"The Mick Rich Show" Coming In January

Mick Rich's campaign for the New Mexico U.S. Senate seat now occupied by Martin Heinrich didn't pan out the way we hoped, but it did open up a great opportunity for Mick. It is one that will benefit the citizens of New Mexico.

According to an email I received from Jim Rich of Mick Rich Contractors:

During Mick's 2018 campaign for U.S. Senate, he got to know a number of New Mexico's radio talk show hosts. But he struck a friendship with Eddy Aragon, "The Rock of Talk" and owner of KIVA radio in Albuquerque (95.9 FM / 1600 AM / online: ABQ.FM).

Beginning in early 2019, Mick will host a weekly half-hour talk radio show of his own on KIVA. "The Mick Rich Show" will discuss current issues of importance to New Mexico. Mick will offer his views, interview community leaders, and take questions from callers. 

"I've always cared deeply about our state and its people, and I've always thought a lot about how to solve our problems," Mick said.  

Tune in to Mick's show beginning in January at 1:30pm on Saturdays.

Following Ronald Reagan's losing primary campaign of 1976, Reagan went back on the radio with a program discussing the day's issues. It seems that Mick Rich is following in Ronald Reagan's footsteps.

I am not certain if the KIVA signal reaches Jamestown or Gallup, but I will try to listen in if it does.
