I'm Dave Williams.

After many years of doing news/talk radio I'm ready to stretch out to long-form conversation.

Podcasting is still young and developing. Some of the experts say radio people are no good at it because we sound plastic, too slick. I take that to mean I should sound less professional. Heck, I can do that.

These same experts say a podcast has to be very narrowly focused on a particular subject to gain a following.

Tell that to Joe Rogan.

I'm interested in lots of things, in people and subjects beyond number and description. Aren't you? Sure you are. Hope you like what I offer and will tell your friends.

Email me: dave@conversations.buzz

You can hear my Dallas morning radio show with my partner, Amy Chodroff, at KLIF.com 5-9 a.m. central time.

Jack Swanson is a superstar of news and talk radio. He has been a primary architect of the spoken word formats around the world. Radio towers may vanish but the desire for information and entertainment through new communications platforms has Jack excited. He says he wishes he could live another 50 years to see what comes next. We all hope he does.
