Need to know anything about’80s pop music or one more person to complete your music trivia team? Chris Adams is your guy. While in college in Nashville, Tennessee, Chris made an air-check tape that ended up in the hands of a local radio station program director, Within weeks Chris began his radio career at Star 106 FM (Adult Contemporary) and began a journey to research and collect every song to appear on the Billboard HOT 100 chart from January 1980 through December 1989. In the ‘90s, Chris relocated north with his wife and began “living on the air in Cincinnati” at WGRR 103.5 (Classic ‘70s and ‘80s), Warm 98.5 (Adult Hits) and most recently, Star 93.3 (Christian Pop).
