Middays from 10am-3pm

Jim Ryan is a New England native and has been working in NH and MA radio since the late 1990’s. His interests include music, playing, collecting and building guitars, and when he’s not “gracing” the local airwaves Jim spends his spare time working out at the gym, making updates to his home and hanging with his two cats, Cloo and Nico.   

Jim enjoys the four seasons, taking advantage of all New England has to offer with skiing in the winter, a pastime he’s enjoyed since he was a young teen, and in the summer, he loves cookouts, swimming and sipping some cocktails around the firepit with friends and family.  

Jim’s musical tastes span from early 50s rock and roll to contemporary artists, and everything in between. He grew up on the Beatles (thanks to his older sister), early Van Halen and later in fell in love with the music of Paramore, The Foo Fighters, and the list goes on.
