  • Young listener

    Always had a love for 1960’s garage rock. In my tweens I was into doo wop and rockabilly, in the army I listened to that and 60’s music. I will continue to be a listener. Even though Phil Grey had a weird obsession with Trump. Is there no other modern politicians that he can have voiced on the show?
