Designing Women, Dec 2 2007 - Photo: Lori Sax 

Welcome!

My name's Cliff Roles, and among other things I'm an award-winning radio talk-show host. I broadcast my daily radio show, Talk of the Sun Coast, live Monday thru Friday from 4 to 5 pm on Sarasota's 1220 AM WSRQSo if you live in Sarasota or Manatee County, Florida, tune your radio to 1220 AM; if you're anywhere else in the world, you can listen via the LIVESTREAM here on the Net.

I love to network and make new friends, so I also have MySpace and Facebook, and I am a columnist for Scene Magazine, the oldest and most widely distributed magazine on Florida’s Southwest Coast, so be sure to watch out for my column every month! I'm a professional German>English translator, a narrator, an Audiobook reader, and I also enjoy doing voiceovers and TV commercials. And I was Ringmaster for Circus Sarasota in its 2006 and 2007 seasons.

I'm an actor, and act regularly in various plays and musicals at, among others, the Players of Sarasota, Venice Little TheatreManatee Players, Golden Apple Dinner Theatre and the Backlot.

Please have a look at my brand new Actor Page at AnythingArts.com!

I enjoy being Master of Ceremonies/Auctioneer at community and corporate events and fundraisers. Current dates and more can be found in my NEWS section and on my MySpace.com page.
