Afternoon Drive with Riley Reed

Photo: Q101


What’s going on? I’m Riley Reed and yes I’m aware of the other one. I’m originally from Richmond and graduated with a BFA in Theatre Performance from VCU. I started my radio career in RVA. Then I made the move to the Lehigh Valley, PA and spent the last 5 years doing radio there. I missed the South too much that I wanted to come back, so here I am; from one valley to another. My wife, (whom I often refer to as Wifey) is a JMU grad which makes me a Duke by marriage. GO DUKES! I went to The Dodger and Dave’s before they closed. I have family In Buffalo, NY so I support all of their professional teams, let’s go Buffalo! You’ll pretty much always catch me wearing a cap. I love a good craft beer, wings, & burgers so you might catch me at the many breweries in the area, Jack Brown’s or Billy Jack’s a lot!  If you want, follow me on Instagram and Twitter @iamrileyreed. If not, that’s cool too. Peace, love, and chicken grease!
