Peter Rosenberg
Peter Elliot Rosenberg (born July 23, 1979) is an American radio disc jockey, television show host, and professional wrestling personality. He was a co-host of two New York City radio programs: Ebro in the Morning, the weekday morning show at hip hop radio station WQHT (Hot 97), and Don, Hahn, & Rosenberg, the afternoon drive show on ESPN Radio affiliate WHSQ.
Rosenberg was born in Chevy Chase, Maryland to M.J. Rosenberg, a Capitol Hill staffer father and public school teacher mother. He attended Bethesda-Chevy Chase High School in Bethesda, Maryland and grew up in Chevy Chase. He says his upbringing was "a very Jewish, upper middle class, regular suburban life." He was introduced to hip hop by his older brother, and has cited popular songs including "Parents Just Don't Understand" by DJ Jazzy Jeff & the Fresh Prince as early influences. Visiting his grandparents in Rockaway Beach in Queens, New York, he was influenced by radio shows hosted by DJ Red Alert and Marley Marl. He obtained his first set of turntables at the age of 14.
In the summer before his freshman year at the University of Maryland in College Park, Peter Rosenberg started hosting a late-night underground hip hop show, From Dusk 'Til Dawn, on campus radio station WMUC-FM. His initial DJ name was "PMD," an acronym for "Peter From Maryland" (a name given to him by Marley Marl while he won a contest on Marl's radio show). After graduating from college, Rosenberg performed as a DJ at a variety of radio stations in the DC area, including WPGC, WHFS and on talk radio at WJFK-FM. He began making online parody videos, which were seen by the soon-to-be program manager of New York's Hot 97 Ebro Darden, and that led to his 2007 hiring at the radio station.
Rosenberg co-hosted the weekday morning show, The Hot 97 Morning Show, on Hot 97 from 6 to 10 a.m. with Ebro Darden, Cipha Sounds, and Laura Stylez, and later Ebro in the Morning. They played contemporary hip hop and R&B tracks, interview musicians, and discuss music, relationships, sex and race in a straightforward style. He also hosted Real Late With Rosenberg on Sunday nights on Hot 97. Hot 97 is the most listened-to hip hop station in New York City and Rosenberg has said that he dreamed of being on the station as a child.
Rosenberg is known for supporting and introducing the public to up-and-coming New York rap artists. He was the first media personality to interview rapper Earl Sweatshirt after he returned in 2012 from a nearly two-year hiatus in Samoa. In an April 2014 New Yorker article on Rosenberg, he said, "Since I have a foot in both worlds, an artist can play me three tracks, and I can go, ‘This one only hip-hop heads like me will appreciate. This one could be big, but it’s corny. But this one could reach a lot of people, without you sacrificing who you are’".
After becoming mayor of New York City in 2014, Bill de Blasio's debut traditional Friday morning mayoral radio interview was by phone with Rosenberg and Ebro on The Hot 97 Morning Show. Rosenberg also hosts a number of podcasts including Bite the Mic with Mike Tyson. On March 6, 2020, it was announced Rosenberg had signed a deal with WWE to host their monthly pay per view panel shows, as well as other related projects.
Rosenberg's tenure at Hot 97 ended on December 12th, 2025, along with the shows Real Late with Peter Rosenberg and Ebro in the Morning, of which he was a co-host.
Rosenberg became a co-host of the Michael Kay Show on ESPN New York in 2015 with Michael Kay and Don La Greca. After Michael Kay's departure from the afternoon time-slot in December 2024, he became the co-host of Don, Hahn, and Rosenberg with La Greca and Alan Hahn, airing from 3-7 PM EST on WHSQ.
