Dave Reynolds

Morning Show Host

Who Am I?: Dave Reynolds, Morning Show Host on 99.7 “The River”
Some People Call me: “Buzz”
Personal Theme Song: No Rain, Blind Melon
Best Album in my Collection: My signed copy of B.B. King’s “Live at the Regal”
Favorite Song to Sing Outloud: Anything that's on 99.7 The River. Even if I don't know the words. That makes it better, especially in a mall when the Musak's playing...then it's like a solo...
Favorite Song to Sing ALONE: Spiderman theme song, it makes chores more interesting. Lots of broken dishes, but still, interesting.
Favorite Night Of The Week: Friday nights...you're as close to the beginning of the weekend as possible without it actually technically being the weekend yet.
Celebrity Crush: Angelina Jolie. Don't worry Brad, I understand.
Favorite Sports Jersey: Anything that isn't Toronto Maple Leafs. Canucks BABY!!!...all the way!!!!
Pizza - Cold or Hot? Do I even have to ANSWER this?!!? CAVEMEN invented fire, I think we can use it now.
If you could invite anyone to dinner (dead or alive) who would it be? Albert Einstein, I’d really like to get a a handle on this “Relativity” thing or Jon Stewart, the amount of combined sarcasm would cause the room to explode.
What is your most annoying habit? Chewing my gum loud enough to shatter particle board. Hey, if it was food, I'd swallow it, it's a workout for the jaw, just give'er!
If I won a Million Dollars... I'd go the Homer Simpson route and plate myself in 24K Gold. Then, with the leftover 99.7,000 dollars, I'd start a boy band, just so I could make fun of them. By the way... how many puppies does a Million Dollars buy?
If I Won a Grammy... I would thank... whoever taught me how to sing well enough to win a Grammy, 'cause there's no chance that'd happen right now. Unless you're down with yodeling. I'm a lock there.
If I wasn't in Radio, I'd be... the eighth fastest human alive. Here's the deal, I'd make the 100 meter finals, and when the gun went off, I'd walk down the track yelling "I'm the world's 8th fastest person!" People would remember that.
Why I LOVE 99.7 The River: Because they actually gave me a job letting me talk about things. Getting paid to talk is like getting free cake for eating. Or free cake for breathing. I'm holding out for free cake here.

The Power To Gather Roses In Winter

Winter, on Vancouver Island where I live, is pretty tame - compared to the harsh, difficult reality experienced by most north of the 40th parallel. This winter night, however,... more
