How Did You Choose Your DJ Name? At the first station I worked at in Columbia, Mo Y107, when I attended Mizzou, my boss then (now my Facebook friend) called me Robyn Night because I worked the night shift, well that was not my last name at the time. Then when I suggested it to my boss now Myron D he liked it and Robyn Knight was born. Friend me on Facebook: Robyn Thicke Knight
How Did You Get Into Radio? Well as you see I went to the best school ever the University of Missouri-Columbia and I started on campus radio, interned at a radio station in St. Louis (when Nelly and the St.Lunatics hit the airwaves), started working weekend shifts on Y107 in Columbia and after I graduated had the honor to join the Hot 103 Jamz Fam.
