The story of Jake is not an uncommon one. Boy meets girl, boy gets car, boy moves to Austin and lands radio gig. Boy loses car and girl... Lets back up to the beginning, Jake was born Jacob Basilio Tripper in the heavy metal capital of the world, San Antonio, Texas. Proud parents, Jack and Chrissy, had no idea that Jake, or "Son of a Bitch," as he was referred to by many of the ladies that kept his company, was actually a minion of the rock gods sent from the heavens. A gifted child, Jake had much promise and excelled at many activities (especially ones that favored his fast and strong right hand coordination), but despite all his promise he was often disciplined for his quick wit and unruly mouth. Jacob spent most of his time in front of the tube watching movies and studing Cobraki Karate via Kung-Fu Theatre. He dabbled in the pop and lock trade, but his career was later cut short when he was injured in a turf battle-off that took place on cardboard at the local mall. Blessed with a rock and roll face that would make Mick Jagger envious, Jake decided to grab his trusty ax and front a band. Despite huge female turnouts, the world wasn't ready for Jake's band "Mace and the Heavy Metal Minions" which was a hybrid of AC/DC and Hanson, and made up of songs about skating half pipes, preteen heartache and torturing cats with bottle rockets. The band disbanded, and Jake began coasting through high school aimlessly and filled with teenage angst.

And then, one fateful night, as he skated the downtown streets of S.A. searching for unlocked cars and runaway girls looking for a good time in the form of maddog 20/20, Jake came across a funny English man looking to relieve himself on the walls of the Alamo. The eccentric man was wearing a dress and was obviously intoxicated by the nectar of the gods. This was the prophet in disguise sent to give Jake the message to go North and pursue radio. So off he went and after many years of mopping the 101x floors, Melody Lee regretfully gave Jake a chance to have his voice be heard. Now all of Austin knows why ladies around the world love to refer to him as "Son of a Bitch."
