As for Ed, he’s hosted The Weekend with Ed Kalegi syndicated radio show since 2014 (www.EdKalegi.com) and has interviewed several hundred celebrities, authors, and newsmakers. He is a conversationalist at heart who grew up immersed in TV, film, and the media. As a young boy, he’d use a walkie-talkie as his own impromptu bedroom radio station and stay up late to watch Dick Cavett on a 5” black and white Sony TV with snowy reception and bad vertical hold. It’s always been in his blood. Now, he’s lucky to be able to work within what he love.
