    Steve Downes’ presence in LA radio from the late 70s straight through the 90s is still felt today.  He’s been at practically every LA rock station, and his voice is instantly recognizable not just from the airwaves but also his long running role as Master Chief from the iconic HALO video game series.  Great stories in this one, with Rita Wilde and Stew.

    Frazer Smith’s morning reign at KLOS in the early and mid 80’s was a Southern California sensation that was as off-the-rails as it was highly rated.  Chuck provided some counter-balance to the lunacy and continued on to keep KLOS listeners informed well into the Mark & Brian era.  The 2 share hilarious stories of their arrivals in Los Angeles and time broadcasting mornings.

    Recorded just before they went live on air for the Anniversary Special, Mark & Brian play a version of "phrase association." They get 60 seconds (or maybe a little more) to describe bits, events, people etc. thrown at them by Rita and Stew. Lots of great stories and lots of stuff they didn't get to during the radio special.
