I would be remiss if I didn’t acknowledge my mentor, Jim Merkel, here as well. When I’m not spinning vinyl on-air, I’m often cruising around in my ’66 Corvair, taking something apart and tinkering with it (with the hope that it’ll go back together right), camping, hanging out with my far-out girlfriend Leah, or attending class at Grove City College!


Firstly, I would like to thank everyone at the most amazing. Each station offers unique programming, and takes pride in providing Butler and surrounding counties the best in local news, sports, and music. I began interning during my freshman year of college, and, memorial day weekend of 2021, the Stax O’ Wax Show came to the airwaves! As you may well know I decided to leave Radio City after nearly 20 years at the radio station. The Butler Radio Network owns and operates three radio stations in the heart of Butler, PAWISR 680-AM, WBUT 1050-AM, and The Rock Station 97.7-FM. That summer, I began producing the “Today In Music History” segments that are heard on WISR twice daily. My involvement here at the Butler Radio Network began as a board-op my junior year of high school. I was never without my transistor radio through middle school and into high school (and still carry one all over campus at college today!) WISR, in many ways, became the soundtrack of my life.

The first song I heard on WISR was Jim Croce’s “You Don’t Mess Around With Jim.” I was hooked, listening constantly from that point on. 252 Pillow St, Butler, Pa, 16001, Brazil. The station also broadcast the Metropolitan Opera and joined National Public Radio in.

came out of retirement in late August to buy the stations. The building had been home to the popular AM radio station since 1955. I discovered WISR when I was in 6 th grade on my transistor radio. Barnabas Broadcasting is reportedly paying 2.55 million for the stations and two FM translators: the Butler, PA-licensed W298CW at 107.5 FM which simulcasts WISR and the Butler, PA-licensed W247DF at 97.3 FM which simulcasts WBUT. Twenty years later, I’m a full-blown record collector with thousands of 45s and albums, spinning them weekly for you here on WISR!Īlongside record collecting, radio was one of my earliest passions, beginning with me recording cassettes, pretending I had a show on-air when I was just a couple years old.

Hi I’m Michael Crowley, host of the Stax O’ Wax Show, the Stage At Six, and the Sunday Album Spotlight Series here on WISR! My groovy musical journey began when I was just a couple years old with a Fisher Price children’s record player and a couple stacks of Peter Pan 45s.
