Todd Starnes made it perfectly clear.  He is proud to own KWAM and is determined to make local radio great again.

Starnes joined Bill O’Reilly (weeknights 8pm on KWAM) and other radio industry leaders at the Talkers Magazine 2022 Conference at Hofstra University.

It was a special appearance for Todd.  Instead of talking about the day’s biggest headlines he gave business advice, stressing the importance of hiring talented people to deliver consistent, high-quality content to the listeners.

O’Reilly, an 18-time New York Times #1 Bestseller, shared how he has continued his success despite leaving Fox News.  He said writing a book isn’t much different from having a radio or television program- all of them require time to perform extensive research.

Todd Starnes wasn’t the only KWAM on-air talent at the event.  “Wake Up Memphis” host Tim Van Horn was there as well as familiar voices Mary Walter, Martha Zoller & Jeff Katz, who was honored as Talkers Magazine’s Humanitarian of the Year Award Winner.

The 25th Talkers Magazine event also featured on-air talent, programmers, owners, and vendors from around the county.
