The
pride of Roseville,
Michigan, Screamin Scott
Randall was born in Mt.
Clemens and reared in
Warren. His first radio
exposure was his high
school job at Hardee’s,
often saying “pull
around to the next
window.” Next up was
International Roller
Rink (now the Great
Skate) and The Rink in
Utica, where he did
stints as the rinks’
DJ. While this was
going on, he was
attending classes at
Cousino High School in
Warren. Cousino High is
the home of the school
district’s radio
station, WPHS. Scott
soon found himself
honing his skills on
WPHS while serving the
community by playing
Rush and Black Sabbath.
After high school he
immediately enrolled in
the Specs Howard School
of Broadcast Arts in
Southfield. The fine
folks at Specs helped to
clean Scott up on the
air, and connected him
with the next part of
his trip.
Ohio was up next. He
spent five years in the
Buckeye State, and then
moved on to Indiana,
where he also spent five
years. While in those
states, he bounced from
rock station to rock
station, all the while
dreaming of his chance
to come back home.
Scott returned to gig at
local clubs such as The
Ritz in Roseville and
New York, New York in
Warren. While working
at these clubs, an
opportunity presented
itself. Program
Director Joe Bevelacqua
and Steve Black offered
Scott the morning show
at Z-Rock 102.7. The
Screamin Scott Morning
Show was born. After 3
and a half years,
Scott’s phone rang, and
on the other end was
Doug Podell, Program
Director at WRIF. Doug
offered Scott a position
at WRIF, and the timing
couldn’t have been any
better. Almost
immediately after Scott
left Z-Rock, Ted Nugent
started “killing The
Bear.” Scott now found
himself reaching a
personal goal by finally
making it to the mighty
Riff, where he always
dreamed of working.
Scott now
hosts the late-night
overnight program. As
an added bonus, he gets
the pleasure of also
hosting the Midnight
Metal show featuring all
sorts of different
metal. In addition to
his nightly airshift, he
also finds himself out
on the streets of the
Motor City at various
Riff concerts and club
nights. His liver
currently closely
resembles a piece of
beef jerky, so if you
happen to see him out on
the streets, please take
it easy on him!
