Texas born and Texas proud! I’ve got tattoos to prove it!! I got my start in radio in 1989. Worked all over Texas including an 8 year stint in Houston. My passion is country music, and the country music lifestyle! I keep my finger pressed firmly on the pulse of the Texas/Red Dirt scene, and pass along the exciting new music, and artists that I get to experience. I have two amazing children. My son Zackary, 16 years old, and in the Marine Corp JROTC! He’s my boy! My daughter Zara is my little princess, and 7 years old. I love my children, my family, my friends, and my God! I get to work in the greatest job, with the greatest people in the world every….single….day! It’s good to be home.

Thor’s Hammer Weighs How Much??!
I asked and the internet provided. I'm kind of a comic book geek, and have been for most of my life: started with Spider Man, Batman, and my favorite, Thor! Thor has a cool hammer that only he can carry; pretty impressive for a guy wearing a skirt. I've always wondered how heavy that thing really is though. Lucky for me someone made a video explaining that very thing.

KICKS 105 Acoustic Studio: William Clark Green
William Clark Green knew at age 13 that he would pursue a career writing and singing songs. He attended college at Texas Tech, and played in front of a crowd as often as he could. I discovered WCG a few years ago, like I usually do, with someone sharing the video for the song, "Caroline" from his first album Misunderstood. I was blown away by this young man from Flint Texas.
