This is what an Oldies station should sound like! After nine months of sleeping late, I’m well rested and looking forward to meeting the listeners, playing tons of the greatest music ever produced, and once again having FUN on the radio.”
Freddie Brooks, afternoons on TRUE OLDIES 106.7 says, “I am absolutely thrilled to be on the air at TRUE OLDIES playing the great music I grew up with! Now to have Spiff joining me for a few hours each day, it’s going to be that much more fun!”
