Just when you thought it was safe to go back outside, the world throws us another curve ball. Well, kinda. A new area code is about to debut in Tampa and Hillsborough county. Yep, first it was COVID-19, then it was endless waiting for stimulus checks, now it’s a 3-digit number that you’ll have to dial before placing a call. Portions of the 813 area code will be affected by the new one. When placing a call to a phone with the new area code, simply start the number with 656. The 813 area code will remain, but they’ve simply run out of numbers. Gone are the days of calling someone with only seven digits. That means you’ll be reprogramming your phones soon. DAGNABBIT! The new number will become active early in 2022. – Sean Roberts

Sean Roberts was conceived in the Corvette Assembly Plant in Bowling Green, Kentucky by two passionate, panel aligning, third shifters who had grown bored with the same ole same ole. Upon birth, he was placed in the trunk of a new Stingray and sent off to find his destiny.
That destiny included several stints on radio stations across the United States. Some played punk country gospel, while others focused on Croatian death metal played backwards.
After many years and many adventures, Sean wound up on The Shark, where he does shots of tequila while playing the most badass tunes ever created by humankind.
He remains humble, however, never forgetting about the lean years...the street corners and dark alleys where he played songs on his car stereo for food and sex.
He's on top and he's never gonna stop LIVING THE DREAM!
