Arizona's 'Other Senator', Jon Kyl On Dave Pratt's Morning Radio Show

Next Monday morning, March 20th, Arizona Senator Jon Kyl will be joining Dave Pratt on Valley radio station 107.9FM - KMLE Country.  Senator Kyl will be on during KMLE's morning show to talk about NASCAR, as he's apparently a huge NASCAR fan.  Dave Pratt, host of KMLE's morning show, is very well known in Valley radio.  While KMLE is a country station, Dave Pratt was famous for his 'red underwear' in the 1980's when he was on 97.9 KUPD, a Valley rock station.  I remember listening to him when I was in high school...in fact, there was an attempt to ban his show from many Valley school buses!  But the crazy parents only made him more popular with Valley teenagers, and we always listened to him on my bus anyway!

While my music tastes have evolved a little since my teenage years, Dave Pratt (a.k.a. 'the Morning Mayor') is still my favorite radio personality!  Even if you don't like country music, Dave Pratt and the KMLE morning show is a great way to start off your day.  It's especially interesting because channel 12 news anchor Mark Curtis (a.k.a. 'MC') is part of the show.  Dave and Mark have been friends for a long time and listening to them is like hanging out with friends!  You get to see a lot more of Mark Curtis's personality on Dave Pratt's morning show than you see on channel 12 news, and he's really pretty funny!  What I'm wondering is this...since Senator Kyl will be calling in to the KMLE morning show the next several Monday mornings, is MC going to get kicked to the curb on Mondays or will he still be calling into the show too?  Guess I'll have to listen to find out!  Along with Dave and MC, Shappy and Stacey Brooks are also part of KMLE's morning show.  Personally, I think Dave & Shappy are kinda mean to Stacey and need to stop ganging up on her...but it's all in fun and she seems to be able to hold her own with them anyway!  Dave Pratt in the Morning is on weekdays from 5AM - 9AM.

Senator Jon Kyl may not get quite as much attention from the national media as Arizona Senator John McCain, but Senator Kyl holds many key positions in Washington.  He serves on the Senate’s Finance Committee, where he chairs the Subcommittee on Taxation and IRS Oversight, and on the Judiciary Committee, where he chairs the Subcommittee on Terrorism, Technology and Homeland Security.  As Chairman of the Senate Republican Policy Committee, he is one of six members of the Senate Republican Leadership.  And if that's not enough, he also knows a great deal about NASCAR!

Senator Kyl will be on 107.9FM with 'Dave Pratt in the Morning' starting next Monday 3/20, and several Monday mornings thereafter.  So be sure and tune in to hear the Senator talk about NASCAR!
