RD80s News: Tom Bodett is not keeping the lights on

Wyatt Bloom June 12, 2025

 
Tom Bodett, most recognized as the voice for the Motel 6 chain, has issued a lawsuit to the tune of $1.2 million plus unspecified damages along with a share of profits.  Since OYO purchased the Motel 6 chain from Blackstone Real Estate in December of 2024, Tom Bodett severed ties due to OYO missing a payment.  You can read more about the ordeal at https://www.insideradio.com/free/motel-6-spokesperson-tom-bodett-sues-chain-for-unauthorized-use-of-name-voice/article_0b98a245-7799-431a-88f6-a89dcc7cc3f6.html

Born and raised in Clearfield, on the back roads is where I spent most of my days. Chillin' at Beef's or snackin' at Sheetz, with a couple of guys that were always good. We never caused trouble in the neighborhood. Spotting for deer never made us scared, but the fear of running out of gas made us get back there. I pulled 180s and donuts, while my friends and family think I'm nuts. All in all, it's hip to be square.
