I am the creator, lead producer and co-host of CoasterRadio.com - one of the very first podcasts ever produced. It premiered in 2005 and has run for over 15 years and over 600 episodes. The show is dedicated to fast-paced, high-energy discussion about the entire theme park experience.

Big-time celebrities, travel enthusiasts, young and old... the listeners come from all 50 states and from 35 countries around the world.

The show is introduced by film, stage, televison star (and fan of the show) Neil Patrick Harris. That's me and my co-host EB "background acting" on the CBS sitcom "How I Met Your Mother." Each episode of CoasterRadio.com includes discussion on the latest news and rumors from the theme park industry and interviews with the people making decisions at the parks. The show also features reviews and ratings of the newest rides and attractions and chances for listeners to win tickets and merchandise from parks around the country. Most importantly, the show focuses on the everyday experiences that park guests have.

Interactivity with the listeners is the heart of CoasterRadio.com. Each episode features multiple opportunities for listeners to participate in and generate show content.

The show has a large and loyal fanbase. Listeners from around the world show up when the podcast is recorded live in a park. CoasterRadio.com also hosts yearly "listener meetups" at locations around the country. These popular events are usually held at parks that have unveiled a new attraction. Public relations teams work with the podcast to promote the new ride and the event. Some stats and honors:
