The Dana Cortez Show
2:00pm - 6:00pm


Dana Cortez
Dana Cortez is a nationally syndicated radio host who shatters the glass when it comes to an industry where diverse female voices struggle to be heard and where women rarely occupy the lead role in a multi-cast show. A second generation Mexican American, Cortez grew up in poverty in West Texas and brings her experience and the perspective of many disenfranchised Americans to her show every day. On the Dana Cortez Show she “creates a room of her own,” using the airwaves to elevate topics of importance and interest often lost in the 24-hour news cycle. Cortez speaks to the female Latino experience in America and to her broader audience, she’s insightful on topics of relationships and pop culture. She has a nuanced way about her interviews with celebrities that allows them to feel comfortable and creates a more genuine conversation. She shares her show with her husband and executive producer DJ Automatic, and comedian Anthony A.

DJ Automatic
DJ Automatic is Executive Producer, co-host and also Dana Cortez’s husband. Their relationship makes for a fun and relatable dynamic on air. In addition to producing and hosting DCS daily, Auto is also a prestigious DJ; he’s currently the official DJ for the Phoenix Suns and when he’s not mixing the playlist for the show, he’s traveling to perform a new gig on some of the biggest stages in the world.

Anthony A.
Anthony A. is the in-house bachelor and best friend every couple wishes they had. He’s also the funniest co-host in the biz. When he’s not on air delivering a sassy one-liner, you can find him doing stand up on stage at comedy clubs across the nation.
