Kimberly Owens
Weekends
Hey y’all! I was born and raised in the Midwest where the love of God, family, my dog, and cheese runs through my veins. I fell in love with country music and concerts as a young child and decided to chase the dream of Country Radio. I got my start as an intern for the morning show at WMIL FM106.1 and later on air at WKTI 94.5. When I’m not doing event promotions, I’m on air pursuing my passion here on Boss Country Radio and most likely with an iced coffee in hand...my fav! Follow my radio journey on Facebook.

Zak Taylor
Weekends
Most kids grow up with athletes, Superman or Batman as their heroes, Zak idolized Mel Blanc and Jonathan Winters - he was a little strange. He developed a bunch of characters that joined him on the air as he cut his radio teeth in the upper-left corner of America. Abandoning radio in favor of food and shelter, Zak bounced around the country working for the government (no, not the IRS) ending up on the opposite coast… in Massachusetts where he finally woke up, fell in love and became a very happy family man. Unable to break his addiction to the microphone, Zak did corporate voiceovers before becoming infected with the Boss Country bug.

A broadcasting professional for the last 20 years. He has been all country since birth. Growing up in Southeast Tennessee and meeting his wife and moving his family to Nashville. Between church, family, softball and radio. This country boy is loving life! Glad to be a part of Boss Country!
