John Butler

Kalahari Resorts & Conventions
Round Rock, TX

John Butler is the President of Butler7media, with studios in Dallas, Mineola, and Canton. KMOO-FM and KWJB-AM-FM are celebrating 60 years of serving East Texas.

Starting at the age of 15, he worked in a television and radio newsroom and also served as a popular DJ where he tested his creative flair by producing two prime-time documentaries and hosting a weekly radio interview show.

John knows something about radio promotion.

As a DJ at the legendary KLIF in Dallas, John took part in what was billed by Gordon McLendon as the “largest radio promotion ever in radio.” John was the DJ from KLIF in a bicycle race across Texas with the #1 DJs from Houston and San Antonio. They started at the Alamo, raced to downtown Dallas, then on to Herman Park in Houston. Fans followed the race as it was covered on the three stations.

John graduated from the University of Texas with honors and holds a Master’s Degree from SMU.

He is on the Texas Association of Broadcasters Board and is the past president of the Golden Mic Club.

John has a new book scheduled for release later this year, based on a road trip he took in search of America. (Spoiler alert: he found it.)

With a career spanning 26 years in radio, Erin Wilde has become a familiar and beloved voice in the Fort Worth area, where she’s spent the last decade lighting up the airwaves. Beyond the mic, Erin’s talents extend to television and film—most recently appearing in “God’s Here”, now streaming online.

Erin’s passion for broadcasting is matched only by her commitment to giving back. She’s deeply rooted in her community and driven by a desire to make a positive impact in people’s lives. A proud mother and joyful new grandmother—twice over in one year!—Erin holds family at the center of all she does.

In a career full of memorable moments, Erin is particularly proud of her late son Trey Cordie, a gifted program director and radio personality. Though he’s no longer with us, his legacy continues through her work and the love she shares with her audience and community.

When she’s not behind a microphone, you’ll find Erin living life to the fullest—staying active, embracing wellness, and even reviving her days as a professional cheerleader with the occasional TikTok dance. She’s also a three-time blue ribbon champion of the celebrity goat milking contest at the Fort Worth Stock Show and Rodeo—because why not?

Erin brings energy, authenticity, and heart to everything she does—and she never misses a chance to say, “How ‘bout them Cowboys?!”
