Kenny Wardell Kenny Wardell Sr. was adept at working both sides of the radio fence. He was a promo man for RCA Records and was enough of a radio nut dating back to his times at KZAP in Sacramento that he managed do fill-ins on KSAN. He went on to do stellar promotional work for KMEL, then KFOG. He then got into television, at KTVU, and sports, working with the 49ers and with the NFL Pro Bowl before returning to radio, at KCBS. Kenny passed away in August, 2024. This film is dedicated to his memory. Producer
