After my show each day I like to ride 8 to 30 miles on my bike. That's because I’m an average, somewhat overweight guy who loves junk food and hates exercise. Cycling is the only kind of exercise I enjoy. When the weather’s bad I spend 30 minutes to an hour on a stationary bike. I read as I pedal to keep from being bored. I’d rather just read, but it burns fewer calories without the pedaling. I also enjoy TV. I own 4 TiVos so I can record just about everything that’s broadcast on nearly every TV network around the clock, saving it all on hard drives to watch at my convenience. I have two athletic sons, so there’s always a game to attend, fewer now that my older son graduated and no longer plays sports. In two more years his brother will also graduate, and I’ll have to edit my bio and tell you about all the exciting volunteer work I’m doing in my newly found spare time.

Birthday: August 26
Favorite male singers: I like the old ones: Sinatra, Bennett, me in the shower.
Favorite female singers: So many people say they don’t like her, but I love Celine Dion.
Favorite TV shows: American Dreams, Gilmore Girls, Desperate Housewives
Favorite movies: The ones on TV
Favorite actors: Only because I’ve like every movie Tom Hanks has been in he comes to mind.
Favorite books: Right now the Left Behind series
Favorite foods: The kind that are the worst for you
Other hobbies: My new-found addiction is eBay. I can spend hours looking at who’s selling what junk to whom. Unfortunately that’s led to my buying a good amount of somebody else’s junk.
I got into radio because: of a love of music and a fascination with the buttons and knobs and lights and switches and wires and the over-all atmosphere of radio stations.

 

I was born in Pennsylvania, but my family moved to Colorado when I was young, so Denver is my adopted hometown. After grimacing through the Broncos Super Bowl defeats, and still remaining a true fan, it was especially satisfying to see them win back to back Super Bowls during the John Elway era. I gave up bicycling after getting hooked on terrifyingly fast motorcycles and cars. I believe life goes in seasons, and I thank God I survived (and ended) those particular seasons. My wife and I stay pretty close to home nowadays, except for the occasional scenic drive, or hiking excursion.

Birthday: August 08th
Favorite groups: Delerium, Fleetwood Mac, Boston
Favorite female singers:Loreena McKennitt, Sarah Brightman
Favorite male singers:Michael McDonald, Keith Green
Favorite food:Chicken curry, most Mexican dishes
Favorite hobby: Listening to music
Favorite celebrity encounter:Brad Delp (Boston)
Why I got into radio: I was intrigued by the guy on the radio while preparing for school in the morning. At that time, he was having far more fun than I was.
If I weren't a jock:I would’ve experienced life in various U.S. cities, meeting bizarre people…wait, I did that in THIS business!

I grew up in Portland, OR and got to do a lot of traveling because of my father's government job. It's posible he was some sort of secret agent or spy. We lived in east Africa, Spain, and all the biggies. I played radio and TV as a kid, and that led me to get into the real thing. So it all worked out great! I'm also lucky to have a fine wife, two daughters, and three grandkids, though most people tell me I don't look old enough to have grandkids, especially when they see me on my Harley-Davidson Softail.

Got Into Radio Because: The people and the hours are great!

 

I was born in North Dakota, but before I started kindergarten my family moved. I consider Phoenix, AZ my hometown. As a kid, my serious side aspired to be a lawyer, a music or math teacher, or an architect. My fun side wanted to be a radio star like the DJs I listened to on my favorite radio stations. In my second semester of college the fun side won, and I switched my major from music to broadcasting. It turns out you don’t really need a college degree to be in this business. I could have saved some serious tuition money if I’d known it sooner. I’m married and have a teenage daughter. In my spare time I enjoy bike riding (cycling sounds too serious!), taking walks with my wife, watching football, and discussing the condition of mankind, our place in the universe, and whether we can change the deteriorating condition of the world.

Birthday: December 12
Favorite Groups: Rolling Stones, Beatles, Moody Blues
Favorite Male Singers: Roy Orbison, Ray Charles, Eric Clapton
Favorite Female Singers: Nora Jones, Sheryl Crow
Favorite Actors: Gene Hackman, Nicholas Cage, Harrison Ford, Wilford Brimley
Favorite Movies: Thrillers and Action-Adventures with good plots and special effects. There are new ones every year!
Favorite Book: The Bible
Favorite Foods: Mexican and Chinese, but nothing deep-fried or breaded
People would be shocked if they knew: I had a few favorite Neil Diamond songs
If I weren’t in radio: I might have gone into politics

I'm divorced and live alone. (My cat ran away, too) I eat meals right out of the pan while standing over the sink. I'm a good housekeeper, but not obsessively neat. I have joint custody of my daughter, Natalie. She's spoiled rotten. My number one hobby is radio. It's my love, recreation and creative outlet. I can't believe I actually get paid to do it! I spend much of my free time researching music and brainstorming ideas for the "Weekend 70's Show," heard on Saturday night.

I got into radio because: It beats having to work for a living.

People would be shocked if they knew: I don't own a computer, cell phone, or a host of other devices most people can't live without.

I was born and raised in Scottsbluff, NE, son of a carpenter his wife. I grew up in Western Nebraska & Eastern Colorado, mainly in small towns with great family and lots of friends. I loved music so much I got my BA in Music. Even though I trained in classical, I wound up in rock & roll! I’ve been in radio since the early nineties. I’m married to a drop dead gorgeous wife – “Bridgett” and we love music, music and…let me see … music! I have two sons; Bridgett has one son and five daughters. Our heart is in a project to bring hope, support and humanitarian aid to women and children in the Sudan. We hear all about the problems in Darfur, and Bridgett and I are doing all we can to bring aid and hope to these desperate people. http://www.sudanchristianwomen.com
