Zach Martin is a rock and roll straight shooter who beefed up his chops on the tough streets of New York and North Jersey. Zach's heart is even bigger than his large ass and when he isn't behind the mic he's quietly working on various charity events. He recently committed his life to health and fitness and was the subject of a reality show on the Discovery Health channel in March of 2005. While the Zach Martin Show is a huge priority, he also enjoys spending time with his wife and young daughter living out the American dream.
Fendrich grew up in the Pacific Northwest and while he doesn't jog or chop wood; he can hammer espresso and uncork an Oregon Pinot Noir at light speed. When he's not spewing useless Classic Rock knowledge or complaining on The Real Show, he wastes his day killing teenage opponents on Xbox Live, walking his Greyhound or dodging responsibility of any kind. Fendrich somehow married a total hottie, although his inability to be "real" with her makes the threat of sleeping on the couch a constant possibility.
Tom Collins was born a poor farm boy in South Dakota. His talent behind the microphone has helped ruin many a radio station. When he's not on the air he can be found test-driving manufacturer's review cars on sheet metal ramps and logs in the back woods. Mr. Collins is a published author and a nationally recognized expert on a number of arcane topics (we could list them, but the number is far too great to comprehend). He lives in a double wide with his kids and his Misses. His vast collection of Slim Whitman records is housed 30 feet below the surface of the earth in a concrete bunker.
Fry has been an actor since 1995. He was in over 20 films and television shows while living in Los Angeles over a period of 8 years. Lately the only acting jobs he's gotten is acting like an idiot. Fry got back into radio last year and is only too happy to share his starving L.A. stories with you. He is also a musician and songwriter and has released two albums. He loves to play his Martin D-28 acoustic guitar when he isn't watching his favorite teams on his flat panel house payment television. But maybe Fry's biggest passion lies in Classic Rock. That of course, and dressing in women's clothing...
Dusty is a recovering drummer who worked his way through school playing Broadway show tunes in the pit orchestra at a suburban Washington, DC dinner theatre. Later, he worked the middle-Atlantic club circuit in an otherwise all-girl, all-hottie glam-rock band you’ve never heard of. No, he didn’t get any. Unfortunately, the band had a hands-off-each-other policy. Before long, the band members’ “cycles” all got in sync. Eventually, this monthly estrogen overdose forced him to quit the band, believing he could earn a more reliable income in radio…fool. Dusty’s resume includes flame-throwin’ rock stations in Washington (DC), Houston, Colorado Springs, Toledo, and Richmond (VA). He even played classical music on stations in L.A. and Denver, until he realized there’s practically no such thing as a classical DJ groupie. There are moments when he complains about the business of radio, but he genuinely loves the music. And besides, where else can you find a job where socks are optional? He sold the drums a long time ago to help support his family. Dusty has two sons—somewhere—and dozens of ex-wife stories that would curl your hair. He’s now happily re-married to a knock-out who looks a little like Barbara Eden back in the day. On the list of Dusty’s favorite things, his big ol’ honkin’ HDTV comes in a close second.
Shark is a rock and roll animal. He was the first baby ever born at Phoenix General with a Harley jacket and riding chaps genetically fused to his skin. When he's not living the music, Shark can be found riding the roads less traveled on one of his Harley Davidson motorcycles or behind the wheel of his Dodge Magnum or Ram truck. Shark's son Bobby is also a biker who plays a mean saxophone and is a nearly unstoppable goalie for Shark's hockey team. There's always room for you to hit the road with Shark's Night Ride right here on The Classic Rock Station.
Josh "The Mahlerman" Mahler was raised by irresponsible hippie parents who allowed him to play guitar and listen to rock all day so he could "find himself". You can hear the results of that brilliant experiment on this radio station every Saturday evening. Institutionalized life did little to prepare Josh for the real world; his air shift is the closest thing to "normal" that he has ever known. With a team of model-hot nurses on call 24/7, assisted living is proving to be not as bad as it sounds for Josh Mahler.
