Capt. Tom Conroy

• Contact

As a kid in the 60’s I grew up in Middle River Md. with my transistor radio, listening to the energy of the Top 40 DJ’s from all over the country at night and knew one day I wanted to have that much fun. In 1971 my “big boy” voice” developed and I did radio for years part time in Baltimore, plus syndication in Philly and Chicago. My dad had a marina growing up, so I spent a lot of time on the water, that led to a career as captain of a 45’ hydrographic survey vessel for the Army Corps of Engineers, handling shipping channels from Ft. McHenry to Norfolk. I was even the captain of the Virginia Dare for several seasons, talk about fun! Legendary radio veteran Glen Lynch started calling me “Captain Tom” back in 2006, that seemed to have stuck. My wife Joyce is also a broadcaster with her show on ultimateoldiesradio.com. We also have two young grandkids to try to keep up with! I love joining you weekday mornings 6-10AM on WYTI and whenever they are in a pinch at B999!
