Join me every weekday morning from 6:00-10:00 for the best music anywhere on your dial, plus fun stories, factoids, interviews with local and national figures and lots of laughs along the way. Among my most popular features are the Sports Spotlight, the Singer's Showcase, the World War II File, Wacky Inventions, the Movie Showcase Cinema, Real or Not Real?, and the Watercooler Conversations (with fellow DJ Leslie Ann. ABC News pops up at the top of every hour to keep you in tune with what is going on in our world, and we keep our thumb on the pulse of the local news stories you need to know about with six local news broadcasts each morning. It's a great mix of music, laughs and news every morning. I start out at 6AM sharp and don't quit until I am outta here at 10...on my way to hunting me down "a meatball with my name on it!"
