Cool to be on the other side of the mic for once.
Grateful for the opportunity to share my story in the 102.7 CKMS @radiowaterloo studio. Thanks to @yennyintheworld for having me on Community Connections.
It was fun to return to the radio station where It all started for me nearly 20 years ago and come back to talk about what I'm up to nowadays .
Chatted about shooting for the @kwtitans & @cbl_panthers , covering motorsports with @thewwoms , wrestling with @thewwowpodcast , and hosting my radio show How Rock Rolled at @985ckwr .

Throwback to 2010 to the original incarnation of How Rock Rolled at CKMS Radio Waterloo, MANY years before we started to syndicate on FM 98.5 CKWR .
Nearly 20 years ago, back in 2008, I first stepped behind the microphone in Kitchener-Waterloo. What started as a love for radio and music turned into a long run on the airwaves. Sharing the music, the stories, and the moments that make this scene special.
All these years later, I’m still here… still spinning the records, still telling the stories, and still rocking the KW airwaves.
