Meet
Rick Roddam, one of the funniest people I have ever met in my life, and I know funny! Normally I like to write a little something about the person I am eViewing but
I have to share Rick’s bio that he submitted because it's better than anything I could have come up with!
Rick grew up in the 'burbs of Chicago and Denver hoping to someday be just like
Jonathan Brandemeyer or Lewis and Floorwax. Sadly, he never amounted to
much. Starting his career at the legendary KILO in Colorado Springs, Rick
completely wasted the expert advice given to him by kick-ass programmers like:
Rich Hawk, Don Jantzen, Ditch, Ross Ford, Kevin Callahan and Travis Daily.
He somehow landed in Fresno, CA, where his depraved antics managed to fit
in well at another legendary Active Rocker, KRZR. After 5 years of
learning at the feet of E. Curtis Johnson, Rick set off on a series of
miserable failures. After ill fated attempts to host a CHR morning show,
a Hot AC morning show and a classic rock morning show, Rick was somehow
given the chance to program a classic rock/classic hits combo for a fledgling
group who clearly couldn't afford to hire a better candidate. After
doubling the ratings and forcing a 21 year heritage competitor to flip formats,
Rick was sold out by "The Man". He's now turning tricks for
drugs in Fresno's Chinatown District while looking for work as an air talent or
programmer.
