Brady Hicks is a Philadelphia area journalist, radio personality, blogger, columnist, wrestling reporter, professional wrestling manager, play-by-play commentator, color analyst, and occasional Pro Wrestling Illustrated contributing writer. Over the years, Hicks has penned thousands of columns, features, and news stories, and starred in weekly radio programs and podcasts such as his own IN THE ROOM program, formerly of WEXP Philly,〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=IN THE ROOM to Air on WEXP Radio, Philadelphia )〕 VOC Nation,〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=The Wrestling 5 & 1 )〕 formerly of WNJC, the DimpleDate Dating and Relationship Advice show, Jay V Mail,〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=About Jay V Mail )〕 and About 12 Minutes.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Brady Hicks Helps Found About 12 Minutes podcast )〕 ==Early years== Hicks was raised in suburban Philadelphia and attended La Salle University, where he gained recognition for his syndicated online wrestling columns,〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=ProWrestling.com Editorials )〕 and time spent as head booker for his own subscriber-based e-mail wrestling league.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=KUMming Soon )〕 As Hicks has stated on his show, this group had more than 500 subscribers at one time. Brady was also an avid reader of PWI "Apter Mags" growing up, and has credited Bill Apter himself was his biggest inspiration in his podcasts, as he often claimed during broadcasts of IN THE ROOM. Hicks would go on to write and edit for several publishers and area newspapers, including weekly newspapers under the Journal Register Company banner, and Metblogs-sponsored sites. During this time, Brady - serving in his capacity as a blogger - attempted to use only Six Degrees of Separation to acquire an interview with then-WTXF-TV Fox 29 traffic reporter Dorothy Krysiuk, now of WCVB-TV ABC 5 in Boston,〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Dorothy Krysiuk is back on TV )〕 a challenge somewhat modeled after film My Date With Drew. After catching the attention of Philadelphia Weekly,〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Philadelphia pseudo-celebrity at 10 o’clock! )〕 Hicks would succeed in his goal.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=E-stalker makes good with minor e-fame )〕 In 2005, while on assignment with the Northeast News Gleaner in Philadelphia, Hicks met and interviewed former WWE wrestler Shawn Michaels for a cover story〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=WWE's Born-Again Shawn Michaels Honored by University )〕 for the now-defunct newspaper. It was this interview (Michaels was the recipient of a Christian service award from Holy Family University) that inspired Hicks to become more active in wrestling journalism. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Brady Hicks」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
