After a successful career on the music side, Mac Watson made the transition to talk radio — two months before 9/11. 

Since then, Mac has become a master communicator and story teller.  Relatable and entertaining, Mac creates compelling content with emotional connections on numerous media platforms. His sharp wit and humor has made him a guest favorite.  With a “firm but fair” approach, Mac doesn’t shy away from asking “tough questions.” HE doesn’t badger, hammer or ask the “gotcha” questions. His natural comedic timing has resulted in invitations to appear on stage with comedian Adam Corolla and actor Patrick Warburton.

Community involvement is paramount to Mac because he truly believes the mantra you have to give and give selflessly everyday. He’s emceed events for the ALS Association of Arizona, Soroptimist, Child Crisis Arizona, the Arizona Irish Cultural Center, 100 Club of Arizona, the Greater Phoenix Chamber, Arizona Helping Hands, and Mayday Pit Bull Rescue.

Because he was raised in the country, Mac loves growing tomatoes, corn and pumpkins in his extensive gardens and enjoys making his own compost.  

As a recovering English major, Mac has edited 3 books and always has stack of books next to his favorite chair. 

Mac lives in Phoenix with his wife, daughter, son, and a rescued pit bull. His podcast Mac Watson Talks explores current events through emotional connections, real-life experiences, and humor. New episodes are uploaded Tuesday and Friday.
