On this day in 1964, the Beatles made their American TV debut on “the Ed Sullivan Show” and were seen by a record 73.7 million people. They were paid $2,400.
- Which, in today’s economy, translates to roughly $723 bucks.
NOTE: Don’t forget the 25th Annual Salvation Army Bed & Bread Club Radiothon is coming up two weeks from tomorrow - Friday, February 24th, from 6am to 10pm. I’ll be back behind the mic broadcasting live from the Oakland Mall - only this year it will be heard on 760 WJR. This is the single-biggest fundraiser for a vital program that feeds 5000 people a day, 365 days a year!
Have a great day and I’ll see you back here with my latest Podcast tomorrow!
