https://www.radioworld.com/news-and-business/news-makers/larry-walk-60-years-of-oom-pahs-and-smiles      Thanks again, Boomer, whom I believe runs this dude's show. I am surprised that he's not huge in Buffalo, NY, where every weekend at least one AM station would do hours of Polka Music. (Some of you WNY'ers know exactly what I'm talking about there, right?) Gotta' give this guy kudos for keeping it going.
Correction:  Boomer runs a show called Oompha Hour. (There, my C.M.O.A..)
