For co-host and Hollywood Casting Director, Pixie Monroe, raising awareness for worthy charities was a family affair. Her parents were initially approached by actor/comedian Danny Thomas over fifty years ago when he shared his dream of creating a research hospital for children suffering from cancer and other devastating diseases. After hearing his heartfelt plea, the entire family set out to help raise the necessary funds to develop, build and sustain what would later become Memphis, Tennesee’s St. Jude Children's Research Hospital. Since then, Pixie has reached out to other organizations as well, giving back to the communities that have brought her success and happiness.

Pixie is an active member of the Academy of Television Arts and Sciences, maintains a board position with the Association of Women In Radio and Television, Southern California Chapter and is strongly-involved with the Entertainment Industries Council (PRISM AWARDS).


Co-host Gary Spears has been working in radio since high school, and has been on the air in locales across America, from Ohio to New York, Washington, D.C. to New Orleans. His final move brought him to Los Angeles, where he spent over seven years at the legendary KIIS-FM. In addition to his on-air duties, Gary became involved with local and national charities, attending events and benefits including the Jerry Lewis Telethon which he co-hosted.

Ever since a close friend passed away at the age of nine from Leukemia, Gary has been an advocate for research into chronic illnesses, especially those that target children. After hearing from Pixie regarding the possibility of creating internet broadcasts with a focus on charitable groups, Gary pledged his talents and support to champion this very worthy cause.
