From a very early age, Dean Olson always knew that one day, he would have his own radio show.  He just wasn’t sure exactly how he would accomplish this. Ever since the age of eight, when he received a brand new tape recorder and his dad showed him how to do simple tricks with it, Dean has been practicing home recording on a budget constantly over the years.  Believing that his love of cartooning, making music or becoming a radio broadcaster would not translate into a stable career, Dean traveled the long road to achieving his dreams.  Since meeting the love of his life in 1982, Dean made marriage and raising their two children to adulthood his number one priority.  He has been working on songwriting and recording since 1998,  with the dream of sharing it on the internet or radio.  In 2009,  Dean launched Strongwriter Productions, where he would interview music experts that would inspire him to keep creating.  After five decades, he finally found his voice and his audience with the help of a successful radio and media entrepreneur, Raven Blair Glover.  Since its debut in 2014, “Strongwriter On the Radio” is heard on the Amazing Men & Women Of Power Radio Network by 3 miilion people in over 150 countries.  In 2019, the show was launched in podcast form on several major sites (iTunes /Apple, iHeart Radio, Spotify, etc.)  and prime episodes are accessible on the Raven International TV channel (app available on Roku, Amazon Fire TV.)   From well known celebrities in music such as Thomas Dolby, Toni Tennille, Richard M. Sherman and Bunny DeBarge to independent artists, they all have a valuable story to tell.  Even actors with a musical background have relevant advice, most recently “Happy Days” stars Anson Williams and Donny Most.  Anyway you listen to them, Dean’s interviews are crafted to “learn from the best in the business and pass it along to you!”
