1. Most people associate you with your long tenure at KLLY/Bakersfield. How did it come to pass that you are now a radio station owner?
My mother passed away last year and left me a small inheritance. She asked me to invest it in property or a business. Her fear was I would just sit on it and spend it slowly. We went house hunting and didn't find anything we could afford. We have five kids so we need a big house. I wasn't sure what type of business I could own, I know nothing about any business except radio. I was on an e-mail blast from radio broker in town that listed radio stations for sale. I saw he had some in nearby markets. I talked to my wife and asked if she would like to run a radio station and I could still have my job in town. Might be a good idea since we both know radio and if it's cheap enough, then it could be a "bonus" income.
