Donnie Simpson will certainly be missed. He has been the voice of WPGC 95.5's mornings for nearly 17 years, a significant chunk of his 30+ years in radio. The DMV loses a heavyweight over the airwaves. The video below features FOX5's Tony Perkins in the WPGC studios in Lanham, MD with Simpson himself.
Management may have had ought over the future of the show, but this doesn't have to be your last goodbye. ('Managerial ought' seems to be the unwelcome refrain in local radio...no? And if Radio One Empress Kathy Hughes comes fussing at me over the radio one mo'gain about this Congressional bill...)
(I ain't mad tho.)
Ben's Chili Bowl hosts a Fan Appreciation Event for Donnie Simpson TODAY from 12p - 2p. Ben's is located at 1213 U St., right across from U St.-Cardozo Station.
POST SCRIPT
Heeeeeeeeeyyyyyyy...
Anybody feeling another Talk to Me (Kasi Lemmons, 2007)? Taraji P. Henson, Don Cheadle and Chiwetel Ejiofor did tha dang thang. I LOVE that movie! But no, really. Anybody? *Kanye shrug*
