Hi, I’m Slater, and if I didn’t love my job I would not get up at 4:30 every morning (believe me)! I try my hardest to keep you informed and entertained from 6-10 Monday through Friday on Live 95.9! Fun facts: I regularly check my pulse. I love buying new shoes. I host trivia nights for Bob Heck Entertainment. I sleep with the fan on medium. I love The Beatles. I’m built like a coat rack. I have gray hair and a red beard. My favorite movie is “The Blues Brothers.” I love sushi. I love steak. I’m really good at fastpitch wiffle ball.
