Sports radio (and sports writing) has been a passion of mine since the 1980s and talk radio has quickly climbed the list of priorities for me as well.

In recent years, I've dived headfirst into local news and politics and found a true home on talk radio. Fortunately, I've been married to the best woman alive for more than 33 years and wouldn't trade a single minute of it.

The Pros and Cons of St. George Police Department’s Bodycams
