Old Cars in the Driveway – each month, Jim Motavalli and Peter Bush interview car owners, auto restoration experts, and car enthusiasts from the 1930s to the 1990s.
Believe it or not, I’ve been on WPKN since 1973. Over the years, I’ve served as program director, news director, music director and librarian (I think). There are so few stations left that are not strait-jacketed by rules and enforced formats. At WPKN, each programmer is free to create, across genres. The same freedom applies to our news and public affairs programming.
Peter Bush is a veteran radio DJ who’s spun music on WINE, WRKI, WAVZ, KC101 and WABC 77 in New York. He was the last disc jockey hired for the legendary AM Top 40 powerhouse. Peter hosted the last regularly scheduled music show the night before WABC switched to talk the next day. Bush went on to a three-year stint at 95.5 WPLJ. His most steady job was hosting the first generation “Breakfast Show” for six years at WEBE 108 in Bridgeport, followed by a 14-year stretch in afternoon drive.
