Let me introduce myself to you. I'm Jim Casey, the guy keeping you company late in the day on Today's Best Country. Now, for some of you, I'm reintroducing myself, because you used to find me hanging around some time back. I guess it's true what they say about the bad penny always turning up, because here I am, hanging around again.
I knew I wanted to be on the radio pretty early in life. I was one of those kids you could never get to go to sleep at night. When mom and dad would come to check on me, they'd find me under the covers with a flashlight, a comic book, and my transistor radio. I used to love to tune that radio across the dial and hear the voices coming from what seemed like far off lands. Usually it was no more than a couple of states away, but it seemed far off to me.
When I was in the 8th grade, I took my first speech course, and the teacher told me I had a good voice for radio. That sounded pretty good to me. I thought, "Boy, if I could be on the radio, I'd be rich, famous, and I'd never have to work for a living!" Well, in all honesty, I guess I never really have worked all that hard. In this case, one out of three ain't bad. I toured Mexico as part of hard rock boy band for a while
Radio has taken me to a lot of those places that I used to hear through the static on that old transistor radio under those covers more years back than I'm willing to admit to now, and they've brought me to the Best Country Around to spend the day with you. Thanks for listening... It keeps me from having to work for a living! If you have any ideas on getting the rich and famous part of the dream, let me know!
Jerry Walker keeps insomniacs and third-shifters company with topical discussions, late-night audience interaction and a wide-awake attitude. This radio veteran has more than 35 years of on-air experience for various stations in Canada and Texas.
It all began for Jerry Walker when he was a kid in Brooklyn, NY. He remembers using some rather primitive radio equipment to "broadcast" a show to his neighborhood.
"I had a Lafayette Electronics Transmitter and a Webcor record player," he says. "I think the signal reached about three blocks, but the produce manager at the local A&P loved it and provided me with all of the eggplants I could ever want."
These days Jerry broadcasts on a signal that reaches a little farther. As the overnight host of the Best Country Around, he's happy to be finally heard by more than two or three people at a time.
A career in radio was Jerry's lifelong goal, and he claims that the highlight of his career before coming here was his work with WBAP, Dallas. "WBAP's signal covers 42 states," he says. "It's kind of humbling to realize that your voice is being heard by well over half the country during certain times of the day."
"Country music is the mainstream music of today," according to Jerry Walker. "And I'm glad I was born in the South. The SOUTH SIDE of Brooklyn!"
Jerry and his wife, Tina, have been married for 30 years. They have a college-age son, Robbie, who is starting to show signs of an interest in radio. He thinks it's a great career choice, especially if you enjoy being in a small room by yourself with a microphone.
