Way back in the late 60's, in a small little Kentucky town, I came screaming into this world. My mom, a Southern Belle housewife, and my dad, a farmer, bar owner, janitor, banjo picker, had finally had enough kids. I was the last of four and, believe me, I think I was the reason they didn't want anymore!

I grew up in an even smaller town in Kentucky, with not much to do there but plug my ears while my dad tried to pick his banjo and run through the sprinklers on a hot summer's day.

I was Daddy's Little Girl. Even though I hated that banjo, I loved my dad. The hardest thing I ever went through in my life was the death of my dad. That was 1983, when I was only fifteen. Too much for a young girl to take!

I left Kentucky, my family, my friends and my life behind and moved hundreds of miles cross-country to be with my oldest sister, Connie (my role model, best friend and confidante), and her husband. I finished school and, purely by accident, I got into Country radio.

  • Military Shout Out
    Hi, my name is Vanessa Howell and I'm from Spring, TX. I just wanted to give a shout out to my best friend who is now in the Marine Corps. His name is Edward James and I just wanted him to know that I'm proud of him and I cannot wait till he comes home. Thanks.

    P.S. I tried to call it in 43 times, but it never went through.
  • Dear John
    Lia,
    I've been listening to you for a couple of years now, and I know how much you help out the brothers and sisters in uniform. I'm currently stationed in Arizona, and this past week has been one of the worst. I received a phone call from my fiance saying we were done. It's driven me absolutely insane, but what can I do. She is my heart and world, I want her to be happy. Could you please play for me Every light in the house is on. It would mean so much, and hopefully if she's listening she will understand what she means to me.
  • my uncle
    Dear Lia-- my name is rachel and im 17 years old from kingwood texas...i couldnt figure out how to send this to you but i really would like to share some things about my uncle with you. Well first of all he was there when i was born, then we lived together till i was around 6 or 7 then my mom and i moved out and Julian (my uncle) started well getting into some trouble. we moved to texas about 7 years ago and he flew out here and decided her wanted to go back into the army not only to help others because thats what he loves but to help himself. He was accepted and a few monthes later he was stationed in Alaska until further notice. a few months later we got a call that said Julian would b deployed to Iraq within the next month. i was definatly scared and i dont know flustered but he went and did an amazing job. he got honored for his work he came back "home" to texas just a few monthes ago and then go sent back to Alaska where he will be based there for another year, and possibly deployed again. i just want you to play hurry home by Jason Caroll oh and i love him so so so so much and misss him like i dont even know!!! please lia!!!! thanks

Would you please play I Wanna Make You Close Your Eye's from Anthony. Thank You so much if you can.

  • the love of my life
    I would like to dedicate a song to my fiance- David. He is the most wonderful man I have ever met. We dated 25 years ago and at that time he asked me to marry him. I said we were too young and thru a series of event preciptated by parents.. we went our separate ways. needless to say many years and divorces later we have found each other again and picked up just like we were never separated. It has been wonderful. We are planning to get married Oct 25th and the song that fits us best is "Broken Road". If you would kindly play this song dedicated to David Bell i would appreciate it. Thanks Debra

  • my fiance
    lia i love your show. i want to dedicate a song to my fiance. he is the most wonderfull man iv ever met. the funny thing is that i dated him in high school and i cheated on him but he didnt break up with me witch made me break up with him for not standing up for him self. well i found him last year and he helped get the job that i had applyed for and shortly after we started dating again, we'ev had a lot of road blocks but we get passed them together. and i have a baby with the person i left him for but he doesnt treat her any differant, in fact he takes more care and thinks about her more then her own father does. i always regreted what i did to him he was and still is the best man iv ever met i am so thankfull that god gave me a second chance to make things right.He doesnt speak alot of english but he knows all the words to "when the stars go blue" from tim macgraw and thats the song i want to dedicate to him tonight.

  • The "Choking Game"
    Lia, I have so much respect for your radio program and for you as a host. You always put your heart out there and always give God the glory! I am hoping that I can tell you about a terrible "activity" which is affecting many of our young people today! It is called the "Choking Game", "Pass Out Game", "Fainting Game" and called many other names. It is an activity that kills! It kills brain cells and if played alone, it most often kills the one "playing". On 12/27/08, we lost our bright, beautiful, 17 y.o. daughter, Jennifer, to this "game". She was NOT a risk-taker and we feel dhr esd likely doing it as a result of peer pressure. It is now my mission to educate others. We are going to schools to educate students, parents and educators. We are working with clergy, youth groups, service organizations, etc. This is our way of taking Jenny with us into the future. We have set up a web page for Jenny, which has information about her, about the game and various media clips and articles, related to her death and our cause. It is www.jennymorgan.org Please read about the "game" and then tell everyone you know about this! Have a blessed week! If I can answer any questions for you, my e-mail is vickiem1@comcast.net

  • Just Hello
    Just wanted you to know good things come out of Kentucky. I have always been a fan of country, I was born in a little town in Tennessee, moved to Kentucky when I was in the 3rd grade, then to Texas when I was in 10th grade. Joined the Navy when I graduated and left to see the world, but became a Nuclear Missle Tech on a submarine and didn't see much being underwater all the time. I know you support our men and women in the military and so do I. They are the true heroes in this world because they go were they are told and do it without question and so people in the states don't have to worry about waking up to bombings and such.
  • I LOVE YOUR SHOW AND I LOVE LISTENING TO YOU AT NIGHT =]
