TRIVIA ANSWER:<\/strong> Barry Gray is generally considered the father of the Call-In Radio format. In 1945, as a WMCA-570 NYC DJ, bored with spinning music, puts the telephone up to his microphone. The caller is one of the most popular celebrities of the day bandleader Woody Herman. This live interview is such a hit that the talk radio format begins.<\/p>\n
