OK, but what IS a ... Program Doctor?

Someone that program makers like to work with. Someone who respects them and "gets it." Someone who knows how hard it is to make great radio, but still aspires to do so. Wikipedia has an entry for "script doctor" but that seems more like an emergency room physician!. Jim is also listed on Wikipedia - see Jim Russell.
