NEW BEGINNINGS AT RADIO TITANS, AS
TEAM MEMBER ADAM GROPMAN WAS ONE OF THE 33 COUPLES MARRIED AT THE GRAMMYS ON
NATIONAL TELEVISION AND THE SITE ITSELF SPRINGS BACK TO LIFE BIGGER THAN EVER
FEBRUARY 3 AFTER A 5-MONTH HIATUS!
Imagine
being married with more than 28 million people watching, rapper/actress Queen
Latifah saying your vows and a combo of Macklemore &Ryan Lewis and
Madonna serving as your wedding singers. That amazing scenario happened
Sunday night for 33 couples, and one of them was Los Angeles comedian Adam
Gropman and his bride Robyn Monks.
The
happy couple rode a string of lucky breaks into the historic ceremony, where
they were featured smiling widely while holding hands before taking part in
the group vows. Gropman is also a writer for the LA Weekly, and he will be
sharing his story in an article for the New York Times shortly.
Gropman
is also a proud long time member of the podcasting site www.radiotitans.com, where he co hosted numerous episodes of the site’s late-night
comedy and music series “Pajama Party” alongside Titans founder Carl
Kozlowski and Christina Myers. Gropman will also be sharing his story from
the Grammys at 10 pm PST next Monday, Feb. 3, when he makes his final
official hosting appearance on “Party” before segueing into hosting his own
show on the site in the coming weeks.
"To get married is a big deal. To get married on the
floor of the Grammys, after Metallica jammed with Lang Lang, standing in the
aisle near Quincy Jones, Nine Inch Nails and Queens Of The Stone Age, to be
married by Queen Latifah to rapping by Macklemore and singing by Madonna and
then to shake hands with Sir Paul McCartney and high-five Ringo, that's F'ing
crazy!!” says Gropman. “Something Robyn and I will have forever. Hellofa
wedding story!”
Rising
Upright Citizens Brigade talent Anastasia Washington will be replacing
Gropman as a host of “Pajama Party,” joining Kozlowski and Myers as they
bring the beats and the funny to listeners on a weekly basis . Washington is
not the only UCB talent coming to Radio Titans, as veteran performer Jake
Friday is bringing the station a newly formed sketch team to perform an
audio-sketch show that follows in the footsteps of “The National Lampoon
Radio Hour” starting Feb. 23.
Radio
Titans was named one of the “Frontier Fifty” – the 50 most innovative
talk-radio and podcasting sites in America – by www.talkers.com, the talk-radio industry’s primary news site, last August. It
was an honor for the year-old site, as they were able to share honors with
the likes of Marc Maron and Adam Carolla, and the honor inspired them to take
a five-month hiatus and relaunch in a bigger, better format next Monday, Feb.
3.
The
site, which hosted about a dozen shows at its prior peak, will be relaunching
with 20 new and returning shows hosted by comedy veterans and hot newcomers,
including “Monkey With A Brain” by Shang, “The Best of Everything” with
Ruben Paul, a new show by Bil Dwyer and “Little Ethnic Girls” with Helen Hong
and Maria Shehata. Several more shows will be launching in time for March.
Numerous
music shows are also planned for the site, which also intends to launch a
series of live comedy and rock events across Los Angeles in the coming
months.

I'm so proud, thankful and excited about this!
For anyone who knows me, you'll understand that this -www.radiotitans.com - is the one thing in life I've been most passionate about ever, and in July when I needed to take a step back from it nothing was more heartbreaking.

Re-Invention of Radio Titans Fundraiser on indiegogo.com
Go to this link for more info and to make a donation: http://igg.me/at/radiotitansigg
Hi! I'm Carl Kozlowski, the co-founder and current CEO of Radio Titans (www.radiotitans.com), a podcasting site/Web-radio station that was launched in June 2012 after we received great write-ups in the Los Angeles Times and LA Weekly for the podcast "Grand Theft Audio." In our first year on the air as Radio Titans, we were also raved about in the Pasadena Star-News as well as the top comedy-news site Laughspin.com.
But best of all, we were named one of the 50 coolest talk-radio outlets in the country by www.talkers.com, the nation's top talk radio news site! As part of their Frontier Fifty list, we were honored alongside superstars Glenn Beck, Marc Maron and Adam Carolla as one of the best places in the country to hear great shows. Check it out here!http://www.talkers.com/2013ff/050.jpg
Our specialty was in creating hilarious comedic shows laced with insightful interviews of numerous superstars from the worlds of comedy, music, film and books. Everyone from Henry Rollins to Burt Bacharach to the creators of "Reno 911" and dozens of top comics from the hottest late-night and Comedy Central shows came through our doors, creating a treasure trove of some of the coolest interviews to be found anywhere! We also were great at breaking new talent and turning listeners on to the next generation of stars.
But when our lease came up in July and we learned about our Frontier Fifty status, I decided to take a break and plan how to make things much bigger and better. We're hoping to move into better offices in a more accessible location, set up a video camera system so you can watch our stellar guests as well as listen to them, and improve our promotions and styles of programming (including a wing of political shows that could develop into an exciting force in the 2014 and 2016 elections, plus a wave of new music shows).

