L.A. Radio Host Don Amiche Bets on Himself After KJLH Departure
Posted on: 2018/09/02, by : Sharreace E. BaldwinIn August 2018, it was announced on the Los Angeles radio station, 102.3 FM KJLH, that longtime radio host, Don Amiche, would not be returning to the “Mac and Amiche” show.
In this day and age, it is quite an accomplishment to sustain in the corporate environment (even radio broadcasting) while being a creative and doing something you love. Nine years at KJLH, then leaving that stability abruptly, while quickly and simultaneously connecting with an audience online – on his own terms – is quite an incredible feat and one that should be celebrated.
I sought an interview with Don Amiche, to highlight his commitment to himself, personal values and faith/confidence in his craft. I wanted to acknowledge his personal perseverance and publish something inspiring and motivating to our primary audience of emerging artists, budding entrepreneurs, DIY business owners and the parents who support them.
In this exclusive audio clip, Don Amiche answers these three questions:
- In addition to the outpour of love you mentioned, what has been your greatest, most recent happy discovery?
- What is essential to a resilient comeback after a career change?
- How do you further plan to use social media to build your audience and career?
Wishing him well on his media journey. Catch What You Missed with Don Amiche on Facebook.

I have to admit that I was disappointed and stunned to have learned that Mr. Amiche wouldn’t be returning!
Mr. Amiche was a very positive and vital force of that particular Show, and has been missed, will be missed for a long time.
Sincerely appreciated his contribution, and necessary balance that he brought to the Show.
Also, he was a community oriented individual, whose focus on the needs of the community was appreciated as well.
Hopefully, Mr. Wonder will reconsider.
Wow!
I often wondered what happened to Mr. Amache, he and Tami were so great together, I am grateful that he was able to quickly bounce back on his feet.
Much success to you moving forward.
