ABOUT RON

 

I started my radio journey in 1979 as an overnight jock at KSEL in Lubbock, Texas. Over the last 40 years I have worked just about ever format and position that radio can offer. I still love radio after all these years. You could say I was vaccinated with a phonograph needle. (That's how we played music back in the day).

Tune into Ron on your overnight... he will keep the third shifters rocking in Indianapolis.  If you're tuning in from overseas, well, he will start your morning off... he's talented like that.
