Good luck to them! Didn't think it was possible, but the websites at townsquare have gotten even worse since I was there. I cannot even hardly look at it. :P "Sarah Sullivan" I see has replaced Steve Labenz in middays (which I did for 3 years there - LIVE) before they went VT and now out of market VT - Woof.

I believe he’s working full time mornings at Z-106.3, an all-80’s station in Rapid City, South Dakota. He did spend quite a bit of time at WUPS Houghton Lake.

Craig was the "Afternoon Hustle" on WFGR. He was "Morning Hustle" at WKPK (The Peak) in Northern Michigan. I'll let Craig tell the story about why he was bounced from WFGR if he wishes to tell it. It's a weird one to say the least.

Craig is now in South Dakota as mentioned, after having a stint in Jackson and then at WUPS. They just launched an all 80's station over there under Craig's guidance.

He's also started a youtube/facebook thing called "The Fast Food Guy" where he samples the latest offerings in Mediocre food. It's quite funny.
