Dave Spencer has been in radio for 37 years--35 of them at WBKR. He has seen it all, in terms of the way that media has changed over the centuries...ahem, decades. Technology is why Dave has played music off of reel-to-reel tape, CDs, and now via digital delivery. He loves watching the music industry change and teaching himself new ways to accomplish that which he needs to accomplish. Now, on to the NEXT 35.
