Gus Saunders, 680 WNAC Boston | June 16, 1961
Unlike many of Boston’s “historic” radio stations, the story behind WNAC and it’s personalities isn’t quite as well documented as 680s later incarnation as Top 40 formatted WRKO. We know that Gus Saunders did news on WNAC for a time and we know from this aircheck that Roy Leonard was heard doing morning drive, although…

Ben Beaulieu, Country 102.5 WKLB Boston | July 18, 2021
New Contributor Ben Beaulieu is possibly the youngest guy in Boston radio, if not one of the youngest in Major Market radio across America! This talented young man is also quite active in local politics. At just 19, elected as one of the selectmen in the town of Merrimac, Massachusetts – something Ben says has…
