Breakdowns, Blastbeats, and Bleghs (BB&B) is the heaviest radio show in Fort Worth.

Additionally, listeners are informed of local shows that shred harder than a 5/64 x 15/32” Strip, 16 Sheet Micro Cut Commercial Document Shredder. Don’t miss out on this action, tune in on Tuesdays 10pm-11pm to get your world rocked!

Rock Menagerie

Sunday Nights 7pm – 9pm

Host:  Dale Gleitz

The Rock Menagerie has evolved from its beginnings as an outlet for album tracks to theme-based programming, i.e. each week’s music shares a common bond. Past highlights include the annual Halloween Special and the nights where the songs were about dogs, Hollywood or Mother’s Day.

The music featured on the Rock Menagerie is generally up tempo rock-and-roll songs from 1964 to present, all selected by host Dale Gleitz. The play list includes all genres of rock and roll. On a given Sunday night, you might hear several of these musical classifications: heavy metal, jazz fusion, bubble gum, new wave, stadium rock, novelty songs, comedy bits, country rock, psychedelic, etc.
