Rockin Rich here: Just wanted to say a huge “thank you” to you listeners who have been up with me for the last 15 years here in Northwest PA. I love my job…and do not take it lightly. My life’s motto – Serious Rockin…Serious Fun! As a way to express my gratitude – you can…
So it’s been a hot minute since my last blog post. My food blog www.foodpocalypsenow.com has suffered as well. It’s been a crazy year thus far with my heart issues. Doctor visits and hospital stays for tests and procedures have kept my mind preoccupied. Unfortunately, my blogs and radio show have suffered. Well, that’s about…
Rockin Rich here – Be sure when wishing family & friends a fun filled kick off of summer holiday weekend…please don’t say “Happy Memorial Day”.

This first blog post is called “The Beginning” because appropriately, that’s…
The Grammys have come and gone. All I can say is…woop de doo! Once upon a time, the Grammys were a big deal to a rock radio personality such as myself. It was a night when all of the biggest rock stars were out and up for the biggest awards. Not so much these days!…
