Winner of multiple Personality of the Year and Morning Show of the Year awards, Chris Wright spent more than three decades entertaining audiences on the airwaves before creating the fictional Brad and Bone Morning Show. Now the only limits to the stunts he can pull off and the celebrities he can interview are his own imagination. And he doesn’t have to wake up at 4:00 AM.
Chris grew up in East Alabama where he could just barely receive the radio signals coming across the state line from Atlanta or from Birmingham to the west. Mark and Brian (later seen on NBC’s The Adventures of Mark and Brian) made their debut in Birmingham about the time Chris got his drivers license and he would record their show while at school so he could listen back later and play the funniest bits for his friends. It was because of them (and because he had zero musical talent and knew he would never be a rock star) that Chris decided to become a radio personality.
His “big break” came in 1993 when the morning host on his station left for a rival station and Chris got promoted from evenings to mornings. A few months later the “Storm of the Century” covered the area in a deep snow and shut down all the local stations, except WVOK-FM K98 where Chris had spent the night. The following three day marathon broadcast built a reputation and laid the foundation for a successful career.
Today Chris spends his days with books, writing his own and also narrating other people’s audiobooks. He lives on the Alabama Gulf Coast with his wife, two boys, and their four-legged daughter Gracie.
