Brad Pierce has been ""talking the words good"" since the 20th Century. A native of Cranston, RI, he carved out a rewarding career in broadcasting and voice work leading to his induction into The Rhode Island Radio and Television Hall of Fame. An on-air DJ in Providence for 17 years, his second phase behind the microphone took root in Hollywood as host of a daily nationwide radio show.

In Hits and Misses, he recounts his unique journey with numerous takes on life as a performer and the unique experiences he enjoyed along the way. From introducing weekly NFL games and NCAA football and basketball games, voicing promos for stations like WPLJ and WOR in New York and WDRC-FM in Hartford, Brad has that familiar voice that you have probably heard between the hits and promos.

Kick back and enjoy the stories that go with being an invisible entertainer on the radio as well as some invaluable life lessons learned along the way. They're all here in Brad Pierce's story, Hits and Misses.
