Listen "Alan Carter, Broadcaster"
Episode Synopsis
Broadcaster Alan Carter talks about getting his start in Vancouver one loooong Honda Prelude drive after graduating from Ryerson’s RTA program, his time as Queen’s Park Bureau Chief, his stint in management as Newsroom Managing Editor, his time on radio at AM640, getting both tear gassed AND tased [separate incidents, the latter by HIS CHOICE], his interactions with Tina Turner/Jann Arden/PJ O’Rourke/Jamie Campbell/Tyler Stewart, his kids’ shock at seeing their Dad’s face plastered on the side of TTC buses, his current role as Municipal Affairs Reporter for CityNews Toronto [brokered by Cynthia Mulligan], and Coach Nick Nurse’s ambivalent response to being informed that they are doppelgangers!
