Pedro's Blog 

Pedro Bartes, Associate Producer/Joke Writer for the Bob Rivers Show, was born in Santa Fe Argentina and came with his wife, Luciana, to the USA to study broadcasting and speak English at the same time. They enrolled in Green River Community College and they started going on air in KGRG, where they hosted La Revolucion and Minority Report. Pedro was host of Antes de Medianoche in the then only 24-hour Spanish radio station in the Puget Sound. Antes de Medianoche has historically been the highest rated show in Spanish in the Puget Sound. When the station changed format, Pedro was let go and that's when Bob Rivers stepped in and decided to hire him as the Bob Rivers Show 8th member and Associate Producer. Eventually Bob made Pedro realize he was funny and could write jokes for fun. Pedro and his wife love radio so much that on the weekends they buy hours in a small multicultural radio station where they host Antes del Mediodia with other friends.

In his free time, Pedro likes to practice drums with his practice pad (he'd rather do it with a drum set, but he lives in a 700 square foot apartment), and he likes to think of jokes while working out. Pedro's jokes have been published in Newsday and re-posted in different websites. He still can't drive, but he keeps on promising he's gonna learn... one day...
