With the finish line in sight, he invites listeners to walk beside him through the winding, unpredictable, often hilarious journey that shaped his 46-year career. From sleeping in a campus studio in Waterloo, to spinning records in Guelph, to finding his voice in Montreal and eventually becoming a Toronto institution, Oakley shares the small breaks, the strange encounters, the sleepless nights, the lucky accidents, and the characters—famous and infamous—who helped forge a life in broadcasting. A victory lap filled with stories that remind us why live radio matters. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
