Angelo Cataldi Reflects on His Career at Sports Talk WIP-FM, Philadelphia. In a piece (https://www.audacy.com/kywnewsradio/local-sports/angelo-cataldi-wip-philadelphia-sports-radio-retirement) by Dave Uram published at KYW-AM/FM?s website, retiring WIP-FM morning drive personality Angelo Cataldi looks back at his 33-year career at the Audacy sports talk station. Cataldi is leaving WIP after more than three decades of great ratings. But, as Uram writes, that success didn?t come easily. ?The success of his show was ahttps://www.talkers.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/12/cataldiangelo.png (https://www.talkers.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/12/cataldiangelo.png) testament to him and his teammates placing themselves in the shoes of the listeners ? his fellow sports fans ? by figuring out what was important to them. It took work ethic and dedication every day.? That dedication didn?t make Cataldi an easy person to work with or for, and Cataldi knows it. He says, ?I?m demanding. I have an enormously high standard that I aspire to every day. And I https://www.talkers.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/12/wip.png (https://www.talkers.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/12/wip.png)hold the people that work with me to that standard, to the point where I can?t imagine some days what they?re saying after I walk out.? Cataldi confesses that when he became the lead host, his obsession with perfection took over his life and that did some damage. ?Three years in, I was in a bad spot ? I wasn?t sure I was going to be able to do it. And I ended up getting some help. I was off for three weeks when I was in a clinical depression because I couldn?t deal with the pressure of doing a show.? Uram writes that Cataldi needed therapy and antidepressants. ?I really had to deal with it. And my marriage didn?t survive. It was too much pressure. It was too much stress, and I had a period there of transition ? The people around me understood that I was probably paying more attention to that job than I was to anything else. And that has been the way it?s been. It hasn?t been perfect in my life because I?ve given so much of it over the job.? Cataldi will sign off after the Eagles? season ends and midday personalities Joe DeCarmara and Jon Ritchie will take over the morning drive program.

Former WGN Television and Radio Personality Floyd Brown Dies at 92. The Chicago Tribune reports (https://www.chicagotribune.com/suburbs/elgin-courier-news/ct-ecn-floyd-brown-wgn-radio-obit-st-1214-20221214-z5xllunhx5b77k3j6ozvk3ndyu-story.html) that Floyd Brown, who broke color barriers by being one of the first Blacks hired by a national radio network, died on Friday (12/9) at Advocate Sherman Hospital in Elgin, Illinois at age 92. His obituary says, ?Over thehttps://www.talkers.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/12/brownfloyd.png (https://www.talkers.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/12/brownfloyd.png) course of Brown?s 50-plus-years career, he worked as an engineer, program manager, newscaster, sportscaster and associate news editor and hosted several radio and television shows, including a jazz program, ?The Floyd Brown Show? that aired on Sunday nights on WGN radio.? He first worked as an engineer at WRMN in Elgin, but when a staff announcer was late one day, Brown went on the air. ?He achieved national recognition in the mid-1960s when he was hired by NBC-owned WMAQ in Chicago, becoming the first Black to be hired by a major network. It was such an achievement that he was featured on the cover of NBC?s company magazine with Bill Cosby, who was then starring in the NBC television show ?I Spy.? He would work at WMAQ radio from 1965 to 1970 before moving to WGN radio and television, where he remained from 1971 until his retirement in 1999.?
