(I)NTERVIEW: Damon Scott

CPBN Media Lab

 
Damon Scott hosts a morning show-style afternoon radio program on 96.5 TIC-FM.  Originally from Hoisington, Kansas, he settled down in Essex, CT.  His ongoing success as the afternoon radio personality on 96.5 has opened the door for many more opportunities.  He owns his own creative services business, providing voiceover services for clients like Madison Square Garden.  He was also the first person to ever introduce a group at the Meadows, now called the Comcast Theater, and has since continued introducing bands and performers on a regular basis.  In addition to that he hosts a comedy show at the Bushnell called Ha! Ha! Hartford!  He has also been the master of ceremonies for the CT Whale home games since their creation.
 
In addition to being a radio personality he also has a strong passion for charity.  He believes charity is an important way to keep the balance in your life by giving back.  His things are "kids, cancer, canines and cats: anything that can't protect itself."  He spends time both on air and in his personal life promoting his favorite charities. 
 
Above all else, Damon loves making people laugh.  This became clear very quickly during our interview.  As the industry changes and the media becomes increasingly negative, Damon likes being that guy who can give a departure from that.   He loves being the guy who doesn't have to take everything so seriously.
