JOYCE JEFFERSON (10a-3p): Joyce landed her first radio job while working at a pizza
parlor. She and her twin teenage daughters have three dogs, three cats, two leopard
geckos, a chinchilla and a fish. Joyce loves studying clouds and & “weather watching”;  She
also sings and pulls out her guitar to entertain friends now and then. By the way, she still
loves pizza.

JOHN SUMMERS (3p-8p): John’s 30+ year radio career has taken him all across the country.
His love of music from the player’s perspective has done the same: Lots of traveling as the
guitarist in his own rock band! He’s also worked as a session musician for other great artists.
When John’s not rockin’ on stage or entertaining us on the radio, he’s hitting the hills off-road on
his mountain bike or motorcycle, or he’s buried in his music room going through his huge
collection of LPs. He also loves a great novel and never misses the latest block-buster movie.

KEITH STEPHENS (8p-1a): Keith grew up in New England, but escaped the cold to
graduate from Arizona State where he started his radio career. When he’s not on the
radio, he’s a true soccer dad with two daughters (one a teenager so wish him luck). Keith
loves classic TV, especially Seinfeld and MASH. He likes to work out, read on his Kindle,
and watch the latest trends on social media. First album he ever bought? “Band On The
Run” by Paul McCartney and Wings. He still has it and is excited because vinyl is cool again..

CHRIS KELLOGG (1a-6a): Chris has been on the radio for over 40 years and still loves
hearing his favorite songs from his youth and the early years of his career. Chris and his
wife Lisa met in high school and have been married 35+ years (or as she says, “a really,
really, long time”). They have four children and five grandchildren and two dogs, Molly
and Flounder. Their favorite hobbies include reading (novels for Lisa, non-fiction for Chris),
riding bikes, and traveling to spend time with the kids.
