Congratulations. Well deserved. Cat Country is the only local radio station I listen too, in part to the morning show. I seriously switch from Sirius to listen to 98.7 Cat Pak Morning Show!
Congratulations Brent and Mel!! You both are awesome indeed. I’m reminded of how well you kept us informed when Hurricane Sally hit Pensacola. Thank you and we appreciate what you do for Pensacola and the surrounding area.
Congratulations Brent and Mel
