Tommy Mac first began his radio
career Sunday mornings way back in 1976 in the
small town of Caruthersville, Mo. Where Don Dowdle and Mr. Billie Dee had a popular Sunday morning
Gospel show and invited Tommy Mac on the show to help promote a singing in Kennett Mo.
Where The Happy Goodman Family was performing.
Tommy Mac
came on the show helped promote the event and went back to his normal life.
Soon he was asked to return to the show due to listener request. Tommy Mac
spent his first year on the radio just talking about the gospel groups and
events around the area, he did not even know how to run a turntable, but
the listening audience keyed in on his unique voice and style, along with
the truths it contained and his knowledge of gospel groups. He also spent
this first year on the radio without any pay and says himself now he would
still do it for free except modern radio stations require a lot of money
for their air time. From what was supposed to be a short appearance Tommy
Mac spent 25 years on the radio in Caruthersville as a part time Sunday
morning DJ. He retired from his career outside of gospel music in 2001 for
health reasons and also decided to retire from radio at that time. Tommy
Mac would like to show appreciation for his long time friend and radio
mentor the late Mr. Rudy pilot who had the long running radio show OLD CAMP
MEETING in Kennett Mo. Mr. Rudy a WWII Veteran passed from this life on Pearl Harbor day Dec. 7 2003. He had a great
listening audience and will be long remembered and missed dearly.
Tommy Mac
seems to be called to spread the gospel on the radio for just a short while
after he retired Mr. Tom Hill asked Tommy Mac to come back to radio on
Sunday mornings only, in Blytheville
Ark. Where he is still
assisted by radio engineer Mr. Tom Hill for Tommy Mac still knows very
little when it comes to the technical side of Radio broadcasting. He loves
to talk about southern gospel music and communicate with his listening
audience every Sunday MorningsOnly
