Freak (Wally Kozielski)
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
"Freak" (born as Walter Kozielski), is a radio personality and former rock band roadie. Kozielski was a former cohort of the Chicago-based nationally syndicated morning radio talk show, Mancow's Morning Madhouse, hosted by Erich "Mancow" Muller. Kozielski is of Polish heritage.
His start in radio happened by chance when a friend got him a job at WTMX-FM (The Mix - 101.9 FM) He began at the station by playing music by the likes of Celine Dion, Michael Bolton, & Wilson Phillips until the chance to work at The Blaze (103.5 FM) surfaced and he jumped on it. The Blaze later became Rock 103.5 and he stayed aboard and it was there that he hooked up with a new morning show called Mancow's Morning Madhouse.
While Kozielski was with Mancow's Morning Madhouse since the show's debut in 1994, he was best known as Mancow's traffic reporter. Occasionally Kozielski, would bark out traffic reports over the Chicagoland airwaves, occasionally having to be calmed down by Mancow. Kozielski also gave reports of music news and other show segments. Kozielski left Mancow's Morning Madhouse in late 2003.
Kozielski, formerly of WRCX-FM 103.5, WKQX-FM 101.1 and WZZN-FM 94.7, currently at WRXQ-FM 100.7 in southwest suburban Chicago, IL. He serves as Program Director and runs weekday afternoons 2-7p, central time.
