CKTB Morning Man Celebrates 40 Yrs. In Radio

Tim Denis has been the morning man at 610 for 22 years. But he did everything from jocking to being a musician touring with a then unknown Shania Twain before that. He says he got into radio to help pay the bills. (Wow, how little does being a musician actually pay if you have to turn to radio to make money?)

After doing music radio for so many years, Denis found himself suddenly thrust into talk - and he wasn't entirely prepared for it.

“I had no idea what I was in for,” he says. “It was noon to 6 p.m. with no producers, no call screening and no news person in the afternoon. It was just me and a microphone, and after about three days I wanted to kill myself.” 

40 years on air and still going strong

[Edit: Tim Denis is OK, but I still miss the late great John Michael!]

Tim Denis is a consummate pro. Solid cat.
