I've been behind the mic for a long time, starting my radio journey with a bang as I co-hosted a comedy and political talk show on Raz Radio and Saltytalk Radio. Those early days were all about pushing boundaries, sparking debates, and sharing laughs — a perfect mix of humor and heated discussions that kept listeners on the edge of their seats. But as much as I loved the thrill of talk radio, I knew my passion for music, particularly the raw power of metal, was calling me in a different direction. That led me to Total Metal Radio, where I began DJing and playing the music that had always moved me. It was an incredible experience, but after a while, I felt a pull to create something of my own — something that truly embodied the spirit of the metal community. So, I took a leap and launched That Metal Station. With an amazing lineup of DJs, we built a station that quickly became a sanctuary for metal lovers everywhere. From deep cuts of classic metal to the latest underground anthems, we created a space where the music could speak for itself and the community could thrive. Running the station was an unforgettable adventure, filled with countless late nights, live shows, and collaborations that made it feel like a second home. But, like all great journeys, there came a time when it all became too much to handle. It was time to pass the torch. With my blessing, I handed the reins over to a couple of friends who shared the passion and drive to keep the station alive and thriving, and they've been managing it ever since. For about 5 or 6 years, I stepped away from radio altogether. I thought I was done; the desire just wasn’t there anymore. But life has a way of pulling you back. A conversation with Metal Mike sparked something within me — an idea, a vision. There was one show I would consider doing, but only with the right people. One of those key people was Jeff. We talked, reminisced, and realized there was still some unfinished business on the airwaves. So, here I am at Cranium Radio, ready to pick up where I left off and continue this journey. It's been a wild ride, but being back feels right. Not to mention, it's given me a chance to reconnect with some of the family I lost along the way. This is where my path has taken me, and I'm excited to be back, spinning the tracks that matter and connecting with listeners who live and breathe the music just like I do.

My music journey began before my oldest memory. My entire life I have heard anecdotes and stories where the motif is pretty obvious, always revolving around music, in one way or another. My mother showed me how to operate the turntable at the age of 2, because I was obsessed with the records. I had my own stereo and was recording mixtapes from the radio at the age of 3 (educated guess based on the song selection of a cassette tape that survived several moves and was found about a decade later). At my preschool, I used to sneak away from class into the music room, only to be discovered when I started playing the piano, disrupting whatever quiet activity they were trying to do. In my late teens, I randomly ran into my kindergarten teacher, who not only recognized me, but also told me that whenever there was a guest in our class, I would be the first to volunteer, not to offer welcoming words, but to improvise a song about the importance of their visit. I have no recollection of any of these events! I guess it shouldn’t come as a huge surprise when later I was constantly drawn to musical activities, from choir to flute ensemble, to an extensive music collection, to poorly self-taught guitar, to my first song, to my first band. If I had to pick a spirit animal that embodies my musical taste, it would be a chameleon. Ever changing, finding beauty in its surroundings. Ever evolving. I can be caught listening to Julie London as often as I can be caught listening to Fito Páez and as often as I can be listening to Halestorm. I do have to admit that I tend to gravitate towards metal, it’s like comfort food, it feels like home. A few years ago, I joined a folk metal band, and discovered primal elements that fit too well the musical aesthetic of my metal home. I invite you to share this ever evolving musical journey with me

Hello everyone, this is DJ Joe, and I have a huge passion for music, especially rock and metal. I was raised in a very musical household, and both of my parents love classic rock from the 70s and 80s. When I was a teenager, I started to expand my taste into heavier music while still having a great love for the classic rock that I was raised on. I love to talk about music with my friends, Blackspinner’s Circle, and the Free Form Rock Podcast. I hope that you all enjoy jammin' and host and guest on several music podcasts including Heavy Water 77, The BS Sessions at the garage with me!

My name is Jerry Supe and I’m Coming to you from Cookeville, Tennessee—right between Nashville and Knoxville proudly hosting the 3 Shots Down Experience. As a kid, I was blown away by that iconic image of Jimmy Page raising the bow, and I thought to myself, This is what I want to do. I picked up a guitar and was instantly hooked. Ever since then, music has lived in my soul. It's become a part of me—who I was, who I am, and who I will be. I love many genres: metal, classic rock, pop, blues—and believe it or not—Opera and Classical. It is my absolute honor to share the music that has shaped my life with all of you.

I got my start in radio during the time of the Replacement Refs in the NFL. Local rock station 94Rock WOTT, in Watertown, NY, was looking for Replacement DJs. I answered the call, and a seed was planted. Later, Scott Green recruited me to TMS, where I honed my craft and especially mic skills, from September 2016 -November 2023. I’m honored and proud to be a part of CraniumRadio.com

Howdy all, my name is DJ Spur, I have been listening to country music since my first cassette and cd as a kid. Growing up I have experienced a wide range of genres from classic rock/metal from my brothers, easy listening and jazz from my parents, to rap/hip hop in high school, but country music has always held a special place in my heart/soul. As far as my physical experience with music, I ran the mixer and sound system for the church I went to and performed karaoke songs at local bars, but this is the first opportunity to experience life from behind the microphone. I am happy to bring you the best in outlaw, classic, bluegrass, new, and everything the country genre has to offer. Come join me in the Branding Iron! Cowboy Up!

