Working in radio I’ve met quite a number of minor celebrities in my time. When I went to broadcasting school I ran into Gordon Jump (WKRP in Cincinnati) in the lobby of the building my school was in, while working on a morning show in Fresno in the early 90’s I met Benjamin Bratt (who would go on to date Julia Roberts and star in movies like Demolition Man, Red Planet and TV shows like Law & Order) and JJ Walker from the 70’s sitcom “Good Times”. Recently I met Grant Goodeve who played “David Bradford” on the late 70’s TV series “Eight Is Enough”.  He couldn’t have been a nicer guy. He’s 64 now if you can believe it! In the photo above he doesn’t look a day over 45.

What’s really ironic is that I’m in a position to meet a lot of big stars (Blake Shelton… probably my favorite, Tim McGraw, Russell Wilson from the Seahawks, Gwen Stefani, Warren Moon etc.) along with the minor celebs but I’m the last person to actually care whether I meet them or not. That said, most have been very nice which makes the divas (I’m not saying who) really stick out.
