That's
me interviewing New York Congressman Gary Ackerman on his
boat on the Potomac River in Washington, D.C. He invited me
to broadcast live from
the boat during a Congressional inauguration ceremony a few
years ago. |

The
WABC studio. |
This
is the morning team that was assembled when I first arrived
at WABC in 1996. As it turns out, I'm the only surviving cast
member and someone at work took the liberty to point that
out. From left to right: Peter Rief, Penny Crone, Mike Gallagher
and me. |
Every
year, I've been playing practical jokes on listeners for
April
Fools Day. This was a classic. In Denver, art students created
a fake subway
station going down a set of steps at a comedy club. We even
had subway
sounds coming from hidden speakers on the streets.

When
a newspaper columnist in Denver said "George Weber
isn't even good
enough for a small town in Nebraska," the next day,
we went on the road to
Ogalala to do the show---with the help of KOGA, the local
radio station. This is the team going shopping, LIVE on
the air.

For
a day, while at KOA in Denver, my producer, Lori Schroeder
and I got to play clowns for Ringling Brothers circus.
|
I'm
testifying in the case of Santa Claus vs the City of Denver.
I had Santa arrested for impersonating Kris Kringle. We
had a trial in a real courtroom with real lawyers and a
judge and broadcast it on the air on Christmas Eve at KOA.
He was found NOT guilty.
|
 |
After
being found NOT guilty of impersonating Santa Claus, the
great one
grants me an interview.
|
This
is an ad they ran in a local newspaper for my news. "NEWS
BY GEORGE". yeeks. |
That's
me getting some type of an award while working at KIMN in
Denver. |
Look,
I'm the editor of my college newspaper! |

Hastings, the producer of the WABC morning show with Curtis
and Kuby. |
Ken
Berry was my News Director at KGO, a really cool guy who
is now the station manager for KIRO in Seattle.

The
KOA remote truck sends live, studio quality broadcasts back
to the station.

These

Some
lady gives me a check for $100 to help keep student run
radio station, WCSD in Warminster, Pennsylvania on the air.
|
A
listener of my talk show at KTLK in Denver sent me this
picture of her
shrine to me in her home!!!
|
Rosie
Allen, the afternoon anchor for KGO in San Francisco, helps
me put on this dress. It was supposed to be a new fashion
trend and I took the streets to see what people thought. They
called me a sissy. |
Curtis
and Kuby doing their radio show on WABC. |
You
need a press pass to get into certain events. These are some
of them. |

use to hang out here in La Jolla, watching the sea lions
to get away from reality while working at KOGO in San Diego.
