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.
