Most folks cruise past homeless people without a second thought. But one reporter, inspired by a homeless man's odd sign, decided to stop for a chat. Their videotaped exchange quickly went viral.
On most days, Ted Williams (no relation to the baseball legend) stands on a corner in Columbus, Ohio and holds a sign asking for money and boasts of his "golden radio voice."
The reporter for the Columbus Dispatch asked Williams to speak in his radio voice and Williams did not disappoint. Williams explains that he was once a radio announcer. Drugs and tough times ended his career.
The clip, which you can watch below, has earned a slew of views. There is now a movement to get Williams a job in radio. As the man himself might say in his slickest voice, keep it right here for updates.
