    Legendary broadcaster Casey Kasem has died earlier this morning at the age of 82.

    Casey Kasem was probably best known to Irish listeners as the host of the AT40 (American Top 40) on Sunday afternoons on Radio Nova.

    Casey was also the voice of Shaggy on Scooby Doo.

    RIP

    Casey wasn't a legend; he was an icon. He made charts shows what they are today.

    As he'd say himself, "Keep the feet on the ground and keep reaching for the stars."

    RIP Casey.

    There are a couple of great You Tube videos of both Big Ron O'Brien and Bruce Vidal doing their stuff on KIIS FM in the 80s. Legends, all now sadly departed.

    One of the best radio icons ever. I used to listen to him on radio nova and it brings back fond memories.
