The leader of WTAW Radio’s The Infomaniacs morning show announces his retirement. Scott DeLucia told listeners Tuesday morning (May 26) that his last day is Friday, June 5th. “It’s been the tradition of the show generally that when one of us leaves to go do something different or not do anything at all we kind of announce it ahead of time. And so today it’s my turn.” Scott went on to say “I figure if I’ve done it for 59 years it’s probably enough”, adding “everything’s fine, my health is fine, my wife’s health is fine, we’re just deciding that it’s time to go enjoy the rest of our life that won’t include getting up at 4:20 in the morning. So we’re going to do that.” Listen to “The Infomaniacs Scott DeLucia announces his retirement” on Spreaker.
