Matt Brousseau

Matt Brousseau

According to reports Matt Brousseau was born in Massachusetts. He would later leave. The history is vague, but some folks say he once strangled a bison with his bare hands. Other folks say he lived peacefully, never once using his awesome strength for evil. Now in Chicago, Matt brings his unique ability to live and breathe into the WCRX booth every Thursday 11AM to 3PM

 

Steve Baker

Stephen Baker

Stephen is a small town guy at heart, nerd for most things animated, fan of Mexican and soul food, and a horrible bowler. Stephen’s from a small little town near Lansing, Michigan, but has been happy to call Chicago home for the past 3 years.

One of the worst habits I have is being a habitual furniture drummer. If he's at a table or desk that will make noise, he's probably going to start tapping on it at some point. "I can’t help it, I’m a drummer and that’s just how we approach the world." We make lots of loud, obnoxious noises that can’t be stopped just by unplugging us or yelling. Coincidentally, one of my biggest pet pieves is other furniture drummers, especially to the ones who don’t have any rhythym. I know, it’s like a conundrum wrapped in an enigma smothered in super secret sauce isn’t it?

Listen to Stephen Thursdays 3PM to 7PM

Sam Panayotovich

Doubling as WCRX-FM Sports Director and Deep Dish co-host, Sam Panayotovich keeps a pretty full plate. He began his college career at the University of Illinois, but called an audible after some brushes with radio in Champaign. When not in the office, Sam is either writing mysterious nothings, announcing UIC Flames basketball games or listening to Stevie Ray Vaughan. Until proven otherwise, he is the best pick-up basketball player ever.
