Hello on you! You may know me as Don Tandler The Record Handler, because I can tell you what the #1 song was on the day you were born! I'm practically a lifer at New Jersey 101.5, here 21 of the last 26 years! I did two tours of duty as Jim Gearhart's board-op, and was the host of the old "Saturday Night Jersey Oldies Show" and "Saturday Night Jersey 70s Show." Currently, I'm Dracula, hosting the weekend overnight shows, midnight to 6 a.m. I also help produce Steve Trevelise's weeknight talk show. I'm a lifetime Mets and Jets fan (I'm a masochist), have a teenage son, Josh, who I adore. I'm a Beatles freak (who isn't), ethnic food lover (too much), mystery addict (I've seen every "Perry Mason"). Now, tell me about YOU......
