  1. Was this the same Rob that was part of the ‘Rob, Val, and Barry’ show that replaced Fred L. at 96.9 Kiss back around 1998-1999? Big voice, the program didnt catch fire here in Vancouver.

  2. Congratulations to Rob. One of the best guys in the business and truly deserving of the roast ( celebration). Edmonton will be lose an icon when he eventually retires.
