Ever since Ken Paradise was a small boy, he only wanted to do one thing, eat ice cream and play with his toys. But as he grew older, he knew to succeed in life, he would need to go to a fine university and get a high paying job.

Instead, he attended a two year community college and persued a career in broadcasting. Ken has lived and worked in the Finger Lakes his whole life. He began his radio career at the legendary 1240 WGVA in 1984. He's hosted or cohosted morning shows on WNYR 98.5, The WALL Morning Jolt with Rich Stevens, The Morning Mess with Tiffany Collinsworth on Country 101.7 and The Ken and Woody Show weekday mornings on 101.7 The WALL. You can also hear his community college trained voice weekday afternoons on Classic Hits 99.3.

Ken has one child, Adam, two grandchildren, Anthony and Elizabeth, and no pets.
