Totally 80s Hosts

Alan Roberts

Alan began his radio career in 1988, in Lancaster, California. In 1990, he moved to South Carolina, where he did the morning show on WOCW. He then returned to the west in 1991 and has been in Las Vegas ever since. After 20 years on the radio in Las Vegas, Alan was inducted into the Radio Broadcasters Hall of Fame. He is very excited to be part of JungleCat Radio and is enjoying the ride. When Alan is not on the radio, you can find him in the theatre enjoying his favorite pastime, acting, or spending time with his dog, Riley.

JJ MacKenzie

JJ’s radio career began in 1988 at Y102 FM in Florida back when big hair and bigger sound ruled. After a stop at KAVL/KAVS in California and a snow-filled stint at Central Michigan University, where he earned his broadcasting degree and worked at WCFX, JJ returned to California and traded the mic for a video editing suite. Eleven years and a million cuts later, he’s back where he belongs: on the air. Now a proud JungleCat Radio voice, JJ brings decades of experience and a healthy supply of sarcasm. Off-air, he’s running, parenting, and attempting to avoid mischief results may vary.
