In Memoriam · 1960 – 2023
Ian Punnett was a broadcaster, author, ordained Episcopal deacon, and professor. He hosted Coast to Coast AM for over two decades.
Ian believed in me. From my beginning stages as a podcaster, he was there. He once said, "You should be hosting Coast to Coast AM, and I should be at home listening to you."
Ian started in rock radio — mornings on WKDF in Nashville, the same city I broadcast from today. He died on December 22, 2023. He was 63.
