Calgary FM Blogs > Beesley

Beesley was born and raised in Kamloops, a place famous for fishing, skiing, hot summer nights and turning the city name backwards and calling it a celebration (Spoolmak Days)! Married to Mrs. Beesley, they boast a daughter: Darcy, and a son: Dylan. Beesley’s many interests include music, movies and memorabilia (known to some as “junk collecting”). The hottest job he’s ever had? Working in a copper mine as a ‘smelter rat’ (don’t ask). The coolest? Being the Calgary Flames Public Announcer! Beesley’s first real radio job was at Canadian Armed Forces Base: Baden Baden in West Germany as a volunteer on the all-night shift. Wow! Since then his voice has been a staple of the Calgary airwaves for the past 20 years.
