Good day! I happened to hear him when i was in the car on Friday -- first time in well over a decade. He absolutely sounds 89 (which is how old he is today).
And now you know... the REST of the story!

Jeez, I remember listening to him when I was in junior high school--maybe even earlier. And I thought he was old then. (Of course he was older then (1972?) than any of us are now, so I guess that makes him pretty damn old.)

when I worked at ABC we used to cut his shows up to make gag reels -- a snip from a commercial for 3-in-1 Oil and a clip from a spot for Total Cereal became "it's a lubricant -- and it's totally nourishing!" A guy I worked with was on a trip to Arizona in the '80s, and one day around noon he looked out his window at the hotel pool -- a group of 16-year-old girls were huddled around a radio. They'd dropped everything to listen to Mr Harvey. Seriously.
But my favorite story involves Rich Hall, who did a wicked Harvey impression on SNL back then. The only problem was, most of the hip, young NYC studio audience didn't really know who Harvey was...

Yeah, I remember Rich Hall's impression, it was great. I listened to Paul Harvey a lot on my uncle's AM radio in the summer of '77 when I worked on the farm, so he'd have been 59 even then.
By contrast, Beyonce is all of 26 years old today.
