Well not quite but did get a mention. This is going to be short but sweet. I have to thank Rob Sheffield from Rolling Stone Magazine. He heard my new syndicated radio show “Old School” and did up a bit of a review. Here’s that review for you to peek at,
"Old School is a fresh nationally syndicated rock and roll radio show spanning out music from the 60s to the 90's. Old School's host Bryan Cox uses a unique strategy of grabbing the attention of his listeners. Cox is like your close friend who tell important truths. Good buddies who get you smiling again. “If as many rock shows played with the honesty and passion of Bryan Cox, this would be a different world indeed.”
- ROLLING STONE, ROB SHEFFIELD
Also the show has now been picked up by over 100 stations and is played across the US and Canada. Let me tell you I couldn’t be happier. Thanks for the read Bryan Cox
As a voice over guy and stand-up I find myself being thrust into an unlikely new role. The Borderline Radio Network has asked me to host a weekly radio show, that’s now been picked up by them for syndication. This is a great honour and believe me a ton of fun. I’ll be running a show each week called “Old School”. This show features music and entertainment tid-bits from the 60’s through to the 80’s. Currently with a few complete shows done and in the can, things are looking up. I’m doing interviews within the 1 hour show. So far I’ve had great chats with, Tommy James of the Shondells, Ken Marco, guitarist from the group Motherlode, Rick Coonce drummer from the Grass Roots, Tom Wilson from Back to the Future, Don LaFontaine the Movie Trailer Guy, Ernie Hudson “Ghostbuster etc.” and have quite a few more big names coming up, but I’m always looking. This is where you can help, if you want. If you know anyone from the music, entertainment, political industries that were popular anywhere from the 60’s through to the 80’s, I’d love to talk with them. Even if you know an agent that handles these folks, I’d love to talk to them. If you want to pass on my email, please do. This is a labour of love for me and free promotion for them. So if you know anyone that might want a friendly fun interview, let me know…and by the way I don’t bite. bigbry@sasktel.net
