Everything You've Always Wanted to Know... about Skip Kelly




Born and Raised:   Exeter, NH

Professional: I keep myself busy with (not one, but....) 2 jobs !!   I have this fun little radio gig that I do………and I have also been a Mobile DJ/Host/Emcee (specializing in weddings and adult parties like birthdays, anniversaries and corporate events) for over 3 decades !  Yes, I OBVIOSULY started as a young child....

Personal: Married to my best friend Stacie since 2001, 4 cool kids - Tyler (age 18), Zak (age 10) and my 'princess', Alexa (6) and.....{drum roll, please}, we were just blessed with a new baby boy on November 29, 2011 !  We named him Landen James.  Great little guy and a wonderful addition to the family !

Hobbies: Working out and trying to keep that boyish figure.  It gets harder with each passing year, however.   (Were'nt these same weights a bit lighter 20 years ago?)  Photography, playing kids games with the kids, holding hands with my wife, martial arts.

Favorite Music Artists: Brad Paisley, Toby Keith, Rascal Flatts, Chicago, Elton John, Billy Joel

Favorite Sports Teams: Being from New England I am a devoted Patriots and Red Sox fan (the 2000's was a good decade for me)  And working in South Florida radio, I also grew to like the Miami Dolphins and the Florida Marlins.


Favorite TV Shows: I don't watch a LOT of TV, but when I do...I have to admit it....I am a reality show junkie.  Survivor, American Idol, Amazing Race, America's Got Talent, etc will keep my attention.  I also like Professional Wrestling and Desperate Housewives.  Eclectic, you say???!!!

Favorite Getaways:  New England.  Returning to your "roots" is always cleansing and keeps you grounded.  I also like the west coast of Florida (my wife's family is there - yes, I actually like my Mother-in-Law...) and my living room.  I escape to these places as often as I can.

Professional Influences:  When growing up, I used to listen to a hometown radio station with an afternoon guy whose name was (and still is) "Duncan Dewar".  I thought he sounded so cool and I wanted to do what he was doing for a living.  I am STILL in touch with Duncan to this day.

Philosophy:   Character is doing the right thing even when nobody is looking.
