I know it's TV, but if anyone can ID a guy I saw a few times on TV almost 20 years ago, someone on this board might. It was on Cornerstone's WPCB-40 in Pittsburgh. (The network's flagship right?)
He was a muscle-bound black guy with Jheri curls who hosted a talk show with an in-studio audience that was almost all-white. He may have been based in Richmond, VA (read on) and his on-air style owed a lot to his contemporary Aresnio Hall. The intro, done in a pixelated MTV style, showed a girl arguing with her parents, fleeing, ending up in a bad neighborhood and getting menaced by a couple of punks. Cut to a scene of black guy's eyes reflected in his rear-view mirror, and then his Nissan Z with personalized Virginia tags rolling to her rescue. Punks get scared off, he takes girl home and rides off like the Lone Ranger.
Aside from the admittedly cheesy touches, I remember the guy because he had secular kids who often disagreed with his message. I've mentioned him on radio boards over the years but never got any closer to ID'ing this mystery man.
