Welcome to a brand new season of AIRCHECK! In this episode, hosts Rich DeSisto and Steve Raymond kick things off with a deep dive into Steve’s remarkable radio journey. From his early days spinning vinyl as a kid, to leading 100.7 WZXL for over 30 years, Steve shares the highs and behind-the-scenes moments of South Jersey’s beloved rock station.
You’ll hear legendary stories about live interviews with icons like Metallica, Kiss, David Lee Roth, Mick Fleetwood, and even a surprise visit from Joe Strummer of The Clash. An encounter that would later be featured in a film.
Rich and Steve reminisce about the wild days of local radio: inventive promotions, unforgettable mishaps on-air, and the genuine connections made with artists and listeners alike. Steve reveals how being in the right place at the right (or wrong) time led to the kinds of rock and roll moments that only happen in a true live and local radio environment.
Whether you’re a radio junkie, a music fan, or just love a good story, this episode is a celebration of radio’s golden era and the passionate personalities that made it electric. Buckle up for a mix of nostalgia, laughter, and big-name drops as we launch a new season with a familiar voice at the helm...Steve Raymond!
