Gary Buchanan

Gary Buchanan is usually the guy who gets called when nobody else is available as a fill-in on The Wake-Up Call. He can be heard during high school sports broadcasts as well. Gary became a part of the Tallassee Tigers broadcast team in 2006. Shortly after, WTLS was presented the coveted, “Station of the Year” award. Gary’s response to the timing of the honor, “Things that make you go hmmm.”

Gary’s earliest affiliation with WTLS began by recording Marine Police spots. He’s been with the Marine Police since 1995. “My most famous moment was standing up (Michael Butler) on the 4th of July several years ago,” Gary joked. “I don't think my career has recovered.”

Gary’s “Glory Days” were in the Gadsden area. Cue the Bruce Springsteen music. He graduated from Coosa Christian High School in 1985. The Conquerors won three straight Christian School state baseball championships, two Christian school state football championships, and a Christian school national tournament championship. Gary went on to play baseball at Gadsden State Community College.

Gary is married to Barbara (most folks call her Barbie). They met while at Auburn University. Gary was a Bama fan then too. They have two kids, Lauren and Brett. They are members at First Baptist Church in Tallassee. Gary sings an excellent version of “I Can Only Imagine.”
