Me Kimba: Radio Broad Cast

This Cast goes from South Florida to Las Vegas and back to South Florida.

Sweet Pete Brown is my special guest. We reminisce about the days of yore and also talk about the state of local music today.

You can hear Pete's new LP, "Last Dirty Dollar" which is streaming on all platforms, as is Company Kane's "Jonestown Kinship."

Find Pete on all social media platforms as @SweetPe...

I got to know Nickelback about a year before they were sent into the rock-n-roll stratosphere. As you'll hear, the guys are funny and engaging.

As promised in the Cast, if you've not yet seen their bit from the latest Deadpool movie (and a take on the Once Upon A Deadpool bit, which is also in the story) it's a hoot!

I chat with South Florida radio legend Paul Castronovo. He and I are both celebrating on-air anniversaries. We've known each other for nearly 40 years and have also worked together.

You can hear the Paul Castronovo Show with Heather and Mike every weekday morning 6-10 on BIG 1059. If you're not in South Florida, you can access the show via the iHeart Radio App.  IG @PaulCastronovoShow

This benefit took place November 19th at Piper's Pub in Pompano Beach. In one day, we raised over $7200 to help the Justin Bartlett Animal Rescue and Hospital. Their goal is to build a shelter on a plot of land where the animals can frolic while awaiting their furever home.

Me, Kimba and co-organizer Jimi Robinette (JIMBA) took a tour of the facility so that people would get a bit more insight as to where they were do...

As part of being a radio DJ,  giving information about impending storms isn't the only way we help.

I zoomed with the University of Florida GHQ radio staff at their final 'All In' meeting of the semester. We chat about all things radio. It's very much an inside or behind-the-scenes look and listen as to what we do ... or try to do. Thanks to Glenn Richards and Rob Harder for making it happen.

You've been waiting for another episode? #MeToo  Aw, don't be #scerred. 
You've seen the news reports. You've maybe heard the segments on anything from Full Frontal to the Daily Show to  CBS Sunday Morning. Everyone is talking about sexual harassment, whether in the workplace or out in the streets. I touch on some of the harassment stories I, or some of my colleagues, have experienced in radio.

Valentine's Weekend. The first half of the podcast is a highlight of my career and the second half revisits one of the darkest days.

I share an interview with a band that was right at the beginning of their ascent into superstardom. The singer's birthday also happens to be February 15th. It is also the 3rd Anniversary of a tragic event that has a deep connection to me, and all of South Florida. 

Please b...

Ahhh, the holidays! For radio DJs, it's a chance to get a little extra creative. For this radio DJ, that meant writing a Christmas blues song some 30 years ago - if you dare, you'll hear it in this episode. You'll hear 'holiday wishes' promos from my colleagues of yore, and one of the more 'dark' bits I did every year around this time, 'The Fate of Santa'. #don't judge

It was one year ago on this date that I was terminated from my radio job. Given, what 2020 hath wrought, it could be worse. 
I wanted to thank all of you for your support throughout the years, and in listening to this podcast/vodcast. I'm still hoping to find a place on-air, and I'll let you know when that happens!
On the plus side, 1st anniversary is paper, so that can only mean good thing$😉

I am joined by Elias Soriano, Nonpoint vocalist, to talk about the 20th Anniversary of their major label debut 'Statement'. The band is from South Florida - I first started playing them on my local show - and you'll hear an interview from August of 2000, right before the band was to shoot the video for the first single, 'What A Day'. We haven't really seen each other in a long time, but as I think you&...

Collapsing Lungs/L.U.N.G.S. member Chris Nicholas joins me to talk about the history of the band and share what they're doing now.
