He started the show to give upcoming artists a platform to be heard and to give his unique perspective on current events, engage in shenanigans, and show the world how much of a mental ninja he (thinks he) is. Epic also loves long walks on the beach, hates dolphins (because they rape), and has the worst Bill Cosby impression in the history of impressions.
Ashley Garsky
Co-Host and one of the main writers of the show, Ashley Garsky was Ms. America in 2004, loves animals, kids, and the color purple. (not the movie. The actual color.) She is classy as hell except when she talks. She uses the word "fuck" like a drunk toddler and plans to go on a chocolate only diet. Oh, and she is married to Epic...for now.

Rachel Nyquist
Rachel is a former model and entertainer. She is currently The Epic Radio Show's Social Media Coordinator and owner of RLOVENME earrings. She is a mother of 3. Rachel loves glitter and applies it to pretty much everything. So much, in fact, that you could literally go blind by looking at her in the right sunlight. She loves leopard print like it's 1964 and will talk to you like she's known you for 20 years, even if it's only been 2.3 minutes.
