Where Are They Now? If you are looking for a Los Angeles Radio People from the past 55 years, click the letter of the last name. Once you are on that page, the LARP are listed in alphabetical order

Every May, 50 active LARPs from all areas of station management, programming, on-air talent, promotion/publicity, engineering, news/sports, news/traffic services, support staff, and non-commercial are asked to submit a list of their Top 5 Best on-air personalities and Top 5 Best off-air people.

The 50 LARPs are chosen at random from all station formats, call letters, and ownership. If you are a subscriber and employed by a station in Southern California, please request a ballot at db@thevine.net. 

The ballots are held in strict confidentiality to allow freedom to vote. The #1 vote receives 5 points. The #2 vote receives 4 points and so on. Everyone is asked to make a comment about each person they are voting for, and again, those comments will run anonymously.

It is the hope that those who receive a ballot this month will take a few minutes to submit their favorites. This is truly peer group voting for their peers. This is the same procedure used by the Academy of Motion Pictures to vote for the coveted Oscars. No one outside of radio participates in the voting. I do not participate in the voting. The countdown of the Top 10 will be disclosed over the course of the summer, beginning next month. 

Winners in 2000

#10 Mark & Brian (KLOS)	# 9 Harry Shearer (KCRW)	# 8 Chick Hearn (KLAC)	#7 Tom Leykis (KLSX)	#6 Ryan Seacrest (KYSR)

#5 Kevin & Bean (KROQ)	#4 Vin Scully (KXTA)	#3 Phil Hendrie (KFI)	#2 Howard Stern (KLSX)

#1 Rick Dees (KIIS)
