Tony Zazza was born and raised in San Diego, CA & grew up dreaming of being a professional baseball player or a police officer. He left California for Texas on a baseball scholarship. Tony attended Hill College in Hillsboro, TX, and Tarleton State University in Stephenville, TX. While in college, Tony got hired to write for MTV and also took a job at the local radio station in Stephenville.

Tony was the afternoon guy, the sales guy, the promotions director, and wore every other hat in the building until he asked for a 50 cent raise. When told he wasn’t talented enough for the raise he decided to prove his boss wrong.
In ‘98, Tony drove to Dallas and landed weekends at KDMX. Tony worked his way up from weekends to overnights to nights and after one year he was onto afternoons. Tony spent 5 ½ years there before moving to mornings where he was the host of his own show for 4+ years before moving to KVIL.

Tony was named On-Air Personality of the Year by AWRT (American Women in Radio and Television) in 2007 and nominated again in 2014 and also nominated for On-Air Personality of the Year in 2004 by R&R (Radio and Records) and The RMA’s (Radio Music Awards).
