Re: WROR bits disc>?
Geeez! I had forgotten all about Addams & Doyle. They really did some
great radio together. Mike Addams (in my humble opinion) is a really
talented guy, and Tom Doyle... Well, we know about his talents.
Unfortunately, that magic wasn't there when management at WHDH teamed up Tom
Doyle with Jess Cain. I think Jess felt a little threatened by Doyle's
presence. I can honestly say that I heard more than a couple of
uncomfortable moments during their morning broadcast. I managed to attend
one of the WHDH promotional harbor cruises featuring Jess and Tom. They
were both very friendly and really funny, especially when the mikes were
"off."
