Mike Dineen on 79 WQXI Atlanta | July 20, 1969
Return with us back to Mike Dineen’s morning show. Mike makes mention of the Apollo astronauts ‘floating’ back to Earth at 3,000 miles an hour. The news mentions Vietnam, Chappaquiddick and MLK Jr’s brother. This turns out to be quite an historic reel, judging simply by the news headlines.
Lots of old commercials on this one, too.

I remember hearing him on WFUN Miami doing morning drive as Michael Meyer Dineen.
Then I heard him doing mornings on WXLO New York.
I worked with Mike and Bob Bolton at WBBQ Augusta in the early Sixties, while I was still in high school. They headed for Miami, and I lost contact with them eventually when I decided radio wasn’t for me long term. Would sure like to know where Mike is, and what he’s doing. He was excellent on the air in the early days of Top 40, before corporate radio, and a great guy to hang out with.
Mike is a great guy and one of my best friends. He is currently doing overnights and production at a country station in Augusta GA. (The Bull)
He is a TOP voice-over talent. He also has worked as a jock in St. Louis, Philadelphia, Houston and Pittsburgh. He moved “back home” to Augusta area several years ago.
As a former boss jock working the tail end of cool comercial radio before corprate bullshit. I am from Atlanta this is a great aircheck
Dineen’s a good friend of mine. I work in radio here in Augusta under production.
He’s very modest, it was only recently that I’ve realized that he’s a piece of radio history……I’m only 25 y.o.
I’ve talked about drumming with him a lot. The dude knows his jazz.
