30 Years on the Mic: Willie B, KBPI, and the Wild Era of Denver Radio

Willie B from 107.9 KBPI sits down with WIGNZ for an unfiltered, hilarious, and unexpectedly powerful conversation about 30+ years in Denver radio.

From growing up on a Kentucky dairy farm to becoming one of the most recognizable voices on Colorado airwaves, Willie shares the stories that built his legacy — the wild 90s radio era, listener-driven chaos, dial changes, Guinness World Record attempts, and the real bond behind what he calls the “BPI family.”

But this isn’t just radio war stories.

We dive into Cars for Christmas and the Willie B Foundation, where he and his crew refurbish and gift vehicles to people who desperately need reliable transportation. You’ll hear how one radio stunt turned into decades of impact — and why Willie believes effort beats everything.

If you grew up on KBPI, love Denver culture, care about local radio, or just want to hear how longevity is actually built, this episode delivers.
