About the Host

Ida Mae's presence at KXFM on Saturday mornings has been a mainstay since the station's beginning. Starting from my radio roots as General Manager at KOTO Telluride, to my cherished Saturday morning show at KXFM, Radio Neighboring offers an authentic, old-timey radio experience hosted by a barrel racing cowgirl from Idledo, Texas. Where else you gonna find hillbilly, bluegrass, cajun swing, and honky tonk music around these parts? Listeners call in to chat or request their favorite tunes, and local musicians get featured and promoted live on air.
My twangy playlist is carefully crafted with the understanding that y’all are joining me in your kitchens, on hikes, or cruising to Laguna Beach Farmers’ Market. I take great pride in Radio Neighboring and cherish my role at Laguna Beach Community Radio, KXFM. Recently, I was honored to be appointed to the Board of Directors by our esteemed Chairman, Billy Fried. With his capable leadership, KXFM is poised not just to survive but to thrive and shine as a beacon and gathering hub for our beloved beach town.
