My name is Nate Zerambo. I like to spell my name “N8” – it’s just my signature. I’ll be 19 in February and I am a Freshman Broadcasting Major.
This is my first year here at WPPJ and I hosted a show last semester in the fall.My show is called the N8 L8 Show and I host it twice a week: 8-10 p.m. on THURSDAYS and 10-midnight on SATURDAYS. I play anything from the power of Led Zeppelin’s rock to the smooth sound B.B. King’s blues to the genius works of Bach’s symphony and even the awesome beats of Immortal Technique. Whatever genre music you listen to, you’ll be sure to hear a song you like. I’ll play ANY requests, so feel free to call or text in during my show. My show isn’t a series of chit chat. There’s definitely more music and less talk. I might add a comment about whatever is on my mind at the moment in between songs, which could be anything. I tend to be rando You know when you hear a song on the radio that you REALLY like? I mean you REALLY like it but you don’t know the name of it? Then the DJ doesn’t announce the name until a few songs later (or maybe even only gives the artist’s name -uggh)? Well my fellow listeners, I like to announce the name and artist of a song before AND after each song is played to save you from that stress. You’ll always know what I’m playing!
I also ask something called the “Random Question of the Day”, which can be anything from complete nonsense to a philosophical debate just for fun really.
I am part of CSB (College Students in Broadcasting), which is a cool little group where we get to tour radio and television stations. In my free time, I play guitar, video games, and I love to read and write.
I’m hoping to be a radio DJ during the week at preferably a rock station (but any station would be awesome J). I also want to work as a DJ in my own business, playing for weddings, birthday parties, etc.
I enjoy anything I can get for free, especially food. I waste a lot of time on the Internet. I sleep in on the weekends. I am neither a chocolate or vanilla person. I wear pajama pants even when I’m not sleeping. They’re freaking comfy! I love video games; Final Fantasy VII, Monster Hunter Freedom Unite, and Resident Evil 4 are my top favorite video games of all time. My favorite food is buffalo chicken pizza as long as it doesn’t have that gross blue cheese AKA mold. I love music…anything from hardcore metal to smooth jazz. I love peanut butter, but I’m really not a fan of peanuts. I collect movie ticket stubs even though I don’t go that often. I love animals, especially dogs and monkeys. I cannot go a day without playing guitar. I love Jesus, but hate pennies. I like the smell of freshly baked cookies and I like eating them a lot more especially with a nice cold glass of milk. Strawberry is my favorite milk, but not my favorite fruit. That would be banana. My favorite word is poop. It’s one of the most random words in the English dictionary. It sounds funny. I’m crazy and maybe semi-immature. I can be shy at times, especially around people I don’t really know. If I had a super power, I would want to be like an Animorph but instead change into Inanimate Objects. I was upset when Goodnoe’s closed. Likewise, I was upset when I found out Michael Jackson died. I give people a lot of nicknames, namely my family. I hate math. I’ve been to a few concerts including Weird Al, Robert Plant, and The Machine (Pink Floyd cover band). I play my acoustic guitar more than my electric. I used to have a pet rock named Bubba. I have a dog named Susie (she’s big). My favorite soda is Orange Cream. I’m high off life (see definition of “Nathaniel” on Urban Dictionary). I have 2 sisters that are twins. My favorite salty snack is Snyder’s Jalapeno Pretzels. My favorite candy is Reese’s Banana Cream (Elvis) BIG Cup. I used to “play” on track & cross country teams, but now I sometimes just run on my own. Oh yea and ummm…I like PIE!
