Cool Bobby B is a radio disc jockey who hosts a doo-wop oldies radio program called Cool Bobby B's Doo Wop Stop. This show is syndicated on local radio stations throughout the United States and can also be heard on the Sirius XM Satellite Radio channel '50s on 5. Though he is currently based out of Cincinnati, the introduction to his program suggests that when he was a youth in Pennsylvania in the 1950s, he ended up on the wanted list after he broke into a radio station and illegally cranked up the transmitter power to a million watts so he can air his doo-wop records to be heard throughout the eastern portion of the United States. 50 thousand watts is maximum power which must be approved first by the Federal Communications Commission (FCC). It is also mentioned that his program emanates from an undisclosed location as he is "still wanted to this day".
Cool Bobby B's favorite group has been noted to be Kenny Vance and the Planotones.
His trademark sunglasses and cowbell are used on the air to this day as well.
