Jon Brooks He’s the caffeine that KOOL 105 listeners in Burlington, Vermont need to start their mornings. Jon launched his broadcasting career in a neighbor’s garage on Long Island. After interning behind the scenes at New York’s WCBS-FM, his talents earned him a seat behind the mic entertaining radio listeners across southeastern Connecticut and Rhode Island. He soon migrated to northern New England and the coveted morning-drive slot. David Mendel He landed his first full-time radio job while still in college. David has worked in the newsroom and on the air at Newsradio powerhouses in Boston and Houston and stations in between. As an admirer of pop music and pop culture, this self-proclaimed radio geek created Broadcastpast and Time Rewind to pay homage to Top 40 radio of the 60s and 70s, recruiting former colleagues and other broadcast talent to enhance the show’s appeal. Marisa Ramirez She’s an award-winning radio journalist whose charming manner and trusted voice has reached millions of homes across the Texas Gulf coast. Marisa was at the mic when Communism crumbled, the Clinton scandal erupted and OJ was acquitted. She regularly lends her warm and compassionate narration to important non-profit projects. Gene Tognacci After years of jocking on radio stations from New England to the Sun Belt, he created, produced and syndicated programs that aired on more than 400 stations. Well before “American Idol,” Gene produced compilation albums as part of a national talent search for some of the top album rock stations in the country. If you’ve heard radio spots for Coca Cola Foods, Compaq/HP, DHL, ExxonMobil, Microsoft, Trump Casino and Valero, odds are you’ll recognize his voice. © 2010 Broadcastpast, LLC, All Rights Reserved.
