Michael Reagan's radio career began with an appearance as a guest host on Michael Jackson's program from KABC in Los Angeles. Michael Reagan was then host of a top-rated local radio program on San Diego's KSDO before launching his national program in 1992.

His racing raised more than $1.5 million for charities like the United States Olympic Team, Cystic Fibrosis and Juvenile Diabetes Foundations and the Statue of Liberty Restoration Fund. His efforts were recognized when he became a recipient of the "Victor Award" for outstanding sports and humanitarian achievement. Michael Reagan also serves on the board for The John Douglas French Alzheimer's Foundation and has authored many successful books including his best-selling autobiography, "On the Outside Looking In," and "The Common Sense of An Uncommon Man: The Wit, Wisdom and Eternal Optimism of Ronald Reagan."
