This morning was the last show of long time New York radio icon John Gambling. He, his father, John A., and his grandfather, John R., have been on New York radio continuously for the past 88 years. None of John's sons have followed him into radio, so the line has ended.

John has been on WOR, more on than off, since 1978. I have listened to him for most of my adult life, and am not happy to know that come Monday morning, he will no longer accompany me on my morning drive.
