Garry Meier on TV Sunday
Here's a radio guy who's got a face for TV too: Garry Meier, who looks really good for 60 years old.
It's not just about looks, of course, but that's what seems to matter for TV, since we see a lot of vacuous people flapping their gums in front of lots of people just because they have the right smile without too much brain.
But the reason why Garry should be doing more media is because he is a nice guy, professional, a hard worker, and isn't arrogant or jerky at all. I've talked to him on a number of occasions and he's never pulled the "Why are you talking to me? I'm a radio legend you mere mortal."
You can see "The Garry Meier Special" at 10:30 pm on Sunday, July 11 on WCIU. The show will run again at midnight on Saturday, July 17 on Me-TV.
And you can hear an interview I did with him before he got the TV gig (he rarely gives interviews).
