  Speaker 1: All right, wait, I'm trying to remember. It was channel

  Speaker 1: 11 action news and it was Pat Harper, Steve Bosch, right?
• 1:05
  Speaker 3: Uh, that was before my time. I was there when
• 1:08
  Speaker 3: Tamsyn Fidel was on.
• 1:10
  Speaker 2: I was usually during.
• 1:11
  Speaker 3: Either on the weekends or during the week, uh, on occasion. But, um,
• 1:16
  Speaker 3: And so Tamsyn Fidel was on the weekends, and I
• 1:20
  Speaker 3: can't even remember now.
• 1:23
  Speaker 1: Nothing personal, but you can't compare.
• 1:24
  Speaker 2: It's not that long ago.
• 1:25
  Speaker 1: You can't compare Warner Wolf to Jerry Gerrard. Warner Wolf
• 1:28
  Speaker 1: was like the biggest sportscaster in local TV. He was
• 1:31
  Speaker 1: like a giant.
• 1:33
  Speaker 3: Yes, and Jerry was very low-key and very unconventional in
• 1:39
  Speaker 3: his approach to sportscasting.
• 1:42
  Speaker 1: Yeah, but you had the big Channel 4, Channel 2,
• 1:45
  Speaker 1: Channel 11, Channel 9. That was like nothing personal, but
• 1:48
  Speaker 1: that was like the roadshow kind of cast.
• 1:50
  Speaker 2: Oh, absolutely. Warner was the superstar, without a doubt.
• 1:55
  Speaker 1: And who else was there? You had... Sal Marciano, right,
• 1:59
  Speaker 1: for a while? Sal, yeah, I think.
• 2:02
  Speaker 3: Sal took over for, did Sal take over for Warner?
• 2:07
  Speaker 2: Warner got fired at some point, somewhere along the line, somewhere.
• 2:11
  Speaker 1: And then you got Marvin Scott, who's like 112 years old,
• 2:13
  Speaker 1: still doing something. Oh, God, Marvin Scott, my favorite.
• 2:20
  Speaker 2: I would fix his tie before he went on just
• 2:24
  Speaker 2: to distract him. And then all of a sudden he
• 2:27
  Speaker 2: would be like, hey, I like this guy. He was
• 2:31
  Speaker 2: a very nice guy. And Mr. G would come by
• 2:35
  Speaker 2: where I would sit with the program for the night.
• 2:40
  Speaker 2: You got a joke for me tonight? I always had
• 2:42
  Speaker 2: a joke for him.

  Speaker 1: Very nice guy, Mr. G. In fact, if you check
• 2:46
  Speaker 1: out Mr. G's Instagram, he does videos every day now. Yeah.
