    This podcast episode is Talking About Radio with, yours truly, John Leslie…with guest host Elizabeth Grattan.

    I recently had the opportunity to interview Elizabeth on a previous episode about her career in the industry and we decided it might be interesting to flip the script and the result is an entertaining and insightful look into my very own journey.

    Elizabeth is known all across the country for her outstanding imaging, voice tracking and voice-over work. Now, she has shown herself to be an accomplished interviewer.

    Elizabeth stepped into my role and executed it flawlessly. She is witty, charming, intellectual, probing and able to pull emotions to the forefront as she interviews her guests. I know, because it happened to me!

    Please be sure to listen to this ever entertaining episode of Talking About Radio With Elizabeth Grattan. It really was fun.

  • Don Clark is a truly unique radio professional. His upbeat, amusing style just flows out of the radio and into the audience. He is Talking About Radio with John Leslie

    When I first heard Don Clark, I said to my wife, "listen to this guy, he is really great." Turns out Don has been entertaining audiences and making them laugh all across the midwest, northeast and south. His humor is contagious and fun to listen too.

    In this podcast, I believe Don Clark and I did more laughing than we did talking. After 30 years of spinning the hits and give'm the fits, Don is now host of a popular syndicated show called, "Don's Basement Hits."

    I promise that you will enjoy listening to this episode as much as I enjoyed recording it with Don Clark. Don't pass up the chance to laugh and smile.
