Randy Kerdoon 

Growing up in the car capital of the world, Southern California, native Randy Kerdoon couldn’t miss the shiny cool cars on LA’s freeways and side streets!  After spending over 40 years as a multi-award-winning sportscaster, he also found a way to develop a love of cars from a certain era! While manning the mic in Los Angeles, he also reported on the classic car community over KNX 1070 Newsradi. Randy won awards with stories from SEMA, the Barrett-Jackson auctions, and about future plans to bring the

DeLorean back as an EV. In 2014, Randy began a classic car podcast called “Talking About Cars with Randy Kerdoon” which continued until 2021, gathering awards of its own along the way. Randy has also MC’d many Southern California car shows including the “Chrysler Performance West” “Spring Fling” in Van Nuys, CA., VTAC, LAPD show in Woodland Hills, CA, the Huntington Beach, CA “Concours de Elegance”, and many others with his podcast co-host Bob Beck.
