MONDAY JUNE 26, 2023 – I just finished my final weekend as a regular show host on 105.5 The Colorado Sound, as we get set to move off the Front Range after 45 years. The Colorado Playlist will continue in its usual times – 6AM on Saturday and 6PM on Sunday. Claire and I are looking to our move to the western slope in the coming weeks.
HOW THE CP GOT ITS NAME: January 2016, the principles at KJAC (Greeley) approached me about selling the name of my show, The Colorado Sound. While I was wracking my brain for a new name, my adopted step-daughter said, “Daddy, we call those playlists now.” ‘Nuff said kid. The Colorado Playlist was born in January 2016. I started working for the Colorado Sound in February 2016. It’s been a great seven and a half years.
