Meet Suzee Giglio: The Phone Babe. Giglio, annointed as Matty in the Morning's "Phone Babe," has been working at KISS 108 for almost 6 years now.
Giglio had dreamed about working for a radio station her entire life. While Giglio can sometimes be heard blaring Aerosmith from her desk, opting to drown out the pop beats of Lady Gaga, she has landed the ultimate job.
"I work 4 hours a day, 5 days a week. I get to meet celebrities, hang out with some of the funniest people on the earth and work in an amazing environment," Giglio said. "I couldn't have asked for a better job."
While Giglio dreams of making it big in radio someday, she is fine where she is right now. Giglio described how she got the job, saying, “I interned for the morning show when I was in college- I went to Bridgewater State. After I finished school, I stayed interning for a while. Eventually, they offered me this position. I was trying to go for a different position, but I happily accepted this one. I love doing it so much that the early hours no longer overwhelm me.”
Giglio explains exactly what it is that she does on the Morning Show, saying, “I answer the switchboard throughout the morning during the show. I deal with some of the crazy callers that call in. I put the callers on the air for Matty and the crew to talk to them, including celebrities. I do the paperwork for the people who win the contests, and I get all of their information beforehand so that Matt knows a little bit about them. One of the busiest times of the show is during the “Right Now” segment, where listeners call in to talk about what is going on in their lives. There are a lot of callers during this time and sometimes it can get tough deciding which ones to let through.”
"I really have no complaints," Giglio said. "I look forward to work every single day."

Here, Giglio answers the phones during the "Right Now" segment. Giglio listens to each caller's story and decides whether to put them through to the on-air studio.
