What will you miss the most?
Valentine In The Morning
Valentine is the host of Valentine in the Morning and signs his emails "Colin's Daddy, Leilani's Husband, Red Sox Fan". That pretty much sums up this 40 year-old guy that has worked in radio since he was 15, starting at a little station in Connecticut. The little known facts category about Valentine include: former police officer, USO Entertainer (with over ten overseas tours), comedian, arachnophobia-sufferer, and a man's man (he wrote that last part). Valentine is a winner of the ABC Radio Personality of the Year, RMA Personality of the Year, and Radio and Records Personality of the Year Nominee. Valentine's most important attribute on air is his desire to be open with his listeners and to share his real life, thereby allowing the listener to share theirs as well.

Nate Marino gets paid to be the Executive Producer of Valentine in the Morning, but he offers up his wisecracks and opinions free of charge. He's also a self-professed "know-it-all" and WILL correct your grammar, punctuation and spelling should you email him (go ahead, try it...).

Dylan Riggs mostly works behind the scenes on the show, but sometimes you'll hear him chime in on a microphone. He has the coolest dog on the planet named Dexter. He's addicted to chapstick and has way too many shoes. Sometimes, we catch him looking under the vending machines when he needs change - and he's not ashamed either. And we like it when he breaks into song while forgetting he is in public.

Jimmy is the oldest member of the Valentine in the Morning staff... in fact, no one really knows how old he is or even much about him. We do know that he has a girlfriend, fought in Vietnam and he drove a cab at some point in his life. If you know Jimmy (or what his name was before he apparently entered the Witness Protection Program) please let us know.
