Years in Radio:

I was a radio intern in late 2009, so over 12 years!

What I love about Working in Radio:

“I love every aspect of it, but I especially enjoy interacting with our listeners and getting to learn about people and events throughout our community while conducting on-air interviews. I love being able to help other people get the word out about the things that are important to them.”

Outside of Work I am Usually:

Going to flea markets and garage sales because it feels a bit like a treasure hunt; you never know what you’ll stumble upon. I love to attend horror movie conventions, as I am a huge fan of that genre. In fact, movies in general are a big part of my life and a night out at the local movie theater is something I enjoy often. I’m an artist who loves to draw and also paint ceramics. I am obsessed with music and I am an avid CD collector. I was a mobile DJ and Karaoke host for many years, and I absolutely love to sing.

Something Most People Don’t Know about Me:

I am an ordained non-denominational clergy and wedding officiant. I’m “Reverend” Denny Case.

My Favorite Musicians/Artists:

My taste in music is very diverse. I listen to artists spanning all different eras and musical genres. Some of my all-time favorites though would have to be Elvis Presley, Roy Orbison, Hank Williams Jr., Alice Cooper, Conway Twitty, KISS, Merle Haggard, Bob Dylan, John Anderson, Jimmy Buffett, Michael Jackson, The Four Seasons, Jerry Lee Lewis, Johnny Rivers and Neil Diamond.

Favorite Quotes:

“No man is a failure, who has friends.” -It’s a Wonderful Life

Short Message to my Listeners:

“Ever since childhood, working in radio was my life’s dream. I was lucky enough to turn that dream into reality and I never take a moment of it for granted. I wouldn’t be able to do this if not for YOU, the listener. You bless my life each and every day with your kind words through phone calls and social media messages, and simply by tuning in whenever you can. I appreciate you more than you could imagine. As I say each time I sign off… “Every day is a gift, so enjoy the present. Believe in yourself, and others will too. This guy on the radio thinks the world of you.”
