Suzy Cole is
a Michigander. Born and
raised in Grand Rapids,
she often found herself
explaining where Grand
Rapids is in comparison
to Detroit on her right
hand, which people from
other states don't
really understand.
She got
into radio when she was still in high school in Grand
Rapids (or the G-Rap as she calls it) From
there she went to Holland, Lansing, back to the G-Rap
and finally ending up here at the RIFF. Familiar with
the area because "only the good shows come to Detroit,"
she always knew that she wanted to work at WRIF and
couldn't be happier.
A few things that you might want to know about Ms. Cole
are:
Suzy has an incredibly huge tongue. She thinks that her
mom is keeping a very large secret about being a member
of the KISS ARMY. (But besides the tongue, she
fortunately doesn't look anything like Gene Simmons.)
She loves music and is obsessed with David Bowie, Motley
Crue, and Guns N Roses. (Her
mom also has the hots for
Tommy Lee.) That's not all though, she's pretty much
into everything out there...even Triumph! In fact, you
can probably find her out at a show of any sort when
she's not working...any show...we think she's A.D.D.
Suzy drinks lots of beer and whiskey, but has sworn off
just about all other sorts of liquid as she thinks water
is over-rated and tequila makes her crazy. (But who
doesn't get crazy on that stuff!) If you see her out in
the wild, it is not uncommon for shots to be consumed. (her
actual battle cry is “SHOTS BITCHES!!!”) This is just a
natural phenomenon with Suzy. Don't be afraid.
