I’m so proud to be able to say that I’ve maintained a career in radio for for over 40 years … 30 of that has been spent in the Hudson Valley and 20+ with Pamal Broadcasting. I honestly thought I would only be here for a couple years and wind up somewhere else … but I guess I really do live here now.

Until recently, I had always worked afternoon drive hosting the “Rolling Home Show”; I crafted and tweaked it constantly into something that I was really proud of and that I think was truly unique on radio.  But in October 2026, after our long time friend and morning show personality, Bob Miller, retired, I was moved to mornings and restructured my show into "Rollin' To Work With The Ran-Man".  

I've maintained the daily features I present including Random Notes From Around The Planet and Haven't Heard It For Ages.

Sincerest thanks to those of you who have shared your enthusiasm for what I have done here WBPM. But that’s only a small part of what keeps me busy.

I’m also the WBPM Program Director, Music Director, Image Director, and Promotions Director. I manage our events / appearances and I host station appearances. Getting out of the studio and meeting our listeners is the most rewarding part of the job and I’m incredibly pleased with the success of WBPM since we began managing it in February 2007.

But everything I do for WBPM is my ‘second job’ here. My main responsibility is management of our Creative Services and Commercial Production Department which means I'm working with our sales marketing executives and local clients on crafting their advertising campaigns.  My good friend Steven Frankenberry – one of our WBPM fill in personalities – is my assistant. Together, we are responsible for all of the commercials for all 9 of our radio stations so you will often hear us on commercials for local businesses on all of our stations. 

I learned… many years ago… that to succeed in this business, it’s got to be “in your blood”… but there is still plenty of ‘free time’ in my schedule; I enjoy a wide variety of movies and a lot of TV shows... especially British TV shows... I like bike riding the rail trails, bowling, billiards and tennis when I can find someone to play with.  I very much enjoy watching curling and would love to learn how to do that.

I can remember being a little kid and being fascinated with what I heard coming out of the radio. But what really inspired me to pursue it as a career was the TV show WKRP in Cincinnati. It’s almost 50 years since that show debuted and it still stands up really well today by comparison to what happens here at WBPM… although we’re notably more professional. And I love the fact that the guy who did the end theme to the show sang rubbish lyrics because he knew that CBS would be doing continuity announcements over the show’s end credits when it played … so why bother writing real lyrics? Hilarious and brilliant. In case you haven't seen it... click here.

Thanks for listening to 92.9 WBPM and I’ll be looking for you around town!
