Scott Cox

Scott Cox currently delivers his unique and witty style of talk on Kern Radio, News Talk 1180 weekday mornings from 8:00 to 10:00.  He also makes all kinds of appearances throughout Kern County on behalf of the station and various causes.  Scott is an obscenely popular local talk host and pillar of the community. He has been in the radio business for 10 years now, and shows no signs of slowing.

Cox began his career in Mammoth Lakes, CA, where he developed a tolerance for Heineken and snow. He remains a world-class skier to this day. After studying the cowbell at Julliard, he returned to Bakersfield, where he excelled at a number of "real" jobs. You name it, he's done it. And well, during this time Scott also amassed amazingly impressive records in auto and motorcycle racing. In addition to his radio show, Scott also writes for the Bakersfield Californian.

Scott lives in East Bakersfield with his wife and two excellent children. His daughter Katie is the better of the two.  He spends his meager spare time hanging out with his family (which includes his 3 dogs), enjoying live music, and thinking of clever things to say.
