1. What radio personality influenced you into getting into radio?
A: Began thinking about becoming a "radio guy" at age 7 by rigging a tin can "microphone" and broadcasting out my bedroom window for the 2 older ladies who lived next door.  A few years later I became a huge fan of Duke King, WGBF in Evansville,IN (my hometown).  At age 17 I was hired to do 8PM - Midnight on WEOA, and Duke King left Evansville for a great stay at KOA, Denver.
