This week on AT Banter, Rob, Ryan, and Lis are joined by the one and only Kelly McDonald, beloved AMI radio and television host, for a heartfelt and hilarious conversation about the end of an era and the start of an exciting new chapter. After eight and a half amazing years, Kelly and Company is signing off, leaving behind an incredible legacy: 2,000 episodes, 900 guests, and 1,300 community reports! Kelly shares behind-the-scenes stories, what the show meant to the community, and what’s next with his brand-new show Reflections—a deep-dive, documentary-style series launching this September. We also chat about how media is evolving in the age of streaming and remote work, and why audio description, accessibility, and authentic representation are more important than ever.
