Young Ben would grow up to become a radio legend, working at WMCA and WPLJ in New York before returning home to huge success at KMEL, The Quake (KQAK) and Live 105 (KITS) as the one and only Alex Bennett.

In 2004, Alex took his show to satellite, hosting a daily program on Sirius  (Channel 146, known as "Sirius Left").
