88.9 The Alternation

04/28/2025

Don’t forget to stop in TODAY from 5-8pm to help support WSTB and show your appreciation to Bob. He will also be there to say hi!

At Blasiole’s, we believe that community is more than a word—it’s the people who show up, lift others, and make Streetsboro a better place to live. That’s why we’re launching Blasiole’s Community Table, a monthly spotlight celebrating the individuals who inspire us, and giving back to causes close to their hearts.

🎙️ For our very first feature, we’re proud to honor Bob Long—a beloved teacher, General Manager and Chief Weather Forecaster of 88.9 WSTB, and a voice that’s helped shape Streetsboro for decades including public address announcing for Rockets football, basketball, and wrestling.

Since 1981 Bob has mentored thousands of students through broadcasting, education, and leadership. His impact is felt in every song on the radio, every student he’s guided, and every game he’s called. He’s a true community cornerstone.

🍕 To celebrate Bob and support what he cares about, we’re donating 10% of ALL SALES from 5–8PM on Monday, April 28, 2025, to 88.9 WSTB—the student-run radio station that’s been amplifying local voices for years--including my own.

Join us at the table. Grab a pizza. Give back.
