I have worked in Rock Radio for over 20 years, terrestrial on FM, AM & online. These are stories that we come across during the week that we like to share here and discuss freely, without the censorship and time constraints of national broadcast radio.
We try to take a humorous but informative approach to rock news and throw in our self-produced parody commercials for fun.
We make no money from this. Thanks : )
