Paul Harvey Aurandt, or simply Paul Harvey, was an iconic American news radio personality most active from immediately after World War II all the way to near his death in 2009.

He would often read aloud script instructions (onto page TWO!) and he would even read out most of the advertisements himself, which often led to strong personal endorsements (he disliked advertising for products he didn't use). His Rest of the Story segments were usually about little known factoids of history, usually focusing on an ironic twist of character or outcome, or otherwise a little-known but interesting fact.
