This week we meet Navy veteran John Gully, who went from Navy ships and sonar frequencies to a career behind the mic on radio frequencies.

Today he’s the Evening News Anchor for Prescott Tonight on News Talk Radio 103.5 FM in Prescott, AZ, but broadcasting was not his original plan.

Gully shared memories of his days aboard ship and what it was like being a Sailor during the Cold War era … and any dangerous encounters with Russians?

Gully revealed how after the Navy an impromptu attempt on the mic landed him a DJ shift at local radio station in San Diego. We discussed his career, how radio has evolved and why the owners dominating today’s media landscape have strayed from what originally made radio so popular.

We also discussed his latest project, Warrior Voices Radio, and Internet radio station designed exclusively for the veteran community. Gully shares how he and their veteran team are unafraid to break radio format rules, play whatever they want (over 3K songs in the library) and how they can help their fellow veterans host their own radio show or create a podcast.

Gully expressed how being on the radio took him on the journey of a lifetime, and how Warrior Voices Radio is there to help our fellow vets launch their own journey too.
