Bob Sala’s story is a truly fascinating tale. And here it is. Bob was born in Palo Alto , California many years ago. At the age of three his family moved to Pasadena , of course Bob went along. He lived in the So Cal area for some time, going to school, messing around and other activities. Bob traveled to some of the great beaches of the world, and visited London , New York City and Wyoming . Along the way, Sala was fortunate to study under the revered broadcaster Donald O. Martin, thus receiving a first class education. To make a long story short, Bob found himself employed by Wine Country Radio at the “Krush”. And here we are.
