Jax Radio: Robbie Rose Celebrates 50-Years


Robbie Rose, a Jacksonville radio personality at iHeartMedia's Country 99.1 WQIK, made his debut as a traffic reporter five decades ago.

That makes him the longest-running local radio personality, according to Jax4 TV.

Rose is on the radio every weekday morning from 5 a.m. to 10 a.m. on WQIK’s “Big Show,” where he discusses the daily headlines and interviews guests.

Jacksonville Mayor Lenny Curry stopped by the radio station Wednesday, where he declared it “Robbie Rose Day.” The mayor presented Rose with a key to the city, commemorating his decades of public service.

WQIK hosted a party following the Big Show to celebrate Rose’s milestone. Dozens of people were there to congratulate him.
