The mad daddy of Cleveland horror movie hosts, Pete Myers, in action here in a commercial spot on his hugely popular radio show back in the late 1950's. He was an unmistakable influence on Ernie "Ghoulardi" Anderson (who had worked with Myers) when Ernie began hosting horror movies himself in 1963. Moving to New York, his Mad Daddy persona eventually fell out of favor, and he took his own life in 1968.

  • Has anyone got any more Mad Daddy shows? I've got a few but I'd love more!

  • The audio is from a radio commercial aired on WHK 1420, Cleveland, in 1959, shortly before Pete Myers left for New York. "The Mad Daddy" was an incredible talent. Thank you for sharing and, yes, R.I.P. Pete Myers.
