Jonathan, the Owner and Host of Rotting Flesh Radio, has been haunting for his whole life. From his early beginnings doing a Home Haunt, throwing Annual Halloween Parties and finally moving on to working the Pro-Haunt Arena. In the summer of 2005, while driving to the Midwest Haunters Convention, he had this idea to take hold of new technologies and find a way to keep Haunters, Halloween Enthusiasts, Horror Fans all connected in a fun and entertaining way.
It was during that weekend he worked out the details with two fellow Haunters and the humble beginnings of Rotting Flesh Radio were born. As the months progressed he soon found himself leaving the haunt he was affiliated with and on October 5, 2005 the first RFR aired.
Since then Rotting Flesh Radio has grown with what has been dubbed as its “Army of Deadite Listeners” making the show grow each and every week. The show has continued to be the Official Media Sponsor for such events as: Midwest Haunters Convention Since 2006, HAuNTcon Since 2007, Transworld Haunt Show in 2007, and a variety of Horror, Haunt and other related fests, conventions and gatherings. You can find RFR Jonathan, and the Casket Crew vending at the RFR Morgue Booth at event, Tradeshows, Conventions and more. Jonathan has been a seminar speaker at many events on Marketing, Advertising and Design pulling in his daytime position as an Art Director and Graphic Designer.
Rotting Flesh Radio continues to evolve every week with the help of its listeners and Jonathan’s drive to make the show the best it can be. And with little Morbid Tidbits like its “Annual Haunt Tours” and its “Morbidly Merry Christmas Celebration” it remains fun, nostalgic and eccentric at times with Jonathan filling it with his vast array of entertainment from the 20s through today.
In 2008, Jonathan & RFR founded Costumes For Kids, a Charity for Children with Disabilities and those Less Fortunate to Celebrate Halloween. In addition to Rotting Flesh Radio, Jonathan is an Art Director and Senior Graphic Designer for an Advertising Agency working with many high end sports clients, television stations and a variety of companies. His goal is to bring the very best show he can every week to you and make you “feel at home with friends” whether you are a newcomer to the Industry, a Vet or just curious, he wants you to direct the show that you want to hear. As he says, now it is time to: Sit Back, Relax and Rot Away…