My love for all things Hard Rock/Heavy Metal began when my older brother David (AKA Scapegoat to long-time listeners of The Metal Mike Show) brought home a copy of KISS Alive in early 1976 when I was only 5 years old. Upon gazing at the cover, I was at first somewhat apprehensive about the four individuals with kabuki make up and outlandish costumes. Dave, knowing of my love for comic book superheroes presented it as these four individuals, were in fact, superheroes that played music. He then removed the record from the sleeve and placed it on our parents turntable and dropped the needle, from the minute I heard the roar of the crowd with the announcer proclaiming “You wanted the best and you got it, the hottest band in the land) KISS!!!!!!”, (They hadn’t quite conquered the world yet), with the accompanying guitar riff and subsequent explosion, My world was never the same. After that, my brothers and I were introduced to Black Sabbath courtesy of a family friend and there was no turning back. My love for all things Hard Rock/Heavy Metal has never wavered. I have been an online radio DJ since May of 2015 and I am still going strong to this day! Becoming an online radio DJ/Personality and Podcaster has been the greatest decision I have ever made. While I truly do love all types of music, Hard Rock & Heavy Metal has been and always will be my first love! To put it succinctly I live Metal, love Metal and will remain Metal until my dying breath. You can listen to the Metal Mike Show with DJ Metal Mike and my Co-Host Billdo For Realdo AKA Bill Roseberry every Friday night right here at Cranium Radio from 8 PM to 1 AM EST where we play all types of Hard Rock/Heavy Metal along with all of its myriad subgenres as well as artists/bands that were influential to the creation and evolution of Hard Rock/Heavy Metal. There is truly something for every type of fan of Hard Rock/Heavy Metal on The Metal Mike Show. When I'm not busy being DJ Metal Mike, I work as an Infection Preventionist Nurse at a long-term healthcare facility, I'm also a huge movie buff, an avid reader of all things Sc-Fi, Fantasy, and Horror, as well as comic books, a huge old-School muscle car enthusiast, particularly Mopars as well as a casual gamer.

I’ve always been surrounded by music. One of my earliest memories was looking and listening to my folks Beatles cassettes. Seeing KISS one Saturday on television during the reunion era was, as corny as it sounds, nothing short of life changing. I was immediately hooked and had finally found “my band.” Sure I had hand-me down cassettes from my folks and older brother, but KISS was the first band I found for myself. From there on it was a like treasure hunt for their contemporaries and getting into AC/DC, Black Sabbath, Alice Cooper and the list goes on. Growing up in “Heavy Metal Capital Of The World” San Antonio, TX made finding things like this easy. Mario Munoz hosted the Classic Metal Show on KZEP 104.5 which ran from Sundays 9 PM to 1 AM was a crash course in all this. Late night VH-1 countdowns and videos were another huge influence and a bridge between the bands I loved and the bands I would soon fall for. Frank Zappa, MC5, Husker Du, Grateful Dead were all discovered then. After moving to South Carolina, in college I work at a record store that was the absolute best place to get educated in all genres of music. John Coltrane, Ernest Tubb, 13th Floor Elevators, Return To Forever, on and on, all this amazing stuff I’d probably never gravitate towards became the soundtrack of my life. And it hasn’t slowed down. I’m still buying the magazines, reading the band bios, always looking for something new to me, and still buying physical media. Quick notes: My favorite bands are Grateful Dead, Frank Zappa, Rolling Stones, Blue Oyster Cult, Pink Floyd, Miles Davis… Top Five Favorite Albums: 1. MC5 - Kick Out The Jams 2. Led Zeppelin- II 3. Beatles - Revolver 4. Allman Brothers Band - At Fillmore East 5. 13th Floor Elevators - Bull Of The Woods

Hello, I'm DJ Gemini. Nice to meet you! A little about me: I'm from Central Pennsylvania. Whether it was always stealing my parents' vinyl as a kid and/or making some kind of vinyl/cassette trade in school (later CDs). Like most DJs, music has been a part of my life literally since birth. There was always music playing in the house and car. I also hung out at the local radio station when I could, just watching eagerly to do what they did. I'm a music lover in general and depending on the mood my taste can go from the mellowest oldie to the heaviest of heavy but I am always 100% open-minded to any genre. I also like to think I have a fun sense of humor. LOL! By the way, My show is called Totally Tubular and you can listen to me on Mondays 4 pm to 7 pm (EST) where I will bring you New Wave, punk, ska, alternative, and did I mention lots of 80's? We'll dance, laugh & reminisce through the power of music! Anything else you'd like to know or ask, hit me up in the chatroom during my show! I am seriously grateful for this opportunity and to be here!
