Bob McMahon LIVE On LI in the AM w/ Jay Oliver! by JVC Broadcasting
In this episode of The Real ResQ, we are joined by Bob McMahon, Delaware State Police, pilot, and volunteer firefighter. As a retired police officer of 41 years, as well as an inductee into the Delaware Aviation Hall of Fame, Bob has some great stories. The first story that Bob considers his most memorable is one that has never actually been told until now. During his off time, Bob and his girlfriend (now wife) were spending a day at the beach. While he was alone in the water, he watched a lady and her baby get hit by a wave, causing them to become separated. Being in the right spot at the right time was all that mattered that day as the outcome of this event was determined by a set of little toes. The second story of this episode is about a boat that capsized causing four people to fall into the water. A second boat on scene helped locate the victims and drive them to the beach where Bob was able to land the helicopter. He jumped out of the running helo to help with the victims. Doing everything they could to give the victims the best chance of survival, Bob and crew flew to the hospital wet, covered in sand, and with no communication, landed in the parking lot of the Emergency Room. Our third story is about a diving accident which caused the patient to go into cardiac arrest. Working in tandem with the USCG, 12 miles offshore, they had to come up with an idea to get the medics from the helicopter to the boats. It seemed to be that a jump from the helicopter to the boat was the only real option. Another interesting story that Bob thinks about is not the normal rescue mission many associate with what we do. This one was for a child that needed medication, immediately. Bob jumped into the helicopter, flew to an area where the pharmacy was, landed, and got the attention of the local police to help him out. The plan worked as advertised! We finish our conversation talking about the joys of being an instructor and the great feeling he gets when he sees his students succeed and grow.

We reach all the way back to August 1st, 1992 for this glistening jewel of a broadcast. I’ve titled it: Radiodorant Norm makes a triumphant return to the airwaves after a two-week absence while he convalesced from hernia surgery. It all begins with Bob McMahon from WBZ News and his intro to the Accuwx Forecast w/the lovely and exciting Roy Gallant. Then Norm introduces Jack Harte for Traffic sponsored by IHOP! That Rooty Tooty Fresh and Fruity Breakfast was a bargain! Next, our ears are caressed with the voice of Dr. Lonnie Carton, host of The Learning Center. Sally Six-Pack to Charlie Coke-head were in attendance. Now the big DBG Theme to launch the frivolity. Players: Helen from Boston Jimmy in Winthrop Ann from Everett Joe the Baker Karen Meslener I’m in Studio And Jack Harte. The comedy-soaked Birthdays are spread over FOUR days! Dom Deluise Geoffrey Holder Joe Elliot Norm left a bunch of bdays on the table for 8/1 and refused to divulge who they were! So, we move to 8/3: Martin Sheen And we may have to send search and rescue out to find Ann. Tony Bennett Now on to 8/5 for: Loni Anderson Annnnnnd 8/6 for: Robert Mitchum Other revelations! Norm is fired up for this one. Norm has been remiss in sending out prizes and his 2-week recovery has made it worse. Jimmy is still waiting for his Woodsman’s Weather Stick from 8-months ago. Turns out that was MY responsibility. The sales dept has started locking their drawers and placing notes not use their typewriters! Norm chortles along with Karen. The jokes are so bad Norm feels it may be worse than when he left. He just may have more surgery and take another 3-4 weeks off and hopes I have gotten all the crumby jokes out of my system. Jack Benny has returned in fine voice! Norm was practicing with the nurses at Salem Hospital. Another Birthday Game Scandal may very well erupt There’s only one book in the WBZ Library. Down in the dumps? Depressed? Call Karen. Oh la dee da oh wee ha ha Is Norm dreaming this and he’s still in Salem Hospital? On a separate note…Ann sounds like Ruth Clennott! Post Game: We discover Norm dislikes Mother’s and Father’s Day and Joe the Baker gives a pep talk about Chelsea. Episode 98, Radiodorant, rolls on to your ears….now. normnathanvos@gmail.com
"I looked like I was facing an execution." That's how Bob McMahon's wife described Bob's TV appearances when he first made the jump from radio. "TV's a completely different animal," he says. As the beautiful game's popularity grew in North America, so did Bob's prominence as a soccer commentator on FOX Soccer Report. A native Irishman weaned on football, Bob also brought historical context that helped Canadian viewers enjoy the game and, paradoxically, feel the drama. "But," he adds, "there was a certain line I would not cross."
