Bio:
Hi! I was born in sunny Miami and spent my formative years down there. I went to college in St. Pete and just loved the Tampa Bay area so much that I decided to stay. Though I have a Bachelor's in History, I've worked in radio for my entire professional life. I do have a soft spot for History still, especially World War 2 history. I'm married to a beautiful, wonderful woman who makes me a better man. Our dog's name is Lola and she's a super cute and cuddly pug.
Last show you binge watched:
Lately, I've been in a state of perpetual binge in watching old episodes of Mystery Science Theater 3000.
Nickname:
Fern, Ferny, Nando, Nandy, I think Davis used to call me F-dog? Usually, I prefer to be called Fernando.
Biggest Treasure in this life:
My faith, my family, and having a peaceful place to put my feet up.
Fun fact:
I love Indiana Jones and actually wanted to be an archeologist when I was younger.
One meal to eat for the rest of your life:
I love really good BBQ ribs. Yummy!
Favorite Bible verse:
Jesus said to him in reply, "Blessed are you, Simon son of Jonah. For flesh and blood has not revealed this to you, but my heavenly Father." -Matthew 16:17
(I know it's an unusual pick but I just love the idea of Jesus himself calling his servant "blessed". It's so powerful to me. I'd love to be called "blessed" by Jesus too one day.)
