Our Town With Host Andy Ockershausen - Homegrown History

Lon Anderson has been friends with Andy O for over 40 years. Listen in to Andy describe the Lon Anderson he’s come to know. “He's a big voice in our town. He's helped us . . .get around town . . . You've heard his voice on radio. You've seen his face on TV news talking about one of the biggest issue that affects us daily. He's been on the pulse of transportation issues." Andy continues, Lon's "name has appeared in The Washington Post more than 500 times - sometimes favorably I may add. He can speak on any topic related to traffic safety, holiday travel, speed cameras, gas taxes and driving in snow. He's been the spokesman for AAA Mid-Atlantic for most of his career. He sits with me on the Board of Directors of the Washington Area Regional Alcohol Program which grew out of some ideas that we had on WMAL years ago, with Jerry Sachs and others and we started this whole effort with WRAP. And, he's my friend of many many years and a great great citizen of Our Town.” Lon Anderson and WMAL Andy consid
