Congratulations to Jim Richards who joined the esteemed Newstalk 1010 family twenty years ago today.
Jim modestly mentioned his anniversary on his show, turning it into a classic radio bit and Mayor John Tory called to mark the occasion.
Few people last that long on-air, in broadcasting, and these days, in any company.
Keep doing what you do Jim, well done sir.

Not that they would ever want to go back to those shifts; but I always felt that Oakley and Richards; when they did late night; on 'RB were at their best. It was like early Letterman for the ears.

I remember when Jim was the morning guy on Rock 95 in Barrie. He used his real last name back then. He is such a good guy and has had a great radio career.
I am lucky to have worked with him for 3 of his 20 years (and counting) at Newstalk.
