Mike Ahern on Howard Caldwell

Audio (1:47)

Notes by Jessica VanAllen

Synopsis: Here, Mike Ahern is talking about Caldwell. He makes some jokes; it’s obvious they are friends. He provides information about Cadlwell’s background and experiences. 

0:02 audio starts, Ahern introduces Howard Caldwell, co-anchor of Channel 6 News

*0:30 Ahern gives background on Caldwell: began his career as a newscaster in Terre Haute, 30 years later he’s a television newscaster in Indianapolis, good friends

0:58 joke about channel 6 stuffing Caldwell and putting him in the lobby when he retires

Website clip: I liked this clip because it showed off Ahern’s humor, as well as Caldwell’s legacy.

0:54  IC: “Also, although his colleague…”

1:19  OC: “downtown movie theaters… most of which no longer exist”
