We Be Big

Book Description

The story of two unlikely radio hosts and what happened when they followed their faith and instincts. Rick & Bubba are the most unlikely broadcast stars imaginable, yet hundreds of thousands of loyal listeners start their day with them every morning. Beyond that, they break the biggest no-no rule for secular radio as they openly share their faith in Christ and their common-sense way of looking at the world. Now, in We Be Big: The Mostly True Story of How We Became Rick & Bubba, readers learn how this unlikely pairing came about. Alternately hilarious and heartbreaking, this is also the highly personal story of two men who—like most of us—resisted stepping through the doors God opened for them, opting for the easier path when tested. When they finally decided to follow their instincts and their faith, though, not only did they became amazingly successful, but also a truly powerful platform became theirs.

This was a really interesting book to review. Rick and Bubba start the book with their stories from childhood on. They are funny and real the whole way through the book. Both men were interested in radio at an early age, but other sports and activities sparked their fancy throughout their childhood. When they met they knew something special was created. They loved their radio show, but changes in ownership of the radio station made them trust God in a whole new way.

I recommend this book for other media lovers, such as myself. Rick and Bubba are hilarious and you can totally relate to their life stories and testimonies. Check it out!
