As of August 2015, my wife Tammy joins me as the full-time Rock School co-host. That makes four co-hosts now. Name them? OK. Chad P. Best West. Monique Gregoire. And now Tammy. It’s like she’s the lead singer for Van Halen.

It’s only fitting. We met at a radio station in Florence Alabama – WQLT, 107FM. It was a 100,000 watt flame-thrower stuck way up in the corner of the state. I was the afternoon jock and she was the copywriter. That meant she wrote the commercials. We dated even though we had both signed a document at the station saying we wouldn’t.

I knew she really liked me when I got a job programming an AM/FM in Utica, New York and she left with me. We married less than a year later.

She been with me through seven radio stations, six states, a master’s degree and a Ph.D. and two children we adopted from Guatemala. We’ve been married pushing 27 years so it looks like it’s going to stick I guess.

Her? Oh, well, she’s from Hackleburg, Alabama, has two undergraduate degrees which she paid for through work and student loans, a respiratory degree and a respiratory registry. She’s worked at level-one hospital trauma wards in three major cities and has stories that would make your toes curl.

She currently sells drugs – she’s a pharmaceutical rep.

And she hosts a radio show. Did I mention that?
