Since 2014 I've produced The Chad Hasty Show on KFYO. I also help out with Pratt on Texas, KFYO Mornings, and high school sports on Talk 1340. In 2010, I completed a 29-year career as an air traffic controller, 25 of those years with the FAA, and four years with the United States Air Force. I'm a West Texas native, am married with two children, and have been a professional photographer for many years. I love the outdoors and the night sky, shooting, reading, music, and spicy food. As a long time talk-radio listener, I enjoy being in the thick of things at KFYO.
