Fletch, aka John Fletcher, gets the scoop on what made Wbap News Talk 820 legendary. Hall-of-Fame radio programmer Tyler Cox shares how he empowered fellow morning show legends Hal Jay and Mark Davis to create dominant shows and how he worked with national legend Rush Limbaugh.

His key observations include:

1. In radio, the words you DON'T say can never hurt you.

2. When you have amazing talent, empower them to do what makes them unique in their own way.

3. Rush Limbaugh would use a razor blade to tear stories from newspapers to create his Stack of Stuff, and he made magic of the news.

4. When I asked Rush if he wanted to have a guest on the show, he said, "I AM the guest... the star of the show!"

5. AM radio station owners constantly thanked Rush Limbaugh for saving AM radio.
