Rick and
Ron
April 1981
Rick Gary and Ron Bee. Without question Syracuse's most popular
morning team EVER! If you were to ask anyone in their thirties or
forties if they remember W-O-L-F, they would say "oh sure Rick and
Ron"
Rick Gary did 4 tours of duty at WOLF, first in 1968 in the
news department, then replacing Howie Castle mid-days in December of
1969. He remained until March of 1971 being replaced by Don Ryan.
Then Rick returned again shortly in 1972 only to move on to WMPS in
Memphis and eventually WMEX in Boston. Upon his return in 1975 it
was Rick Gary mornings, with Ron Bee's news. The two were so
successful together it eventually became Rick and Ron until the
stations unfortunate sale and format change in late 1981.
Rick
did mornings, replacing Ed Murphy on WSYR for a number of years
before moving to Channel 9. Ron joined Rick for a short time on
Radio 57, but it just wasn't the same with WSYR's conservative
listeners.
Rick Gary had been seen doing his very successful
morning show "Daybreak" with Christie Casciano (another former WOLF
alumni) on Newschannel 9 in Syracuse for a nearly 9 years. He
was also co-host of Bridge Street with Rick & Julie for some
time.
Ron Bee was the very successful
morning man on B104.7 after doing his stint at WSEN and WEZG for a
number of years.
Remember the march around
the breakfast table, or the morning stretchies? How about "get your
crack outa the sack"? You
will!
