It’s October 2018 as I write this update and I’m simply amazed that I’ve been active in radio for over 33 years – 21 ½ of that has been spent in the Hudson Valley. I honestly thought I would be here for a couple years and wind up somewhere else … but I guess I really do live here now. I’ve been doing the “Rolling Home Show” since the mid-90’s and it’s been crafted into something that I think is truly representative of my personality. Sincerest thanks to those of you who have shared your enthusiasm for what I do weekday afternoons on WBPM. But that’s only a small part of what keeps me busy.

My main responsibility is management of our Creative Services and Commercial Production Department and Frankenberry – one of our weekend personalities and Miller’s primary fill-in – is my assistant. Together, we are responsible for all of the commercials for all 7 of our radio stations so you will often hear us on commercials for local businesses. And there are a number of other things I’m involved with so there’s no shortage of stuff to keep me busy every day at work. I think you can tell that I’m very passionate about radio; it’s gotta be “in your blood” if you’re going to succeed in this business. But there is plenty of ‘free time’ in my schedule; I enjoy a wide variety of movies and a lot of TV shows – especially British TV shows … skiing, bike riding, bowling, billiards and tennis when I can find someone to play with. I can remember being a little kid and being fascinated with what I heard coming out of the radio. But I think what really inspired
