Radio Imaging production has some… exuberant… personalities out there and Jerry is exuberantier…exuberanter…than most. This was a great interview with Jerry as he has worked at multiple levels of the Imaging Biz including Intern and Vice President and a few things in between. So, he brings a lot to the table. Jerry will be known by some as Producer/Voice at The Buzz in Houston, Imaging producer at Sirius a few years back or the VP Production from Merlin Media when they had Major News properties in NYC and Chicago (plus other stations).

Great work, Jerry!
Agreed!
Great stuff Ryan and Jerry!! Was talking with Eric Chase the other day about the comment I made….How John and Eric and other services “killed” radio imaging…. and, he made me see that “killed” was a strong word…. There’s still very creative imaging guys out there in the business…you’ve interviewed lots of them here…. I just feel, those services made it easier for stations to hire “Joe suckatimaging” the overnight guy to make a station sound………listenable. which, gave an excuse to those random PD’s that are popping up more and more, to NOT hire a CREATIVE imaging guy…. Is the imaging position dead? no…..but, the creative imaging guy IS dying….slooooowly….. The creative imaging guys have their own web-sites…..and the ones who don’t…..are being creative in other ways….voice-overs….etc….. I don’t want creative guys/girls to hear what I said and think there’s no room for them in this business….. RADIO NEEDS YOU!!!! find your way in….and make your statement!!
