Big D began radio at age 14, at a 1000-watt Christian
radio station, WATX-AM in Cookeville, Tennessee.
At this station, he hosted his first talk show at the
tender age of 17, interviewing local southern gospel
groups. From there he went to mornings on WKXD-FM
(Oldies) in Cookeville, Tennessee.
Big D's first country radio experience came when he
spent three years in Big Sky Country at KIDX-FM98
The Dawg in Billings, Montana. It was here that he fell
in love with both the country and the country lifestyle.
He came to know and be friends with rodeo riders like
Clint Branger and Deb Greenough. By mixing good
country fun with community service events, he earned
two prestigious awards, "Best Morning Show in the State
of Montana" by the Montana Broadcasters Association,
and "Best New Morning Show" by The Heart Of Billings
Magazine. In Billings, Big D met his wife Kathy. Big D then moved to
Baton Rouge to do mornings on WXCT-FM (Country).
It was there that he met Bubba. The new team then made
the switch to cross-town rival WYNK-FM.
Bubba became a disc jockey at a country music radio station
in his hometown of Houma. He then learned that the world
was actually bigger than this small oil and fishing town in the
swamps, so he spent the next few years traveling to work in
far away places like Guam and Tokyo working at Top 40 music
stations. He used these jobs to see parts of Asia, Australia,
and the Islands of the South Pacific.
Bubba eventually got homesick and returned to the United
States and ended up working in Saginaw and Detroit, Michigan
(Top 40). From there he went to El Paso, Texas (Top 40), Reno,
Nevada (Country), Miami, Florida (Talk Radio), and New Orleans
(Top 40) and finally to Baton Rouge. It was there that he met
and married his wife Stacey. And also it was here that he met
and teamed up with Big D......
