I’m married to the greatest woman on the planet (Jules) and we have two dogs, (Eugene the Basset Hound, and Fletcher the Black Mouth Cur). I get to wake up every morning and hang out with my friends (even if I can’t see them) I’ve done this radio thing for over 25 years and I can’t imagine a better life. My responsibilities included taking out the trash, recording the weather on the Weather Line and making sure the station didn’t burn down.Īt some point after, someone made the decision to actually let me talk and be on air (pretty sure they were reprimanded for that) and the rest is history. Finally, my shot came and at 17, I was hired part time. At 16, I had a weekly spot on a local AM station to do the High School News. I would use the ads in the newspaper as commercials I would read the news and do the weather. The music, the DJs, all of it!Īt 12, I was in my room making fake radio shows with a boom box and a tape recorder. My dad once told me, “If you put as much effort into school as you do listening to that radio, you’d be on the Honor Roll.” He wasn’t wrong however I was obsessed with the radio. While most kids were doing homework or outside playing, I was listening to the radio.
