The Dom Giordano Parody Page Biography: During World War II Japanese Radio delivered broadcasts throughout Asia during the war. This included a propaganda campaign directed towards U.S. troops, featuring the persuasive voice of a young Japanese woman who became known as "Tokyo Rose." The broadcasts were very effective in adversely affecting the morale of our fighting men. The U.S. military made it a top priority to find a counterpoint to these influential broadcasts. Every lonely GI wants someone to dream about, and too many were dreaming about "Tokyo Rose." And hence, "GI Giordano" was born. She played the latest records, read mail from the troops, and ended her broadcasts by whispering "Gooooood Niiiiiiighttttt" in a sexy voice that drew spontaneous oohs and aahs from the lonely military listeners around the world. Which brings us to our Local Late Night Radio Host Dom Giordano, aka "Tokyo Dom." Following in his broadcast families footsteps, Dom uses his radio voice to swoon his late night audience. From Truck Drivers and Dock Workers to Bakers and Newspaper Delivery People, Dom's voice makes it easier for these night birds to make it through the night. For almost 15 years Doms was an elementary school teacher in some of the toughest school districts throughout Philadelphia and South Jersey. In the early 1980's he became know as an educational expert in the fields of innovative teaching and the use of motivational techniques with his students. So after becoming an expert in his field, he was out of his teaching job and hired as a talk show host on WWDB. Besides being a talk show radio host, Dom has also appeared on WGBS-TV 57 in Philadelphia as a co-host for the educational program "Profiles of Today's Punks." He was also a guest commentator on WHYY-TV 12 Newscast, offering his sometimes insulting insights on school systems, teacher contract negotiations, school strikes, student achievements and underachievements, motivational issues, and topics for parents focusing on childraising using his patented method of Hooked on Phonics. Dom has also written guest columns for The Philadelphia Inquirer, The Northeast Times, Delaware Valley Parents Magazine, and other Professional publications. Dom maintains extensive ties to education. Because of his visibility as a broadcaster and a former teacher, Dom is in high demand as a school speaker. He appears about 50 times per year at schools throughout the Delaware Valley to announce Lunch Menus. Dom also founded Project Excellence in 1993. This nonprofit organization is dedicated to promoting achievement and student excellence at school and the workplace through literacy workshops and other motivational programs. And did I mention he also sells Hooked on Phonics and Amway Products on the side. Dom is also married, sorry ladies and some guys (not that there is anything wrong with that), to "Roe." He knows he has at least two sons, Luke and DJ. He loves people who demonstrate common sense and integrity. Dom says, "If someone continually gets away with small crimes...when they commit the BIG ONE...it's not a tragedy...it's an equation." Dom also loves Vegetarian Food, Chocolate Chip Cookies (mmm), Rizzo's Pizza (mmm again), Basketball, Golf, Wildwood, Harrison Ford Movies, and The Beatles. If Dom had one wish what would it be. Well we asked him and he said he would like to be stranded on a Desert Island with one of his best friends and Mentor Ed Rendell. Together they could get to know each other a little better and maybe even play some soccer. |
