How lucky am I? Wow. I am sending major love to all of you for being a part of this wild rock and roll adventure. Being on the radio has been so rewarding. There are so many things I get to do each and every day that I am so grateful for. WMMR is a place where I feel I can truly be my vampire-y self.
Thank you to all who believed in me from the beginning, the people I have the privilege of working with every day, and to my loyal listeners. You guys are my FAMILY!

And now here are 7 more, elaborated on a bit:
On Air With Jerry Blavat and Preston & Steve

Hosting Black Crowes On My Birthday
Getting to host my favorite band's show? Fantastic. Getting to do it on my BIRTHDAY? Surreal. It was the absolute best way to spend the day. I got to hang with the band and listen to their music all night. What an honor.
Getting The Blues With Larkin Poe

One of which that has been particularly great has been my friendship with Larkin Poe. Those girls can ROCK, and I always enjoy getting to talk to them. They seem to like me, too!
Casey's Big Adventure
I got to do two of these. One to the Pacific Ocean, the next to Arizona for the "BIG GAME!" Road-tripping with my boy Caseyboy has to be one of the most fun experiences I've ever had. It was unreal getting to drink in the beautiful sights and sounds of the U.S. while driving. We stopped and saw so many great things along the way.
Escape Room With Bill Weston
The video kind of speaks for itself. I loved to torture my boss, even if only for like an hour. This was quite a memorable stunt.
Hanging with Rick Nielsen

Todd Rundgren
PhotoHanging with Todd Rundgren during the Philadelphia Music Alliance Walk of Fame Ceremony and Gala was incredible. Delco's own Todd Rundgren was amazing company. It's a great memory to look back on. I had so much fun.
