Hi, it’s Jim Carey from the Cash and Carey Most Music Morning Show and I’m proud to say I’ve been around the world and haven’t made it back yet! I was an Army brat and we moved 7 times by the time I was in 7th grade. The greatest lesson I learned from moving was I needed to be confident in who I was and always open to meeting new people . That’s why I’m excited to move to Tulsa . I figure there are a few hundred thousand people here I can meet.
I love my kids, Alex and Abby, 
and God blessed them with a great Mother (not to mention an awesome Wife!). Tracey and I met while working in Columbus, OH. You know how they say, never date anyone at work because it can turn out bad? Well, I figured I’d better marry Tracey before things had a chance to go downhill. We’ve been married 14 years and have two wonderful kids. FYI...they’re twins. Now, having said all these wonderful things about my wife and kids I have to be honest...the glue that really holds my family together is my dog, Casey. She’s a 10 year old American Fox Hound, 100% All American Mutt! Her greatest trick, and only trick, is she can sing along with Garth Brooks, Friends in Low Places. Unlike Kelley Cash, I don’t have a house full of animals. I find a dog is perfect...besides, the bed would get way to crowded if I kicked my animal ownership up to Kelley’s level.
A few accomplishments I’m proud of...being a youth group leader...raising $1.5 million for the Children’s Miracle Network...and becoming a school bus driver. 
I was unemployed for 11 months and decided I needed to do something other then collect government checks. So I applied to be a school bus driver! I was known as the “Cool Bus Driver”. I never drove the same route twice because I was a substitute driver. Everyday there would always be a driver who’d called in sick or had an appointment. So everyday I was handed a sheet of directions and told to go pick up or drop off a bus load of kids. Honestly, I was scared to death, but after I got the hang of it I was pretty darn good. And after close to 20 years of doing radio I had to push myself to learn and excel at a new skill. Outside of radio, this was the first new skill I learned since college. I’m proud of what I did. Proud of not only learning something new, but standing up and being a Man for my family when they needed it. That’s a good feeling and I’m glad God gave me the challenge.

- Hi Jim,
I listen to you and Kelly on my way to work every morning. Some of the things you say on there makes me laugh but also makes my morning seem to go better. Keep up the good work. Kelly is awesome. I met her few years ago seem to be a real sweetheart and down to earth. I don't listen to any other radio station except k95 - Height differenceHi Jim
I listen to you and Kelly every day. You guy's are wonderful. This morning ( 10-05-2009 ) You had made a coment about you not being able to be married to a 5'2 redhead because your too tall. Well I have a laugh for ya. I'm a 4'8 redhead and my husband of 14yrs is 6'2. You definitely need a sence of humor when there is that much of a height difference. Have a great day and I will be tunning you and Kelly in tomarrow morning. - your favorite Great Clips stylist ;)hopin to see you again and the vacation went well! After you came into he salon the girls all asked if we cold change our station to yours and we've had a ton of great feedback from customers! i was glad i got to meet you in person and cut your hair! see you around!
- WELCOMEJIM, WELCOME TO TULSA, YOU CAME TO THE BEST STATION AND YOU HAVE THE BEST PARTNER. ALTHOUGH I HAVEN'T EVER MET KELLY, I'VE LISTENED TO K95 EVER SINCE SHE CAME TO IT AND SHE IS A SWEETHEART. I WAS SOMEWHAT DISAPOINTED WHEN TOM LEFT, BUT YOUR DOING AN OUTSTANDING JOB AND EVERYTHING HAPPENS FOR A REASON. I KNOW BECAUSE GOD WAS KIND ENOUGH TO GIVE ME A NEW LIVER A YEAR AGO LAST CHRISTMAS. I THANK HIM EVERY DAY FOR EVERY DAY. KEEP UP THE GOOD WORK AND TELL KELLY I SAID HI. MAYBE I'LL GET TO MEET BOTH OF YOU SOME DAY. THANKS, DANNY
- Welcome!Hi Jim! I must say I was surprised when I didn't hear the same male voice a while back, but I have to say you're a wonderful breath of intelligent fresh air. I love your quick whit and the nice things you say about Tulsa (I'm from N.Y.)and love it here too. You're a wonderful addition to Kelley and I love listening to you. Good luck and I hope you love Tulsa and that your family is happy to be here too. You seem like a great guy! Take care.

- Glad you are doing wellhey there J. it's not often that I get a chance to connect with many subs but you always came in the school and sat right down with us like one of the family and you became that at Grassland. Best of luck to you and your family out there and if they don't treat you right you KNOW where home is
- We miss youDude, I miss you guys too. I responded to an email from Jessie but it wouldn't send...gotta figure that out. Life is great in T-town and I think of the ole bus yard every time I pass by a cheese wagon. I lived in a hotel for a month that was next to the Union Middle School...lots of buses and I critiqued how each one drove! This bus thing is in my blood now.
Good news, our house sold and we'll be back sometime next month to let the movers in to haul it all away. I'll try to swing by. Enjoy the “downtime” this summer!
Jim - Sue and Morning ShowSince you we're listening this morning you understand when I say...Was it a coincidence or a God Moment? (I wouldn't be so bold to say it was a God Moment from my end, but from your end is what matters!)Thank you for listening and please call or write anytime.
Jim - Morning ShowI normally listen to Contemporary Christian Radio, but since one of the local stations is gone, i find myself pushing the radio buttons more frequently, thus find myself at K95.5 (maybe it is the country roots) Anyway, this morning I was really pleased to hear what you were saying as well as the influx of "GOD MOMENTS". I know that things don't happen by chance or coincidence, but God's hand is in all we do, so it was wonderful to hear a 'secular' station talking about that and letting listeners share their stories. I'm ev en finding that a lot of 'country' music shares God, too. Thanks for what you do and thank you for letting God use you in a super neat way.
- We miss you JimHi Jim. Well you never thought you would hear from us again. This is the big mouth dispatcher story teller. We just want you to know how much we miss you hear. I hope things are going great. Jessie and I try to listen to your show when it is quite enough. Give us a shout if you get back to the Franklin area.
Robert WCS Dispatcher - Hi Jim-I just met you for the 1st time today outside of Reesor's offering free sandwiches. (I'm the one who's husband is a tennis coach.) What a nice guy you are! I came home & read your bio & was right about how nice you seem. You are right.....You should be VERY proud of the job you took & your decision to do WHATEVER IT TOOK to support your family. That is a true man & your family must love you to pieces! I enjoyed meeting you. Have a wonderful day!
Sally - Bus DriverWhen you were driving buses, did you ever get to drive a bus for one or two of the country stars? I'll bet Doug Stone, Kevin Sharp, or Bill Anderson would be a hootin' good time, for sure! You know, big stars like that!
- Tulsa is luckyTulsa is lucky to have you. I miss you putting a smile on my face each and every day I listened to the radio in Nashville, TN. Good Luck in OK!
- T-TOWNHope you enjoy it here. I always listen in the mornings and the first day you was on air just visiting (or applying) I thought you did really good. You have a great radio voice and fast with remarks. Hope all goes well. Now that you are here are you going to be a sooner fan? Lets hope so!

- T-townJust wanted to welcome you to the Soooner state and to Tulsa. I didn't know Tom Carrey was leaving so I was slightly confused when I head your voice with Kelley. But we're glad to have you here and best of luck to you!
