His talk radio career took him to many great station across the country, like  WIBG Philadelphia, WMEX in Boston and WBBM in Chicago. In 1968, he returned to Boston on WBZ for eight years. In 1976 he was on WMCA in New York, then back to Philadelphia on 96.5 WWDB, where he became the first FM radio talk host.
