The Night Run starring Dion McElrath

Another Late Night show is coming to Dayton! The Night Run starring Dion McElrath will be premiering soon on DATV!

Born and raised in Dayton, Dion is a long-time lover of all things Late Night, and during our chat, he regaled us with many interesting trivia facts about all of the Late Night greats.
