From Welfare to the Airwaves: Jerry Crouth’s Remarkable Ride

On Episode 54 of Radio Split Ranch we sit down with veteran broadcaster Jerry Crouth to trace his life from a humble childhood in Rome, New York to a long career in radio. Jerry discusses his new memoir "Thank You, Mom," memorable moments like appearing on the Match Game, and the family traditions that shaped him.

The conversation also covers Jerry’s decades on Saratoga-area radio, the Singing Valentines program he built, his Oldies Show on 96.1 Star Saratoga, and how passion and chance kept bringing him back to the microphone.
