Brothers From Another Mother: Ben and Skin (Sort Of) In Their Own Words Ben Rogers and Jeff "Skin" Wade have had the most unlikely rise to radio fame in Dallas history. Now they're ready for their next challenge: to overthrow Prestige Worldwide. Any full account of the spectacular rise of Ben “Kenobi” Rogers and Skinny “Skin” Wade to North Texas radio dominance during the weekday hours of 2 pm to 5 pm in the demographic of men aged 25 to 54 must necessarily begin on the storied hardwood of Richardson’s Huffhines Recreation Center. It was there, in the early ’80s, that the two middle schoolers met and formed a friendship not unlike that of Ben and Jerry, or Mac Daddy and Daddy Mac, or Cagney and Lacey, a friendship that would take them to great heights, some of which were achieved, truth be told, with the aid of dank weed supplied by their friend Erykah Badu. But it all began with pickup basketball games at Huffhines Rec. Ben’s game was predicated on his sinewy thighs and his willingness to call the weakest of fouls. Skin relied on profanity.
