Your Pal Al

Your Pal, Al is the unpredictable, unapologetically off-the-cuff podcast you didn't know you needed. Hosted by Alan Knight, radio veteran, storyteller, and certified "insanity whisperer," this show is part therapy session, part time capsule, and all heart.With over six decades of stories (and counting), Al brings you a whirlwind ride of laughter, loss, ridiculous moments, and real talk. From the absurd to the emotional, nothing's rehearsed and nothing's off-limits. One minute he's stretching a two-minute story into a full-blown monologue masterpiece; the next, he's reminding you that your problems might not be so bad after all. Expect spontaneous contests (like a cash prize for the best logo idea...no, seriously), surprise guests (including his 89-year-old mother, if he can book her), and a rotating cast of callers dialing into the Your Pal, Al hotline: (954) 294-0774. Got a story, an opinion, or just want to hear yourself on air? Al's your guy. It's nostalgic but refreshing, heartfelt

    The Longest Promo in Podcasting History - What the Florida???

    Your Pal Al is Yesterday's news!! Welcome to the show nobody asked for but everybody needed.

From pirate women kayaking through mall fountains to Guy Fieri's Singer Island address, Florida never disappoints — and neither do these two.Along the way, expect runaway earrings, a spirited debate about lingerie, Cheeto-related games of chance, a dating site concept exclusively for Florida's finest unhinged singles, and more chemistry than a high school lab explosion.If this promo is any indication, the actual show is going to be absolutely unhinged — and completely unmissable.📞 Got questions, comments, or complaints?

    Ep. 5 - Where Did We Lose It?

    Al's back for episode five and he's got a lot on his mind. This week he's sounding off on the slow disappearance of mutual respect in America — from people who can't put down their shrimp long enough for the national anthem, to friends who are too afraid to disagree on politics without ending the friendship. A call from fellow podcaster Richard Marks of Mixed Nuts Nation turns into a lively debate on civility, generational decline, and whether we've all just lost the plot. Then Al does something no podcast has ever done quite like this — he calls his 89-year-old mom live on air just to see what she had for dinner and lock in Sunday bagels and lox. Equal parts rant, philosophy, and genuine heart, episode five is Al at his most Al. Leave him a message, suggest a topic, or volunteer to be a guest: 954-294-0774.

    Ep. 4 - Radio Days, Real Talk, and Riding the Wave

    Al Knight is joined in studio by South Florida radio legend Trish Murray for an unplanned, unfiltered reunion that feels like no time has passed at all. They dive into their shared history at Sunny 104.3, get a surprise call from award-winning program director Les Jacoby, and riff on everything from the death of mainstream media to psychic readings in a Ford Explorer. Plus: regenerative medicine, Kid Rock's abs, a live call to Al's 89-year-old mom, and a heartfelt case for why podcasting is the new radio. Broadcasting live from South Florida — where stop signs are just suggestions.

    Ep. 3 - Issues, Tissues & The State of the Union

    Al flies solo this episode, and his brain is running at full speed. Starting with a simple conversation about whether friends can disagree on politics without destroying the friendship, Al spirals — in the best way — through patriotism, the Pledge of Allegiance, the State of the Union, people eating shrimp during the national anthem at a Florida Panthers game, and the college students who gave their opinions on a presidential address the day before it happened.Midway through, he gets a surprise call-in from Richard Marks of the Mixed Nuts Nation podcast, who opens with a joke so bad his own wife told him not to use it. They manage to find some common ground on civility, the greatest generation, and what gets lost when trust stops passing between generations.Al also tackles honesty, lies, broken hearts, the superpower he actually wants (hint: it's not flying), and the story of a little girl who prayed for a bicycle and got the most unexpectedly wise answer of all time.And yes — he calls his mom. Fish, okra, salad, and ice cream. Sunday plans for bagels and lox. The usual. The irreplaceable.More questions than answers, more heart than he'll admit.

    Ep. 2 - Radio Days with Trish Murray

    Al Knight is joined in studio by a familiar voice from South Florida radio royalty — Trish Murray, longtime air personality at Sunny 104.3, News Channel 5, and now owner of both a real estate company and a regenerative medicine practice. The two pick up right where they left off decades ago, like no time has passed at all.In this episode, Al and Trish reminisce about the golden age of broadcast radio in West Palm Beach, the late-night love song shows, and the wild personalities that made it all work — including a surprise phone call from their legendary former program director, Les Jacoby, who was named PD of the Year in the country. They debate the two-gender dropdown box at the doctor's office, marvel at RFK Jr.'s abs, and get surprisingly deep on why podcasting — not mainstream media — is where real conversations are happening now.Trish drops some astrology wisdom about a once-in-250-years planetary alignment, opens up about a 15-year relationship that went down in flames, and somehow still manages to end the whole thing on a positive note. Al, as always, calls his mom.Two radio dinosaurs. Zero filters. One very good time.

    Ep. 1 - Movie Theaters, Memories, and Mom

    Al Knight kicks off his very first episode of Your Pal Al with the kind of rambling, heartfelt honesty that'll make you feel like you've known him for years. A 62-year-old South Florida radio veteran with nearly four decades behind the mic, Al uses this podcast as his therapy — and yours. This week, he takes a trip down memory lane to the golden age of movie theaters: one screen, a thousand seats, sticky floors, and a tub of popcorn gone before the opening credits. He reflects on what we've lost in the age of streaming, cell phones, and 27-screen multiplexes where nothing's worth seeing.Along the way, Al shares the story of his first movie (Bedknobs and Broomsticks, 1971), riffs on stepfather Ivan the Terrible, makes the case for professional jurors, and reminds us why the small moments — like calling your 89-year-old mom while she's brushing her teeth — are the ones worth holding onto.Equal parts nostalgia, comedy, and genuine warmth, Your Pal Al is the podcast for anyone who's ever thought, "at least I'm not him" — and meant it as a compliment.
