My first WHAS Radio guest is still making sausage 35 years later
📻 Today begins my 35th year as afternoon host on @840WHAS. @OldFolksSausage king Allen Purnell Jr., my very first guest in 1985, will join me on the air so we can catch up. 📲 https://t.co/EMYwUGhNZA #loumedia #longevity #radio #localradio #localbiz #sausage pic.twitter.com/45RNs7NIeC — Terry Meiners (@terrymeiners) December 2, 2019 Somewhere in the WHAS audio files is a promo that Al Purnell recorded for me on Monday, December 2, 1985 after his appearance on my radio show. In one take, the Shelby County icon barked into the microphone, "Hello friends, Allen Purnell here. Every afternoon I have my tractor radio set to Terr-uh Minur on 84 Dubya H-A-S, cuz he's gooooooooood!" It's still one of the best promos in Louisville radio history. Thanks, Mr.
