I worked in an auto shop when I was younger. The only time that shop got quiet was when Paul Harvey came on. Lord help you if you interrupted the time with the sound of an air impact!!!
I love that. That's some down home America right there, guys working in a garage, and being quiet when Paul Harvey news was on. Probably had a coffee maker in the shop, a Snap On calendar on the wall somewhere, and were closed on the first day of fishing season!
It was only by chance I came across the Dodge truck commercial, and that had me out looking for some of his news, and "rest of the story" on Youtube, and I got lucky. I loved listening to the PH News, and miss that paced reporting of variety of local news no one else does.

You sent me down the rabbit hole on this one. I miss that calming voice of reason that we so desperately need today.
