Bartel: When my career moved from Philadelphia to Orlando, I had the amazing opportunity to be the PD at Cox owned WPYO (95.3 Party) Orlando’s Party Station. This station was so unique and the staff was incredible. This was at our Cox Top 40 team meeting in Clearwater Beach with Jeremy Rice, Phil Michaels-Trueba, Jill Strada, and the rest of the staff.

Bartel: I was born and raised in the Philly area, so yes, I’m a huge Philly sports fan. I also love to give back and help others radio dreams come true. I’m so happy to see Bex accomplish great things in Philly! Proud of you!! In this pic, I’m at the Eagles Super Bowl Parade in Philadelphia along with two of my best friends, Bex from Q102 in Philly and Bob Burke.

Joey Brooks: While working at Kiss 95.7 I landed a weekend gig at my hometown station Kiss 108 and stayed on for over 10 years. I was lucky to work with Matty, Billy Costa, Dale Dorman Ed McMann, Artie, Skip Kelly, Tyler and David Cory who were my idols growing up. In the later years it was great to be on with Mikey and Frankie V under Dylan Sprague.

Lee Leipsner: Backstage at Beyonce & Jay Z’s “On the Run” tour in Atlanta in 2014. All hail the Queen, truly one of the most creative, artistic, and influential artists that I’ve ever worked with in my career.

Erik Bradley: Harry Styles backstage at We Can Survive at the Hollywood Bowl in 2017. Harry killed it! He is also one of the most gifted, kindest, smartest, and most creative artists who I became close with. I had no doubt he was destined for greatness and world domination.

Jeff Hurley: A career is defined by the relationships you build. Bob and the entire FMQB crew have been partners and friends for decades. You know if you’re backstage at a show in Atlantic City that you’ll run into Bob Burke! Paws up!

Toby Knapp: From the American Music Awards… this one time I interviewed this one guy who hadn’t released his first solo CD yet. One would go on to be an icon, the other would just go on… JT and I from 93-3 FLZ in 2002.

Toby Knapp: I feel like one of these kids is not like the others… This is from the FM97 WLAN days. We were close enough to New York for some quick visits from the small market regional APD/MDs who may have wanted to trek in to hang with some musical icons and whatnot. In this case, a rooftop soiree with Mariah Carey.

Kobe: While in Pittsburgh I took a liking to this new kid discovered by Usher, his name..... Justin Bieber. This pic was before he had any tattoos lol

Chris Michaels: Garth was my first concert as a kid, so this was one of my coolest moments in radio.
