Bill Raniolo

from Reflections of '96

In this episode, Bill Raniolo reflects on growing up with the Class of '96, the friendships and freedom of that era, and how those years shaped his outlook on life. He talks about playing sports, not yet knowing his path in high school, and eventually building a long career in television news, including work at News 12, Fox News, and CBS. Bill also shares how covering major tragedies like 9/11 and Sandy Hook changed his perspective, giving him a deeper understanding of struggle, resilience, and the importance of kindness. He opens up about marriage, fatherhood, the differences between raising kids now versus how his generation was raised, and the way technology has changed communication and childhood.
