Welcome to the official site of The Sin Bin, ComRadio's longest running show! Thank you for visiting.
We got our start in January 2005, thanks to the collective genius of J.J. Terlecki and Ray Schmitt, then sophomores at Penn State. The show, originally, was a twice-weekly one hour show on Monday and Wednesday, a format it maintained until 2007.
In September 2006, current host Sean Frey (that would be me) joined the show as a sophomore, along with freshman Brendan Shorts. We became the Monday night tandem, and inherited the show when Terlecki and Schmitt graduated in May 2007.
Not content to do a two-person show in 07-08, we brought on Rob Skorochocki, at the time a junior from Hamilton, N.J., and Matt Caracappa, a senior from Randolph, N.J. The show moved to Tuesdays at 10 pm, and at year's end, Caracappa was sent off with "Matt Caracappa Night," complete with a brief segment of his greatest hits, and as Brendan quipped, "All fans in attendance received a Matt Caracappa bobblehead doll."
2008 saw great changes. The format was adjusted and Josh Rifkin, who had helped out in 07-08 as a freshman, joined the show full-time, as did Ryan Wood, a junior and Pittsburgh native. Now in its fifth season, The Sin Bin is proudly marching into the future.
The show has many claims to fame. With the demise of Under the Bleachers, a show that began in October 2004, The Sin Bin assumed the role as ComRadio's longest continuously running show as of Fall 2008. It also has the distinction, according to production director Tommy DiVito, of having the most sound clips on the network--a mark that cannot be verified, but is certainly a sign of how far we have come from our humble beginnings.
Tune in on Tuesdays at 10, or check out our podcasts to catch up on past episodes. Hope you enjoy our site!
