Veteran air personality and R|O bud Rich "Brother" Robbin will retire after a whopping 56 years on Friday. He currently handles afternoons on Broadcast Company of the Americas' Classic Hits XHPRS-FM (105.7 The Walrus)/San Diego. Robbin's career spans many decades and many markets including Los Angeles, Phoenix, Detroit, Portland, Nashville, Memphis and Tucson, but he is best-known for his work in San Diego at KGB and KCBQ and more recently at KBZT-FM and KCBQ-FM.
"Fifty-six years is enough, thank you very much," he told laradio.com's Don Barret. "It's been a great run (and great fun) and I'm ready to hang up the ol' earphones and get on with the rest of my life."
He added, "It's been 95% fun and rewarding, but the time has come. I'm 100% ready to step away and get on with the rest of my life. I couldn't be happier if I were twins!"
