Gordon Keith (aka The Great Gordo) is a radio host on the three-time Marconi-nominated Dunham and Miller morning show on KTCK Sports Radio 1310 AM "The Ticket" in Dallas, Texas. He has shared hosting duties (but not the billing) with George Dunham and Craig "Junior" Miller since 1995. [1]


His role on the show is a non-traditional one that includes providing comedy relief and thoughtful observations. Keith's regular segments on the show include "The Observation Deck," "Muse in the News" and "Gordo's Corner" along with voicing fictional guests (with co-host Dunham) most days.

After joining The Ticket as an intern in 1994 and co-hosting a short-lived weeknight program, Keith became an itinerant regular on the station's midday shows despite the fact that he is not a typical sports fan. Eventually, Dunham and Miller moved from its afternoon time slot to the coveted morning drive and took Keith with them. In that time, he has developed into an accomplished impersonator whose irreverent characterizations include famous sports figures like Jerry Jones, Nolan Ryan and Tiger Woods, along with local figures that include his fellow hosts at the station.

Keith currently writes a humorous column for the newspaper Quick DFW [2] and in 2000, he wrote Buff Tanner: Total Man, a parody of self-help motivational books. [3]

After serving in supporting roles on television for many years, Keith debuted his own self-titled variety show, "The Gordon Keith Show", on KFWD-TV Channel 52 in February 2007. His fledgling film work includes the role of Frank Sellers in 2003's indie feature Shtickmen and voice work in DNA Productions' animated Nanna & Lil' Puss Puss in 'Nanna's Fun Chest' in 2000. [4]
