This Won't End Me: Corey Cooper

January 21, 2026 · 50 min

Show notes

Ever since he heard announcer Johnny Olsen say "Get ready to match the stars!" while in the audience of the TV show Match Game, Corey knew that broadcasting would be his calling. Embarking upon a career that has spanned successful radio DJ gigs to breaking news as a Producer, to ensuring the quality of TV and radio in Master Control, Corey has fulfilled dreams of being a part of the entertainment industry.

 

Corey was diagnosed with two cancers at once, and then had a stroke, which took partial eye vision away.


Corey has faced his fears and challenges head-on, not letting them end him.
