Emerson's Radio Show
Emerson and writer/director Del Shores hosted The Del & Emerson Show, the number one show on the UBN Radio network for three years. Del and Emerson are both known for their politically incorrect humor and incisive commentary, and The Del & Emerson Show was designed to provoke, engage and entertain listeners on pop culture, politics, entertainment and the sordid stories that are capturing the nation’s attention each week.
The Del & Emerson Show has a strong LGBT focus and includes interviews with artists, musicians and culturally important figures as well as ongoing segments including "Flashing Through the Gay News," "Checking In With Crazy," "What's Gay in Sportsball?" and more!
