About Me………

 

 

I believe that being a talk radio host is not only about having views,  and expressing opinions,  but explaining to the listener how one arrives at those views, and opinions.   Unlike most hosts,  I’m not a former DJ,  or lawyer,  politician, or a journalist.  I’m not even the son of a lawyer,  or a politician,  or a journalist.  I come  from a modest background, growing up in a very small town in California.  My two brothers and sister and I were raised by our dad, who was a mailman,  and mom,  a nurse.  By American standards,  we were a lower-middle class,  blue collar family.  Predictably,  my parents were both staunch supporters of the Democrat party.  I graduated high school and went on to college as a music/liberal arts major.  As one might guess based on my upbringing, and college background,  I followed in the traditions of my family and held fairly liberal beliefs. That is,  until I began my career as a professional musician.   In my career,  I have been blessed to  have traveled to 6 continents and 45 countries.  My experiences are as broad as they are diverse.  I have performed for dignitaries such as the Queen of England, Nelson Mandella,  George W. and Jeb Bush and a host of others.  I even performed for ( gulp ) Bill Clinton at his 1996 Inaugural celebration ( which was the most expensive in Presidential history. ironic,  isn’t it? )  At the same time,  I have seen the most poverty ravaged cities in the world,  from the ( former ) Soviet Union to the shanties of Soweto,  South Africa.  In short,  I have seen the  best and the worst this world has to offer.  From extreme wealth to extreme poverty ( the likes of which the majority of Americans simply cannot fathom ).  This experience offered me a very unique perspective and changed my views about American life and politics forever.  I gained the type of knowledge and insight that simply cannot be obtained from a Harvard Law Degree.  Each time I would travel outside the U.S. I was more and more grateful for all of the blessing of being an American.  I also became more and more disenchanted with the negativity and pessimism  of the liberals and the Democrats. Their definition of America’s “ poor and oppressed “ are simply unrealistic and completely out of line with the realities of the world which I began to see first hand,  with my own eyes.  I learned that being poor in America is actually considered rich by much of the rest of the world.  I also began to take note of the Socialist underpinnings of the Democrat ideology.  In my travels,  I have been able to see the failings of Socialism around the world and how it actually crushes the human spirit by stifling creativity,  ingenuity and innovation.  It is for these reasons and a host of others that I became conservative.  God blessed me with not only these life changing experiences,  but also with the ability to communicate in a clear and concise manner.  I felt compelled therefore,  to find a vehicle to use these gifts that God gave me and Talk Radio seemed to be the perfect place.  My objective is to share my perspectives in hopes of persuading more Americans to stop listening to the Liberal Left who’s only message seems to be negativity,  as well as envy and jealousy of anyone who has even one dime more than you do.   Instead,  I want to project a more positive message of how incredibly lucky we all are to live here.  To be grateful for the unique blessings of simply being an American and living in this,  the greatest,  most free and prosperous nation on earth.
