I’m Rey Ybarra, a media professional with over 29 years of experience in radio broadcasting, podcasting, TV hosting, keynote speaking, and media consulting. Based in Los Angeles, I’ve had the privilege of working with top-tier authors, entrepreneurs, and industry leaders. From hosting my own live radio talk show on KRLA 870 AM to moderating events with Shark Tank entrepreneurs, I’ve been able to connect with people at all levels of the media world. My experience has given me unique insights into the challenges faced by podcasters, media hosts, and public speakers—and I’m passionate about sharing that knowledge with you.

As the creator of Media Host Maker, I’m dedicated to helping you overcome the overwhelm that can come with hosting a podcast or radio show.

Whether you’re dealing with self-doubt, technical issues, or just need some guidance, I’m here to help you build the skills you need to succeed in media hosting and public speaking.
