Ever wonder what it’s like to be fired via telegram or how you could possibly win your wife in a radio station contest? Join my conversation with Randy Miller, the iconic radio personality who influenced my early career and became a cornerstone of Kansas City's airwaves. We reminisce about my debut during the "Last DJ on the Planet" contest, and Randy opens up about his initial spark for radio, ignited by Frank Murphy in Knoxville, Tennessee. With a career that began at just 15, Randy never looked back, choosing entertainment as a career and creating dynamic morning shows that left a lasting impact.

This episode isn't just about radio nostalgia. We also dive into his passion for spy thrillers and supporting our troops with National Defense Network and Celebrity Salutes. From the unpredictable nature of playful career transitions to his humorous on-air escapades that led to multiple firings, we discuss the importance of adaptability and seizing new opportunities. Lastly, hear how my journey took a patriotic turn with the Veterans of Foreign Wars (VFW) and efforts to boost their public image through a nationally syndicated show. It’s a testament to the power of curiosity, creativity, and the courage to follow one's passion.
