TPIR Announcer and model schedule for Feb.

[quote name=\'uncamark\' date=\'Jan 27 2004, 08:24 PM\'] Art Astor, a longtime radio personality in the area.
And a radio station owner in San Diego.  He also was an executive for Drake-Chenault, the programming company run by Bill Drake, the man behind "Boss Radio."

An article I found on him from Google from last year says that he's 77 (perhaps 78 by now).  That's right, an announcer only a few years younger than Barker. [/quote]
 Gene Wood is that old, and Charlie O and Johnny G. are almost that old. Seems weird to see a 70-something announcing for Fremantle, but we'll see how he does.

I don't think age is a factor when you are not on camera.

I would think longevity, more importantly, the right fit, is a consideration.

I think that Charlie O'Donnel could be PiR's announcer, but only on days where Plinko is played.  Judging on his 25k announcment on Wheel, he could master the reveal of Plinko.

 Yes, absolutely, let's hire a guy based on how he says ONE THING.
