In the midst of all the negative in the news, Abby will be bringing you some “Happy Headlines”, each weekday morning at 6:45 and 7:45am! Listen to hear some HAPPY news for a change!
It’s a morning show feature here on Mix 96.9…because I feel like we could all use a little more good news in our lives…all bad news has been CANCELLED – at least for the moment.
Presented by The Orthopaedic Center – expert care, when and where you need it! TOC, helping you live a better life!
- A North Carolina woman has collected 600 prom dresses for young women impacted by Hurricane Helene. Reanna hopes the dresses will help teens forget the hardships of
the past six months. - An 81 Year-Old Server who said she could never retire due to financial struggles …got some big help. A customer heard her story and helped raise more than $300,000…so she could retire. Betty expressed gratitude and joked about needing a financial advisor.
- And then we have an eighth-grader who invented a new device that detects seizures. Sarah created a glove called Hand Band and just showed it off at the National STEM Festival in D.C. They named her a National STEM Champion.
- Jelly Roll surprised a deserving fan with a free CAR at a concert last weekend. She used to be homeless and on drugs, and now works to help get other people off the street.

For the love of pizza…this story is Crazy But True.
If you don’t get enough pizza in your life….you’re going to love the Pizza Museum. It was actually created on the question…if you could eat only one food for the rest of your life what would it be…..the answer was Pizza. So this unique museum is an interactive experience including a Pizz’apartment where the bedding, walls and rugs are all about pepperoni. There’s a Pizza Gym, a Pizza Church and a Pizza Box Castle. There are pizza boxes from all over the world, pizza sauce, and Pizza t-shirts. From cheesy, gooey and everything in between. All you ever wanted to know about Pizza is at the pop up Pizza museum. Can
you just smell it right now? It’s…
Crazy But True!
Originally from Rock Falls, Illinois, Abby has been in radio for almost 30 years, and in the Huntsville market her entire career, with the last 16 at Mix 96.9. She started out as the midday host for the first 9 years, and has since transitioned into host of the morning show.
Abby loves spending time with her husband and 2 kids, and her beautiful granddaughter – eating at her favorite Mexican restaurant and most of all shopping for shoes! Her favorite vacation destination is the beach! One thing she couldn’t live without…a good cup of coffee anytime of the day!
Being from Connecticut, Bill is a huge New England Patriot fan! His career in radio began there and has taken him through Massachusetts, Central Pennsylvania…and along the journey, he’s met some pretty cool people – Sting, Van Halen, Aerosmith, TobyMac, Lauren Daigle and more!
Bill and his wife have three kids, two of which attend the University of Alabama Huntsville, and they all definitely take advantage of the fact that his ears “are shot”!
As the Mix 96.9 Morning Show Co-Host and “Traffic Guy”, Bill adds his quick wit and humor to the morning show along with making sure you know everything you need to know in order to get to and from work safely Monday through Friday morning and afternoon.
When not hanging out in the Mix 96.9 studio, he and his wife take advantage of all the great sights and sounds, and, of course, the local food scene in and around the Huntsville area!
