    Thanks, Gee. I was wondering what the heck happened to him too. His humor will be missed in the morning.

    […] If you recall, back in 2009, actor Gilles Marini’s wardrobe on Dancing with the Stars was a bit too shapely. If you’re not sure what a moose knuckle is, the Wake-Up Crew on I-94 had a lesson back in 2008. Of course, this lesson was led by the famously funny Gregg Hammer. […]

      Brian, Hammer is back on the radio on KRTR 96.3FM and also online using the TuneIn app. Here’s my analysis of his return.

    pursue ministry?! are you kidding me?! He’s probably punking his fans. this guy was a comic genius who made my mornings with a smile along with my boner, growing up as a teen. I haven’t listened to them in a while, anyone know why they left I-94?

      ant, not in this case. Check out the Sons of Thunder in Hawaii (here’s an example http://www.eventbrite.com/o/sons-of-thunder-hawaii-ministries-3127949442 ). Think when I-94 changed formats awhile back many left, resurfacing elsewhere. Hammer was with Rory on 98.5 then Hammer moved to 96.3.

        is he funny on that station? The thing is I liked the chemistry between him and Rory. what happened in i94 station? I left Hawaii almost a decade ago. I just started listening to the wake up crew recently thanks to iheartradio, and I noticed his absence and the change in radio station.

        ant, I completely understand. I loved the Wake Up Crew back in the day. If you follow my “radio” tag on my blog, you’ll learn some of the history. I-94 changed to an old school jams station then Rory and Hammer reappeared on 98.5, a Hawaiian/Jawaiian music station. Most recently, Gregg joined KRTR 96.3 for Hammertime where he continues to crack jokes. He’s toned it down over the years but he’s still one of the best IMHO. Coolest part is meeting him in person in a parade. 🙂
