Clever, Idealistic, and Bold--Meet Max from the “Max, Shannon and Porkchop” morning show at Tucson’s KiiM-FM 99.5.

The ability to tell stories that you can actually see, and feel like your best friend is telling them to you, is a gift that he offer's to listeners. His anecdotes and personable nature have centered him as a foundation at KiiM-FM’s Morning Show for double digit years! If you're having fun in the morning, chances are you are listening to Max, Shannon and Porkchop on KiiM-FM 99.5!
