[I-ROCK] WHERE ARE YOU FROM?
[Jackson] I am from Alton, IL, but I tell everyone I am from St. Louis, the home of the World Champion St. Louis Cardinals, so they know the general region I am talking about. You ever heard of Alton? No. That's why I say St. Louis, the home of the World Champion St. Louis Cardinals. Did you know that the Cardinals, who won the World Series last year, are from the same place I am?

[I-ROCK]WHAT'S THE COOLEST THING ABOUT WORKING AT I-ROCK?
[Jackson] That I do whatever the hell I want all day, and I get free food.

[I-ROCK]FAVORTIE I-ROCK ARTISTS?
[Jackson] Maiden, Megadeth, Metallica, Killswitch Engage, Foo Fighters, Weezer.

[I-ROCK]WHAT DO YOU TALK ABOUT ON YOUR SHOW?
[Jackson] Mostly things that make me mad, but also music news, contests, and how white our night guy Cameron is.

[I-ROCK]WHAT JOBS OTHER THAN RADIO HAVE YOU HAD?
[Jackson]Right now I am a hockey instructor at Pepsi Ice Center. I've been a reporter, photographer, grass cutter, and professional wake-blade parasailor, but more recently I've gotten back into photography. I have my own business, JAX PHOTOGRAPHY, which I started up last year. Hit me up if you're getting married, or know of anyone who is! I've also worked for the Peoria Rivermen and Bloomington Prairie Thunder and Blaze as a photographer.

[I-ROCK]ANYTHING ELSE?
[Jackson]I've become a fitness nut. I workout 6 days a week, eat healthy food, and will challenge anyone to a pull up contest. I do all of this in cut-off Slayer shirts while listening to Slayer. Slayer rules. Here are some cool things to check out.

PaleOMG - a great spot to find nutritious recipes.

Crossfit Bloomington Normal

T-Nation, this place will teach you how to be manly.

Complete Nutrition - a great place for supplements.

I'm also a big St. Louis Blues fan, love riding mountain bikes, playing hockey, shooting guns, still skateboard every now and then, I'm married to a similarly-minded fitness nut, I have two dogs, a big truck, two tattoos, a master's degree in communication, and for some reason, I kinda like cutting my grass. I find life to be pretty awesome, so haters, please take your negativity elsewhere!
