I'd say it was sometime around 1993 that he went to CJAY. He was definitely there by early 1994.

He was originally on CHFM in the early 90s. In late 1991 or early 1992, he very briefly went to QR77. Then, he went up to Edmonton to work for the Bear for a short period of time before returning to Calgary and taking over the CJAY morning show.

For FM maybe...I know that in Saskatoon Denny Carr was on CFQC radio doing mornings for 30 years, more if you consider different call letters but the same spot on the dial the same station. Brent Loucks has been on CKOM in the mornings since the mid 80's, even transitioning with that station from Top 40 to News Talk

What happened to Penny Murphy? Weren't they together?

There's no Saskatoon nostalgia thread so you'll have to excuse this tangent...

Last I heard, they had formed a media company and she was running it. I believe they are still married.

You can make a good case Howard Stern is one of the greatest entertainers of our time. As an interviewer he make Barbara Walters look like Eric Francis in comparison.
