WINK-FM - Richie Rich

Richie Rich

Thanks for checking out my page. Hopefully most of you know by now but for those of you who do not. I am 29 years old born in Brooklyn, New York and raised out on in Farmingdale, Long Island. I grew up always wanting to be on the radio. I went to the Connecticut School Of Broadcasting in Wesbury, Long Island to get the skills I needed to work in radio. I originally got hired to do weekends here but after I met Jeff from the morning show...we looked deep into each others eyes, while the fire crackled in the background, there was a bottle of champagne chilling and then we......I'm sorry I though we were doing Serenade Your Soulmate. Anyway we got along and then he brought me onto the show. I live in Ft ,Myers and spend most of my time on Ft. Myers Beach with my amazing girlfriend Kelly who I have all intentions of marrying sometime soon hopefully.
I get a lot of grief from Jeff on the morning show because I'm italian and from Brooklyn. I don't understand what the big deal is that I used to drive an IROC with T-tops and tinted windows that had a gold and black decal on the front window that said Fugettaboutit and in the cupholder was a bottle of Drakar and TKA's "Maria" was blasting out of my radio at all times.
Anyway I love sunny SW Florida and I love interacting with all of you. Don't be a stranger email me rich@winkfm.com. Check me out on The New Wink In The Morning Show M-F 5:15am-10:00am and Party Song Saturday Night 7pm-midnight.
