Scott Stine background:

Born Cass City, Michigan June 13, 1963

I always knew I’d be in radio. At age 8, I remember picking up a Wolfman Jack countdown show out of Canada. After that I was hooked! Listened to WHNN, WTAC, CKLW, WKNX and WTRX growing up.

Odd jobs before radio: garbage man (my Dad owned a sanitation route) and I pulled chickens one summer (if you own chickens you know how much fun this job was!) Thankfully, I got into radio!

I enrolled in the Specs Howard School of Broadcast Arts in Southfield, MI. in Nov. 1981.

First radio gig: part-time weekend pee-on from 1979-81 at WKYO/WIDL in the huge metropolis of Caro. Worked in the horrible state of Ohio for about a year. Came back to Michigan and worked in Ionia for a few years.  In August 1985 was hired at WHNN (Sunny 96 at the time!)   Been saying the WHNN call letters ever since.    

Stats:

Hometown: Cass City, Mi. “Astronaut Brewster Shaw is also from Cass City. He got a salute on a billboard heading into town. What did I get? A friendly wave goodbye as I left town!” Actually, I still have family there and it was a great small town to grow up in.  Love my Red Hawks!

Birthday: June 13

Education: Graduated from Cass City High School. Class of 1981. Go Red Hawks!

Marital/family status: Married to the best darn woman ever….her name is Karen. We have 2 incredible girls….Shelby and Haley. Truly the joys of my life!

Favorite artists:  Love anything 80’s…Prince, Bon Jovi, Rick Springfield and The Go-Go’s.  90’s?  I lean towards Matchbox 20. Today artists have to include Bruno Mars, Kelly Clarkson and Ed Sheeran.

Hobbies:  Music….love everything!  Would love to learn to really play guitar one of these years.  Plus, just hanging out with my family. Isn’t that what it’s all about?

Favorite Pro teams: The Tigers and Wings! 

Favorite foods: The salad bar at Ruby Tuesday’s!

Favorite TV Shows: Deadliest Catch is still my favorite!  And “Criminal Minds” on CBS is my favorite police drama.