We're also extending our reach by inviting those who dream of having their own show to become stars by recording with us and then using our ace marketing to make it all happen !
We also have an incredible lineup of hosting talent joining us, including comedians Shang (who has 45,000 subscribers and headlines clubs nationwide!), Ruben Paul (a national club headliner and world-tour opener for George Lopez and Russell Peters), and Brian Scolaro (cast member of four network TV sitcoms plus a ton of appearances on shows like "Conan"!) plus one of the world's top comic storytellers, Antonio Sacre, is returning! And we're also excited to feature the return of the fantastically innovative Orson Welles/"War of the Worlds" type show about the zombie apocalypse, "The Zombie Radio Show."
We will be offering a wide variety of political programming as well, from both conservative and liberal outlets. This will serve as a new platform for those looking to express their political views, but also to give candidates nationwide a way to promote themselves and discuss what they are going to accomplish.
And we'll be bringing the party back to party politics, as we launch bold new programming that will reinvent the election campaigns of 2014 and beyond!
Some of the great people who will have programs on Radio Titans..
Shang has cemented his position as one of the brightest funnymen in the business & his political and explosive humor has been showcased on HBO’s Aspen Comedy Festival Special “Best of the Fest”. Other appearances include “Politically Incorrect,”& the BBC’s Funny Business,Mun2’s Loco Comedy Jam, NBC’S Comedy Showcase, MTV’s Choose or Lose, National Lampoon’s New Faces, Comedy Central’s Jamie Foxx-presents “Laffapalooza”& was a Co-Host on Russell Simmon’s “One World Music Beat. He will bring his 45,000 weekly subscribers and massive Twitter following to the station.

Ruben’s upbringing was the foundation for his universal appeal. His undeniable charisma, and spontaneity make him a crowd favorite every where he goes. Ruben’s talents as a writer and performer have garnered him many honors including being chosen as one of the “Best of the fest Comics” at HBO’s prestigious U.S. Comedy Arts Festival. Stand up television appearances include: Comedy Central,”The Late Late Show with Craig Ferguson”, “Lopez Tonight”, Showtime Network’s Special “Russell Peters Presents”, B.E.T’s “Comic View”, and “Comics Unleashed”, just to name a few. Ruben has toured extensively and collaborated with Jamie Foxx, George Lopez, Cedric The Entertainer, and most recently Russell Peters on his record breaking “Notorious World Tour”. The “Notorious World Tour” gave him the opportunity to perform live for thousands of fans in sold out arenas, which helped Ruben broaden his own audience in the U.S. and Internationally.

Michael Rooker on Kozversations
MICHAEL ROOKER- Topping the insanity of the Henry Rollins interview, Hollywood’s most badass character actor – who’s played everyone from serial killer Henry in “Henry: Portrait of a Serial Killer” to zombie killer Merle on “The Walking Dead” – joins Koz for an hour of hilarious commentary about Koz’s poor choice of theme music, what drives the insane popularity of “Walking Dead,” a hand-pounding discourse defending the right to own guns, and much more. http://archives.radiotitans.com/Kozversations/Kozversation%20Michael%20Rooker.mp3
Henry Rollins on Kozversations
HENRY ROLLINS- Even Koz himself can’t believe this epic interview with one of the most interesting people on the planet happened, but it did. Add in the fact that he got Henry to reveal the profound influence that Ted Nugent and Bill Cosby have had on his career, as well as his thoughts on gay marriage and drone attacks, and whether he gets lonely amid all his traveling, and you’ve got one hell of a learning experience, even for longtime fans. So sit back, grab a snack and relax ’cause Henry Rollins loves to talk! http://archives.radiotitans.com/Kozversations/Kozversations%20Henry%20Rollins.mp3
