Born and raised in Penticton, Brian moved to Calgary to earn his radio and TV broadcasting diploma at Mount Royal University.
The training allowed him to combine his two passions – radio and being a disc jockey at everything from weddings and special events to high school dances and nightclubs.
Since moving back to the Okanagan six years ago, B Mack’s radio career has taken off.
He hosted the B.C. at Night, a syndicated radio show from 7 p.m. to midnight for three years before doing a short stint on afternoons and then becoming a co-host on the most-listened-to and coveted morning show.
The show has really gained momentum, especially in the past three years as he has been co-hosting the morning show.
Passionate about his current home of Kelowna, BC you can often find Brian serving as MC at many community events and causes.
In his spare time, B Mack is an avid golfer and likes to hang out in his backyard with his wife and their two pugs and Chihuahua.
