The Life and Times of Jake McBride


I was born a fat white child in the hills of Virginia....and everything has changed...
well, almost everything...I am still white. I have been doing radio for nearly 17 years,
and I can honestly say that it has been a rewarding career choice.....

The radio deal started in Anniston Alabama at a small...and I mean small Southern Gospel 
station....blasting all of 5,000 watts...we were a powerhouse! I then made the leap to Alabama 100
...a HUGE and I mean HUGE country station in the metropolis of Anniston, Alabama......as a matter
 of fact by the time I left that station I had moved all the way to GENERAL MANAGER....
but I was the only one there ....so I was the Morning Show guy and the janitor!!

I moved to Kix Country in the spring of 2001 and fell in love with the area....the history...the people....
the activities all convinced me that I had found my new home.....face it, living in Alabama among Crimson 
Tide fans was more like a sentence for a bad crime....leaving that "neck of the woods" was a pleasure.
I soon feel in love with Kix Country!

Speaking of being in love.....allow me to introduce you to the family....


Cydnee and Halee are on the front row....Macie, Kadie and Melina
Behind the scenes

3. Do you guys really live here in North West Arkansas?

Believe it or not we do....Woody lives in Elkins and I reside in Prairie Grove.

This is the view that I have for nearly six hours everyday.....How lucky am I ?? Does anyone automatically think "Home Improvement"?



And here is what he sees.....please note the look of disgust.....



Andrea truly deserves a Medal for her courage and patience!!!
Odds and Ends....Things that you may not have known
  • I traveled the southeastern United States for several years wholesaling ladies shoes!
  • I was a buyer of mens and boys clothing as well as mens and ladies, and childrens shoes for Belk, I actually bought for TWO stores in Savannah, Georgia for a year or so prior to going on the road.....
  • I sang in a gospel quartet...actually three quartets for a total of almost 10 years....
  • In between radio stints I ran a southern gospel music recording studio that was the recording home of Gold City !!
Jake off the air....

As much as I love doing what I do....I also enjoy family time.....and you can see why !!!
