 Name: Jan Spencer
Birthday: July 23
Birthplace: Rockford, Illinois

Favorite WQYK moment: There have been several but the WQYK Sun and Fun Concert with Jason Michael Carroll was a great time because everyone was there and it really showed that we are a great team to work with.
Favorite Pizza Place: Locally, don’t have a clue.
Favorite place to hang out when you are not working: Purple Moon in Dunedin. VERY cool place and the BEST sangria on the planet.
Dirty little secret: Wouldn’t be dirty little secret if I told ya.
First concert: Jefferson Starship with Greg Kihn Band. Went with my mom and it was the first time I ever smelled anything “funny”.
Favorite vacation destination: NEVER changes, Vancouver, BC Canada, although I was just in Ireland and Scotland and that was amazing.
Personal Hero: My mom, and my grandparents since they were married almost 71 years.
Your most overused phrase: ROCK ON!
Best meal that you make: I make a KILLER lasagna! Seriously, it is loaded with mozzarella cheese.
Favorite Tampa Bay restaurant: Several places, but I love the Mandarin Buffet over on HWY 19 in Palm Harbor with the all you can eat sushi! I am also in love with a place in Palm Harbor called Red Fish Blue Fish over on Alt 19, awesome awesome awesome place to have stuffed grouper.
What’s important in life? Being happy and seeing the world!
Biggest Weakness: sushi, Victoria’s Secret, and Bath and Body Works, oh and Payless. (You figure out what you can buy at all three places and yup, that’s it.)
Biggest Fear: Being alone
If I weren’t in radio I’d be: I am doing it now, and that is travelling for my job all over the country and internationally and training/teaching people.
Goal I would like to achieve this year: Be happy and stable in school and work. I am currently in school to get my MBA.
Most annoying habit: Hmmmmm…. Not sure!
Favorite Charity: SPCA of Pinellas County and St Judes. Also, Hospice organization as they were there for both my grandparents when they passed away. Amazing people that work for that organization.
Little known fact about me: I am a Packer and Bear fan. Yes, you can be both. Also, I love the Tampa Bay Lightning and Vancouver Canucks. Hockey and Football rule my world. Lovin’ the hockey more lately…
I can’t imagine…life without laughter and pets.
I want to be a better…friend.
My first school photo….is buried somewhere in a box.

WIBA FM in Madison, Wisconsin, Saturday Night All Request (classic rock station)

Backstage January 11, 2008 in Vancouver, BC Canada, Big and Rich show. My friend Janice is with me standing next to John Rich. I got to stand next to Big Kenny. Even though their semi trailer full of their stage equipment ran off a mountain pass, they still did the show straight on without any extras. It was STILL a great show!
Latest shot of me and my mentor, Steve Summers, at Q98.5 WXXQ in Rockford, Illinois
He is the reason why I got into radio, and I have known him for 25 years!
California Lighthouse on the Island of Aruba. Taken February of 2007 on my business trip there. Yeah, a business trip, terrible, but someone had to go. :)
Jan at the Top of the Rock, Rockefeller Plaza, NYC in December of 2006. Taken while on my business trip to New Jersey and New York City. I was in NYC for 5 hours and decided, "Yup, that's enough."
Eilean Donan Castle, Scotland. All you Highlander, The Movie, fans will know this is where they filmed a lot of the scenes for the movie here. It is the most photographed castle in Scotland. Taken on my trip to Scotland in September of 2006. I sat outside the castle and played "A Kind of Magic" by Queen. Yes, I am a Highlander and Queen fan.
Me sitting in a chair reserved for Bishops of the church in Glasgow, Scotland. Nobody was around, so I snuck a picture!
Cliffs of Moher, Ireland. One of the most spectacular sights I have ever seen. Taken on my trip to Ireland and Scotland in September of 2006.
Jan at the Vancouver Canucks hockey game in Vancouver, Canada. The Canucks played Dallas that night and the Canucks won in sudden death overtime! I still love my Lightning though!!
Jan and longtime friend Babs who lives in Vancouver. We've been friends for 20 years!!
New Year's Day at the Polar Bear Swim in Vancouver, Canada. This is the Australian Football Team in Vancouver, called the Vancouver Cougars. The team took a "dive" in the cold waters in English Bay just off the beaches of Stanley Park! I'd say they were CRAZY!!! It was barely 40 degrees outside!!
