Russ and Lisa

The Greenville native worked her internship in Atlanta but missed home, and returned during Spring Break to apply for a job. Her favorite radio station at the time was WQOK, a top 40 monster known as "The Big Q"! She was hired to start the next week and has been radio-active ever since that first day in the early 70's.

After working at WQOK for more than 10 years, she was hired to start the New Rock 101 in Anderson. She managed the station as Office Manager while writing commercials and doing voice work for the station and for a number of radio and TV stations statewide and nationally. After working there for almost a decade, the station was sold, and she decided to get out of the business and stay at home for her husband and kids...She has 2...(not husbands) but, a daughter and son!

The stay at home routine didn't last, Lisa was courted by several stations both in and out of state, but since she became addicted to Talk radio and when she was approached by WFBC-am, now known as WORD-WYRD, she couldn't refuse! She joined WFBC in 1991 and has been there ever since. She calls it the best move she ever made! And so do others since she has been honored for her work in a number of areas.

Lisa has won several awards for writing commercials, for voice work, and for her unlimited passionate work with public service organizations. She is listed in Who's Who, named the first and only Auxiliary member of The South Carolina Veterans Service Corps, honored by the Marine Corps League, and honored as The GOP Woman of the Month a number of times. She has spoken to an array of groups including Lions Clubs, Churches, at various conventions including Billy Graham's The Cove, Christian Leadership Retreat. She served on the Attorney General's Marriage and Family Foundation and is involved with Heritage Community Services on the Abstinence Only Program Board.

Lisa has worked a number of pageants, talent shows, fashion shows, and awards banquets. She has served as emcee for Political panels, forums, and discussion groups. Actively involved in politics, but, more actively involved in her church-Brookwood Church in Simpsonville where she has been a member for a number of years.

She has been a part of our lives from being the one to tell us everything first...from the death of Elvis to the shuttle explosion...from the 9-11 attacks to Katrina. From Columbine to Virginia Tech. Lisa is trusted for her professionalism and appreciated for her community concern. Speaking of which, Lisa spear-headed a convoy of trucks to take in supplies to some of the hardest hit areas of the Gulf Coast following Hurricane Katrina. Yes, riding on an 18 wheeler and delivering everything from diapers to dog food. She arrived after the non-stop road trip just in time to make more than 100 sandwiches to feed those waiting in line, and personally hand out supplies with the help of several local volunteers who went along with her.

Lonzo's road to radio has been a very rocky and winding trek. Born and raised in Columbus, Ohio, his football career came to an end in college after total knee reconstruction. With gridiron dreams ended Lonzo took many jobs in retail, but after his fifth place of employment went out of business he decided to go to recording school.  Graduating in the top 1 percent of his class he set off to find a job in the recording industry or at least a temporary radio gig.
