Rollin & The Morning Show
Send me e-mail
Rollin has been working radio since he was a "baby". That's the only explanation to the fact that he's on his 34th year and yet is hardly out of puberty.
From the time he used to make his mom listen to him intro records (kids ask your mom what a record is) while she did housework to today, Rollin has always enjoyed radio.
Over the years he has worked and /or owned other businesses in and out of the area. He would do a morning radio show and then go "to his real job". In the early 90's he sold his business at the mall and has since devoted his full time to radio.
Rollin enjoys the challenge of entertaining, informing and being a part of his listeners mornings and lives. He starts his day out early at 4:45 a.m. when the alarm wakes him. Working in his office at home he prepares for the day. Then arrives at the station and often throws everything out the window and let's the listener set the pace.
When not on the air Rollin enjoys sharing life with his wife and children. He sits on the boards of the local associations for football and basketball officials. Rollin has been the track announcer at Redwood Acres Raceway for nearly a decade.
Rollin and his wife both enjoy the excitement of riding their motorcycles around the country. Don't be surprised to see them leathered up and biking to some Harley event somewhere.
