I'm Steve, I'm living proof that sometimes you get one more chance. Every single day I have ever spent in a radio station was a day I spent doing what I love. Even the very worst day. I have a beautiful wife who is my rock, and has been domesticating me for nearly a decade now, two awesome step children who have taught me much about life, and two puppy dogs who banish bad days as soon as I walk through the door. As long as I remember not to try and put a pizza in my mouth that is bigger than my head, I usually do ok. Life is beautiful!
