 BLAIR GARNER

             

 

 

 

 

Our fearless commander, master of ceremonies, and overall circus ringleader — Blair Garner.  Most importantly, though, Blair’s the dad.  The cool, hip, wish-he-was-your-dad kind of dad.  Not only to his twins Braxton & Ava, but also to the whole show — mainly Chuck.  And he may have 30 years of radio experience under his belt, accolades to his name, and a recent induction to the National Radio Hall of Fame, but don’t let that fool you.  He rarely takes himself seriously.  Nor does anyone else, for that matter.  Now if we’re talking cars…that’s a different story.  He doesn’t joke about cars.  Since Blair was 12, growing up in Canyon, Texas, he’s bought and sold over 180 cars.  Needless to say, it’s his passion when he’s not waking you up every weekday.     

 

TERRI CLARK

  

 

 

 

 

A self-proclaimed meat-atarian, Terri is what every guy wants in a girl and what every girl wants to be for a guy.  Except heels.  You won’t ever catch her in heels.  Or a dress.  But you WILL find her in a Cowboy hat.  She is the classic “pull yourself up by your own bootstraps” kind of story.  A native of Canada, she came to Nashville on a nickel and a prayer.  Quickly working her way up the honky-tonk scene, she became a multi-platinum selling singer/songwriter with multiple #1 hits to her accord.  Now, nearly 20 years later, she is still touring across the US and Canada, co-hosting America’s Morning Show and making a new album with Michael Knox (Jason Aldean’s producer).  But don’t worry, she still finds time to enjoy her favorite glass of red wine.    

 

CHUCK WICKS

                     

 

 

 

 

The little brother you never wanted.  That’s Chuck.  A former Dancing with the Stars contestant and “Stealing Cinderella” singer, Chuck is the eternal 12-year-old.  So we’ve dubbed him leader of The Idiot Parade.  When he’s not taking a selfie (or Chuckie as we call it), you’ll find him tweeting about himself, looking in the mirror or loving on his Cavalier King Charles pups Cooper and Duke.  Growing up on a Delaware potato farm, he’s no stranger to hard work, he just doesn’t like it.  Chuck also has new music out in 2014, so don’t miss it!

 

ROBIN MEADE

   

 

 

 

 

Much more than a pretty face and a preacher’s kid, Robin Meade has been anchoring HLN’s Morning Express since 2001.  A staple in broadcast journalism for the past 20 years, she also moonlights as a country music singer/songwriter with two albums under her belt, authors a New York Times Bestseller, AND brings us news “in the fast lane” every half hour from the CNN Headquarters in Atlanta.  Thank goodness multi-tasking is her strong suit.    

 

ERIKA GRACE POWELL

                  

 

 

 

TMZ ain’t got nothin’ on Erika Grace Powell.  A recent Miss USA and Miss Universe State Title holder from South Carolina, Erika is an expert in all things celebrity and country!  She has the scoop on celebrity gossip from Nashville to Hollywood and everywhere in between.  Plus, she’ll get you behind-the-scenes for every Nashville party!  Does your favorite artist have a new #1 single or perhaps a new album coming out?  Then don’t worry, Erika’s got it covered.

 

 

BEHIND THE SCENES

 

QUEEN MCBEE

Long live the Queen.  Her Almighty Highness, Heather “Queen” McBee takes care of everything you ever hear on-air.  She sits on her throne whipping the staff into shape and making sure all us worker bees are makin’ that sweet honey.    

 

SILENT MATT

You may never hear his voice, but Silent Matt actually has the loudest job of all.  You know that big board with all the buttons?  He somehow makes it work.  You like that background music?  That’s Matt.  Or what about your favorite song?  That’s Matt.  If you hate a song, be nice.  Matt’s only doing his job. 

 

OFF-ERIC

Something just isn’t right with this guy.  Not only is he typically Off-Air, he typically is just…off.  Off key, off target, off pitch…off everything.  Luckily he manages to keep the cast on-target and the audience pumped up!        

 

PRODUCER IAN

We’re still trying to figure out Producer Ian.  Half Russian Spy, half Radio Producer is our best guess so far. 

 

KELSEY THE LIONESS

A woman who claims Dolly Parton is her “spirit animal,” Kelsey The Lioness is a rare breed.  The voice of all our social media, Kelsey The Lioness brings you our daily videos, Twitter updates and Facebook posts.
