Capn' Chris Hill - "The Nightdesk"
The Nightdesk with The Captain ran overnights on Rock100WDIZ from 1993 to 1994 and was Arbitron rated number 3 overnights summer of
1994. (up from 13th the year prior)
"The Capn' was actually hired to produce the Ron & Ron Show that was being sent in from Tampa’s 95YNF. That work very well for
Chris, since he was a former afternoon and morning announcer at WWKO Rhythm 86AM in Cocoa prior to coming to Rock 100. A little
known DIZ History note - "Capn" was the one who talked Ron Diaz and Ron Bennington into have Denise Moore (Who had posed for the
2 Live Crew LP a few years back) to box Billy The Phone Freak at the "Live Gig" here in Orlando in 1992. An estimated 5,000 people
packed a club on International Drive at 6 in the morning for this "Las Vegas" style event. Expertise in entertainment, programming,
and "trash talking" plus combining his knowledge of Sports, Music and Pop Culture are well known throughout the Southeast. No matter
what format he is involved in... The Capn GETS RESULTS!
And now you can hear him for yourself doing The Nightdesk - (15 years later)
"and to think, When I got to DIZ, I only knew 1 Rock song! - ...and,(pause) she’s cl-i-mbing the sta-i-rway to he-ven!"
DING, DING, DING!
