The Dr. Brian McDonough Show The Cost of Violence
In 1995 I was asked to prepare a five part series called "The Cost of Violence". I recently discovered three of the "air checks"--the actual segments that were shown to the Philadelphia audience. In one of the stories I featured a gunshot victim named Ilene Myers. She is just one of hundreds of people I had the honor of meeting and interviewing for hundreds of stories over the years. Many of the stories that I discover are so old that decades have gone by since I have seen them, but I remember the random nature of how this woman was shot and the courage that she displayed at the time of the interview. This is her story. Her story is one of great courage and optimism.

The Dr Brian McDonough Show: The OJ Simpson Bronco Chase As I Happened
On June 17, 1994 the country was glued to their television sets watching a white Bronco traveling as normal speed along California Highway I-91 followed by dozens of police cars. The "Bronco Chase" is familiar to the vast majority of people in America and throughout the world. Back in 1994, I was working with the Fox Television affiliate in Philadelphia as a medical reporter on the 10:00 pm newscast. Police discovered the Bronco with OJ Simpson at 6:45 west coast time. The Philadelphia 10:00 news (east coast time) began as the chase was just beginning and the newscast did not end until OJ had turned himself in. I found myself reporting live on the air as events unfolded. Recently I discovered that I had a copy of the newscast. There have been many stories about the chase using real as well as "creative" footage. I felt it was important to re create the way it happened, the evening it happened.
