Bob Onan...Weekends and Whenever

Saturday nights from 7p-Midnight
Sunday afternoons from 4p-8p
and whenever he feels like it.

BEFORE I ARRIVED AT 102.9 THE HOG: Let's just say, I used to sit at this same chair and talk into this same mic.

IF YOU BROKE INTO MY HOUSE,WHAT WOULD WE FIND?: Me kicking your ASS!

I ENJOY PARTICIPATING IN THE FOLLOWING LEGAL ACTIVITIES: I like waffles.

WHAT'S YOUR THEORY ON MUSIC?: I feel to genuinely appreciate your own style of music; you need to understand and appreciate other types.

After all music is basically sound divided into categories. For me, it’s guitar-orientated hard rock. This statement just explained the diversity of my concert experiences
