  • Wolfman Jack's Chauffer to Rock Royalty: Lenny Bloch's Radio Journey Revealed
    Nov 17 2025

    New York City radio personality Lenny Bloch takes you on a wild and insightful ride through decades of radio history. From his early days as a kid in Queens, idolizing the "Good Guys" at WMCA, to his jaw-dropping start as Wolfman Jack's chauffeur (yes, you read that right), Lenny shares behind-the-scenes stories from a truly one-of-a-kind career.

    You'll hear about Lenny's formative internship at WNBC, rubbing shoulders with Wolfman Jack, Alice Cooper, and even bumping into the not-yet-famous cast of Saturday Night Live in the hallways of NBC. Lenny opens up about his coast-to-coast radio adventures, the characters that shaped him, and the mentors who kept him inspired along the way.

    He walks us through his time at legendary stations like CBS FM, Sirius Satellite Radio, WDHA in New Jersey, and finally, his current home at Radio Woodstock 100.1 WDST. From tales of radio’s heyday through the changing media landscape, Lenny reflects on the magic and challenges of staying true to your roots (and your dreams) in a business that never stops reinventing itself.

    Lenny's candid, colorful journey is a master class in chasing big breaks, rolling with the times, and always keeping your love for radio alive. Enjoy the laughs, the nostalgia, and a treasure trove of insider tales you won’t hear anywhere else.

  • Legendary Radio: WZXL's Steve Raymond Talks Metallica & More
    Nov 3 2025

    Welcome to a brand new season of AIRCHECK! In this episode, hosts Rich DeSisto and Steve Raymond kick things off with a deep dive into Steve’s remarkable radio journey. From his early days spinning vinyl as a kid, to leading 100.7 WZXL for over 30 years, Steve shares the highs and behind-the-scenes moments of South Jersey’s beloved rock station.

    You’ll hear legendary stories about live interviews with icons like Metallica, Kiss, David Lee Roth, Mick Fleetwood, and even a surprise visit from Joe Strummer of The Clash. An encounter that would later be featured in a film.

    Rich and Steve reminisce about the wild days of local radio: inventive promotions, unforgettable mishaps on-air, and the genuine connections made with artists and listeners alike. Steve reveals how being in the right place at the right (or wrong) time led to the kinds of rock and roll moments that only happen in a true live and local radio environment.

    Whether you’re a radio junkie, a music fan, or just love a good story, this episode is a celebration of radio’s golden era and the passionate personalities that made it electric. Buckle up for a mix of nostalgia, laughter, and big-name drops as we launch a new season with a familiar voice at the helm...Steve Raymond!
