==Early life==
Jim Bohannon was born in Corvallis, Oregon, but moved with his parents to Lebanon, Missouri while still an infant. Raised in Lebanon, his broadcasting career also began there as he got a job at hometown KLWT-AM in 1960, working for a dollar per hour.〔 Following his graduation from Lebanon High School in 1962 Bohannon attended Southwest Missouri State University in Springfield. While in college he continued to work in radio part-time at KWTO-AM as a news reporter, and at KICK-AM as a disc jockey. One event in 1964 helped set the tone for Bohannon's later career and ability to think on his feet. Presidential candidate Senator Barry Goldwater made a campaign appearance in Springfield, which KWTO was covering by live remote broadcast. However the Senator was running late, forcing the young Bohannon to ad lib on air for over an hour to fill the time. As he told ''Inside Radio'' in a 2003 interview: ''"I called on everything I had in reserve. I was ad libbing and making comments about the campaign. It was like being dumped in the middle of the English Channel and told you needed to learn how to swim. That sticks out as a time I was given a big test."'' Another highlight for Bohannon while working in radio in those early years was taking three busloads of fans from Springfield to Kansas City, Missouri to see The Beatles in concert.〔
