ReplyDeleteThe sports guy clip at the intro is gold.
ReplyDeleteThree people there now gone,Joyce,Pete and Martin Wyatt. And whatever happened to Carol Ivy? she was at 7 forever,then gone-but hopefully still alive.
ReplyDeleteWait a minute. Martin Wyatt hasn't passed away has he? I know he retired in 2007. Anyone know?
ReplyDeleteMartin Whyatt is alive and well.
ReplyDeleteSorry-I meant the other sports reporter in that vid. Mark..somebody? He died of a heart attack at a gym.
ReplyDeleteNice report from Joyce. Typical blowhard nonsense from Pete.
ReplyDeletegod i miss pete wilson, especially on kgo-am. Gil Gross is borrrrrinnnngg. he always agrees with everything everyone says. pat thurston should be in that spot.
ReplyDeleteCarol Ivy is alive and quite well, living in Marin County with her husband, ex-KGO reporter Ed Leslie.
ReplyDeleteI had a crush on Carol when she worked at Channel 7 and years later, got to tell her that when we rode the 4:10 ferry from San Francisco to Sausalito. The fun people would occupy the rear deck with a drink or smoke or both. I wonder if she remembers me?
