AIRCHECK OF THE WEEK
Edition #1372 - November 9, 2025

WEIRD BEARD
WAKY Louisville, KY
November 20, 1968 (UNSCOPED)

(Contributor: Joe Fazio)

He was wacky ... even for WAKY!

Weird Beard - real name Carl Mackert - jocked at the Louisville station from 1966 to 1971. Not to be confused with Russ "Weird Beard" Knight of KLIF and KBOX fame, this Weird Beard lived up to his reputation as one of the highest energy jocks of the Top 40 era. Thanks to super-contributor Joe Fazio, we get to hear the "Weird Beard" again in all his glory.

Enjoy Weird Beard on WAKY from November 20, 1968 (UNSCOPED) ... in the Aircheck of The Week.

NEXT UPDATE: November 16
