Rachel Rhodes
Host

After discovering that being raised on a strict diet of musicals and country western music is liable to make a girl aspire to waitressing, Rachel moved to Los Angeles to revive in everyone she encountered: what was once known as the human soul. After brief bouts with law classes and obtaining her Emergency Medical Technician certificates, Rachel discovered philosophy, which she now eats for breakfast. When she was 6 years old, Rachel was hit by a Cadillac while skipping across a San Francisco street in her Easter dress. If you ever see her cartwheeling her way across an intersection while you're stuck at a red light, feel free to show her a taste of your own creativity by saying something other than "Hey Baby".

Blaine Rucker
Announcer

Blaine digs in record crates for both LPs and change. When he's not OPEN-APPLE+TABBING during his day job, he's skating down Beverly Boulevard, or "just taking a walk to Chevron". An LA native, Blaine's introduction to media started at an early age, playing "Little League Pitcher" in a very, very short segment for the HBO comedy special "Martin Mull Live from North Ridgeville, Ohio." If you ever see graffiti in your neighborhood that reads SPEX or RUCKUS, he didn't do it.
