Who’s that other guy on the morning show? What in the world does he look like? Due to the amount of calls and messages we have gotten on the US99.5 Hotline, we figured we’d get to know this so-called “Other Guy” a little bit better.
What Up Chicago!! I can’t believe I get to sit here and talk about myself. How cool is that you get to see my picture too? So I’m the other guy, Chris Reese. I help produce the Lisa Dent & Ramblin' Ray Show, I’m a Libra and this here is my story!!
I grew up in the rough Northwest Suburban neighborhood of Arlington Heights, IL! The humble beginnings of boy from the burbs’, picking up chicks on my bike, serenading the ladies on the back of my Dyno Air, and playing little league baseball over at Camelot Park. Like every little guy, I had dreams of making it to the majors, the next Carlton Fisk in the making. Once I got to Buffalo Grove High School and tried out, I realized I was a much better talker than a ball player. I am still proud of my 5 home runs that I hit at our double header whiffle ball game in Scott Compiani’s cul-de-sac. (Record still stands to this day!)
If you had to sum up who I am, I think Ramblin' Ray says it best, “Hardest Working Man in Morning Radio.” That’s a lot to live up to, but if he says so. Just hope he doesn’t find out that Lisa Kosty catches me sleeping in the production studio all the time. Thanks for keeping that on the DL, Kost!
I hold the reigns down as the young bachelor on the show! When I get out of work I’m playing softball, fishing on the lake and watching replays of SportsCenter over and over again. Every once in a while, you can catch me passed out at the North Ave Beach.
By night I love to hit up the Chicago music scene, Joe’s Bar, The Riv, and going to any Hawks, Sox or Bears game I can. If I’m not downtown I’m probably hanging somewhere on the Charlietown Mile (St. Charles Bar Hopping District). Just a reminder, Wednesday is ladies night down by the river!
Alright....Lisa is telling me this sounds more like an E-Harmony Application than a bio.
Any questions or concerns (specifically single ladies in their 20’s), you can reach me at (312) 591-US99!!
