Ramone is living proof that if you do enough stupid radio bits, you'll get on the radio. Originally from the Detroit area, Ramone joined 107.7 RKR in 2006 as The Rocker morning intern. He went on to host nights and mid-days, before accepting a job at Wiser Productions as a talent agent in 2015. But don't worry, he's still lingering around, and you can listen to him preach the gospel of rock n' roll every Saturday from 3 to 8 p.m. right here on The Rocker!

Gypsyhawk – Defenders of the Good Time
If you look up "rock and roll" in the dictionary, it gives you a pretty terrible description; rock music. Well, what the hell is that? A better description would be:
rock 'n' roll: see Gypsyhawk
Gypsyhawk: “Gypsyhawk is four metal dudes playing rock and roll and bringing the party every time they get on stage

That Time I S*** My Pants
My wife is probably going to file for divorce after she reads this, but it's a funny story, so what the hell!
It was winter break 2002 and I was back in the suburbs of Detroit. One December evening I went over to my buddy Jon's house to hang with him and my best pal, Edwin...
Happy Birthday, Joey Ramone!
As many of you know, I'm a huge Ramones fan. If you didn't know, this should be a dead giveaway: my freakin' air name is Ramone! Ramone isn't my real name, do you think my Jewish mother would have given me such a silly name. I got the name because I'm a huge Ramones fan...
First Glimpse of Affleck as Batman
Well nerds, I'm sure you've already seen this, but Zack Snyder posted a photo on the interweb of Ben Affleck in the Batman suit standing in front of the Batmobile.
I have to admit, Ben Affleck looks pretty good here. I keep telling myself that even though Affleck is playing Bruce Wayne and will be wearing the Batman suit, a real stuntman will be performing the action scenes so it won't look awful
Ramone’s Yiddish Word of the Week

Ramone Reviews: Amazing Spider-Man 2
When I was a senior in high school, I was obsessed with the Sam Raimi Spider Man. My friends and I thought it was the greatest thing in the world, and although it's a tad dated now, I still think it's a great comic book movie. When Amazing Spider Man came out a few years ago, I wasn't too keen on the idea of rebooting the series; why not just pick off from where Spidey 3 left off...
