BUSINESS PROFILE
DiPonti CoMMUnications
By JIM WEICHERDING What can I write about DiPonti Communications that everyone doesn’t know about their business? Everyone knows that ‘Crazy’ Chris DiPaola and his partner, Steve Conti, are two of the nicest and most sincere people that you would ever want to meet in person. I’m fortunate enough to actually work with them in their radio studios and participate with their live radio show broadcasts every week. They own three different radio stations but my focus for this article is about their classic rock radio station, I-105.5 radio station located in Coventry, Rhode Island and WBLQ radio station located in Westerly, Rhode Island because those are the two radio stations I currently work with. You may have even heard the radio stations promos that include Motorhead Magazine and listened to The Time Machine Oldies Radio Show where I mention Motorhead Magazine during the segments for all of our listeners, streamers and podcasters tuning in to hear great music and Crazy Chris do his on-air banter. He is an amazing person full of energy and truly cares about the people around him that he treats just like family once you are part of his inner circle. Chris is family man and dedicated to his wonderful wife and children. He loves his job and takes it on like it’s something special and he is right - it is special. Crazy Chris and Steve are all about their listeners and those who support their radio stations and live radio show broadcasts. It is a pleasure to be their friend. When it comes to business, you would be hard-pressed to find two people that work as hard as they do every day. Crazy Chris is one of the hardest workers I have ever met. Never complains and just gets the job done for all of his listeners, streamers and podcasters with a lot of ambition and drive. Tune in to Kent County’s Classic Rock Radio Station and Saturday’s The Time Machine for a day of great oldies. The Wolfman Jack Show is growing in popularity as well with everyone tuning in to hear the show. It’s a good thing that we have people like Crazy Chris and Steve. Without them our world would be missing something very special indeed.
