10 Questions with ... John Magic1. What got you into radio?
I don't know why exactly, but I vividly remember impersonating radio DJs when I was younger. Then hearing DJ Icy Ice and DJ E Man on the radio, and finding out they were Filipino like me, made me want to be in this industry even more.
2. What did you dream of becoming when you were a kid?
A stuntman! I was in awe when I watched the cowboy stunt show at Knott's Berry Farm and the A-Team stunt show at Universal Studios in the 80s.
3. On the surface, what's the biggest difference between living/working in Fresno and living/working in the Inland Empire?
Not that much of a difference, to be honest. Each has its positives and negatives. If I had to pick something though, it would be the cost of living. I'm ballin' in Fresno (not really, I work in radio for goodness sake).
