On this episode we sit down and talk to former Rock Radio Programmer, Air Talent, MTV Coordinating Producer Neal Mirsky, who was voted "Rock Program Director of the Year" by his peers in 1998, 2000 and 2002. After spending many years on Rock Radio stations in Florida, hear how Neal became a radio star on the video channel "MTV". Neal has also produced the nationally syndicated "Howard Stern Show" and shares a not so flattering moment on the air with Stern.
