I’m one of the luckiest guys on the planet. When I was a kid listening to the radio, I thought that it was the best job in the world and decided that it’s what I wanted to do. I started working in radio at age 15 at the dumpiest little AM radio station you could imagine. It was in the suburbs of Boston and was so woefully under-staffed that everybody who worked there did every job. In retrospect it was a great experience. Along the way I’ve worked with some incredible people, picked up an award here and there, and have had more fun than anyone really should be allowed to have. To this day, I get to go to work doing the only job I ever really wanted to do. Studio Big is a very cool broadcast facility so I’m doing that job in a great place that connects me to what I consider to be the greatest radio audience in the world!
