WWDB’s Wynn Moore (center) & Alan Jay.

Philadelphia’s WWDB 96.5, was one of the first FM talk stations in the country. From 1975 till 2000, Philadelphia’s daily pulse – politics, food, sports – thumped on WWDB. The initial lineup of talk show hosts included Wynn Moore, Sid Mark (who also hosted Sinatra shows “Friday with Frank” and “Sunday with Sinatra”) Irv Homer, Merrill Reese, and Frank Ford. All shows were locally produced with no syndicated programming. Wynn Moore hosted morning drive, with Alan Jay. The show mainly consisted of characters, voiced by Jay, who would drop in on the show. Callers would also chime in with jokes & humorous observations. Talk radio on WWDB in the 70s was so different than all the heavy political talk you’ll find on talk radio today. -Ellis
