Scott Woodside All 70's Request Show B98.5 Atlanta-WSBFM-1994
Back in 1994 I was "courted" by WSB FM program director Phil Locasio and afternoon drive time personality and music director Kelly McCoy to do an all 70's request show.
I was really excited because at the time I was not in a radio show and working out of town. Stupid me, I didn't even ask how much it was going to pay, but I assumed it was going to be a lot of money, right?
Wrong. After two weeks of all request shows, I asked the powers to be what my pay was. Can you guess? $25.00 per hour. I freaked out, but figured if I did a good job, maybe they would put me on full time.
Two years later, I quit and never looked back. WSB is a great place to work. Cox media. But they rarely hire full time employees.
I had to move on and find full time employment. Great people, great equipment, and a great company. But impossible to live on a part time income with no benefits.
Once you're full time, you've got a job for life, but that's another story. I found an old cassette tape and converted it to an mp3 and heavily edited it down from two hours to less than 20 minutes. Hope this brings back some memories. it did for me.

Scott Woodside with Partners Jim Elliott and Barry Chase
Doing a morning radio show in the Nation's Capitol was just about the best high that any radio broadcaster could ever have. Jim Elliott and I were the number one radio show in Washington DC for ten years. From 1978 to 1988. This is a short air check using the drop that President Ronald Regan recorded for us. He listened to our show believe it or not, and we were invited to the White House numerous times. The ultimate was when we received an invitation to MC his inaugural gala! We accepted and I guess you'll just have to wait until the book comes out.
There's also a little radio clip from 1977 with my other partner, Barry Chase. Hell for years, people thought my first name was And. Get it? ___________ And Woodside.
Audio is from WRQX Washington DC (ABC) & WQXI Atlanta

Elvis Death Live 1977
Wow, this is a find. My partner, Barry Chase, and I were doing an afternoon drive time show on WQXI Atlanta all the way back in 1977 when all of a sudden, our news guy Hank Schmidt told us that Elvis was dead and he needed to go on the air with the Flash/Bulletin. Well, he did and the rest as they say is history. Listen to the entire audio and you'll hear reaction as people learned of his death. He was at the peak of his career when he died and we were on the air to capture history. Listen for music great Bill Lowery eulogize Elvis. There's also a clip of former Capricorn founder, Phil Walden, but it was cut out. Something happened. The tape I found had to be edited and some of the stuff, because it was on an old cassette had to be edited and processed. Hope you enjoy!

Chase and Woodside "On The Cover of Atlanta Magazine
Back in 1988 I had an idea for a song to get my partner and I (Chase & Woodside) on the cover of Atlanta Magazine. There was a great classic rock song written by Dr. Hook, called on the cover of The Rolling Stone. The group sang the song, and got on the cover. Well, I rewrote the song, and Barry and I recorded it in jest to see if we could get on the cover.
Well we got noticed and a blurb was written about our covert activities by the Atlanta Magazine, but never got on the cover.
Chase and Woodside had the number one morning radio show in Atlanta from 1988 to 1991. But as they say, "Nothing lasts forever."
We had a ball but the consultants got the best of us.

Testimonial
I used SitePal for my video production but wasn't happy with
the voice I used, so I asked Scott for help!
Scott really came through for me on my latest project.
His quick service (even during a holidays) and great
sounding voice helped me quickly get up and running.
I can't wait to see how its increases my conversions.
Many thanks for a job well done!
