It’s been way too long and I have to start being more consistent with my writings.
Usually I have to be inspired by something to write about. There have been a lot of inspirations lately but then they are fleeting before I know it and I never write about it.
But today I am back: A lot has gone on but I will focus on the most important one. May 1st, 2015, I became and Internet Radio Station owner. Myself and my two radio partners from my show, Vegas Unwrapped, joined forces and purchased VEGAS ALL NET RADIO.
One of the most amazing things is that we purchased the station from a rather big radio company that owns stations all over the South Western US. It has always been a dream of mine. When Vegas Unwrapped started nearly 7 years ago, I told Ricky Cash that there has to be end to justify the means when it comes to hosting our own show. I wanted to be in control of every facet of our business and not rely on the procedures and rules of the station we aired on.
Then we met a guy by the name of John P.G. Stiles (JPeg) over a year ago when we Ricky & I were guests on another radio show. John handled the video taping of the show we guested on. We asked him to film a Vegas Unwrapped episode and see what that did for our show. You can check out all the videos at www.youtbe.com/unwrapped2010 if you want a peak behind the wizard’s curtain. You can also see the videos of many of our different shows by going to https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCniowhQoXCe3OwWPcFDBGjw/featured?view_as=subscriber
John saw our vision about owning our own station and our desire to give back to the communities that our listeners are in.
Everything came together on May 1st. There were 23 shows on the roster at that time and I am please to report that as of this writing we have 51 shows on the air. Simply click on the station logo above and it will take you to our station website and then click on the “Programs” tab to see the lineup.
We offer a little bit of everything, Sports, Entertainment, Education, Veteran Programming, Health, Life Coaching, Holistic Modalities, Music and so much more.
We will be adding LIVE Streaming within a couple of months and eventually Internet Television.
I am proud of what we have accomplished but we have a long way to go. If you ever thought of hosting your own radio show, we can train you to do that. If you would like to advertise on our station I have programs that average around $5/spot. That is a price that is very hard to find elsewhere. BY 2017 research is trending that advertising dollars on Internet radio will surpass the revenues of television advertising dollars. http://rss.securenetsystems.net/index.cfm?page=Growth_Charts
Internet radio is here to stay and will continue to grown to levels that I don’t think others have even thought about.
Don’t be left behind standing on the platform as the train passes you by.
Until next time……

Once again time flies by and it is has been 3 months since my last posting. If nothing else, I should be doing this weekly at least sharing the news as to who the guests are for that week’s show.
Nonetheless, here is a recap of all that has gone on since April 1st when we moved to our new station:
BANNER OF INFORMATION
VEGAS UNWRAPPED can be heard every Thursday night from 7-9PM PST on wwwvegasallnetradio.com.
VEGAS UNWRAPPED can be heard on the first Thursday of every month from 9-10 PM PST on http://www.klav1230am.com.
Our archives/podcasts can now be heard on our show page on http://www.vegasallnetradio.com. http://www.aircheck.us and within a week on http://www.thecityfm.com. We are grateful that more stations want to hear our show.
We also produce the newly launched show POOLE PARTY: A SOIREE OF MADNESS which airs on Tuesday nights from 7-8PM PST as well as THE WARZONE, also on Tuesday nights from 8-9 PM PST. Both shows air on http://www.vegasallnetradio.com.
We have taken on representing talent. We are pleased to represent PAIGE POOLE: THE TRUE ELVIS TRIBUTE ARTIST. You can Google “PAIGE POOLE” and much of his work can be seen there. If you are in need of his services, you can contact me at vegasunwrapped@gmail.com.
My radio partner Ricky Cash & I co-hosted a the MISS NEVADA UNITED STATES BEAUTY PAGEANT on May 26th on the Internet. I think it was he first time a beauty pageant was simulcast on YouTube. You can check it out on our YouTube channel, VEGAS UNWRAPPED.
Two weeks later we were the emcees, on stage, for the MRS. NEVADA PAGEANT. We had a blast at these pageants and we have been offered the opportunity to do it again next year for both pageants.. As of this writing Cash & I will be hosting a model search show being put on by the MISS NEVADA UNITED STATES organization. It is a fundraiser for the organization and we are only too happy to help.
We recently signed on with a Marketing/PR firm called GYS ENTERTAINMENT, LLC to help market and promote Vegas Unwrapped Productions, Aaron Phillips & Ricky Cash.
Along with my Vegas Unwrapped responsibilities I have also been expanding my radio schedule as I continue to be contacted to co-host other shows.
Wednesday mornings I can be found on THE CHI-TO-BE RADIO EXPERIENCE from 9-9:30 AM with host Stacey Hall. This show can be found on http://www.talkshoe.com.
Friday mornings, I record a podcast called THE FRANCHISE RADIO NETWORK which can be found on http://www.thecityfm.com
Lastly, I co-host “SUNDAY CHAT” from 3-4PM PST, on Sundays of course, in the beautiful Greenspun Communications Building. The show can be heard LIVE at http://www.rebcast.com or on archive at http://www.aircheck.us.
Wow, I just got tired looking at that schedule.
One thing we have worked very at is “grass-roots” promotions. This year has been the year of public appearances. For instance, I hosted a poker tournament fundraiser for a non-profit organization at The Green Valley Ranch Casino here in Las Vegas. (I did get to meet Randy Couture!) 
This has been a major step in having our LOCAL listenership grow by way of Internet Radio.

July 4th is just one week away as I write this. Be safe and enjoy the holiday for what it represents.
Until next time……
