Tony has always had a passion for radio. Being born and raised in La Mirada (Southern California), radio had a large influence in Tony's life. As a youngster Tony fell asleep endless summer nights, listening to Vin Scully and Dodgers Baseball. He followed Top 40 radio with great passion, following the charts and listening to great AM radio stations such as 93KHJ and FM stations such as KKDJ, KIQQ, etc. An avid radio listener, Tony has seen the comings and goings, so he is knowledgeable of the Los Angeles radio scene; of the last twenty-five years or so. Tony, a California native, is very involved in the community in which he grew up-and now raises his own family with his wife of eleven years, Carmen and his three sons, Tyler, Miles, and of course, Tony Aiello Jr. (A.J.). Some of Tony's favorite hobbies include gardening, playing sports, coaching sports, collecting memorabilia, and bike riding. Born and raised in La Mirada, Tony attends City Council meetings and study sessions on a regular basis. In 1998, Councilman Dave Peters and the City of La Mirada recognized Tony's contributions to the community; by appointing him to the city's Historical Heritage Commission. Tony is also very much involved in the public school system. Tony served as the Foster Road Elementary School PTA Treasurer in 1998-99 and 1999-2000. Tony attempted to capture a seat on the Norwalk-La Mirada Unified School District Executive Board in 1999. He didn't win, but finished respectably. Today, he serves on the district's Facilities Task Force. The committee is assigned the difficult task of creating and implementing a master plan; to help an aging district maintain and upgrade school sites; as well as handle student growth and decline, along with addressing the facility needs of the students. In 1995 Tony embarked on a new career somewhat, accidentally. He began phoning in 'on-air' weather reports to his buddy (and fellow John Glenn High School Eagle) Shawn Parr on KZLA-FM, and was dubbed "Tony the Weatherscout from La Mirada", Tony realized radio is what he loved and radio is what he wanted to do. So, Tony the Weatherscout was born.
The "Tony the Weatherscout Show" an Internet radio program debuted in December 1998-on a local radio station in Hollywood as part of the "Kaleidoscope Magazine" and the American Radio Network. The music program was heard on local radio in Hollywood and around the world on the Internet and featured "bubble gum" pop classics from the late sixties and early seventies.(These songs can be heard as the bumper music for today's "Tony the Weatherscout Show") In early 2000, Tony joined AdrenalineRadio.com as a fill-in host, board-op, and doing voice-overs for commercials (Tony's true love), and other various projects. In September 2000 the new "Tony the Weatherscout Show" debuted as the source for information on Internet Radio. The program features a unique "mix", by providing essential information- that helps people live their everyday lives. All with an entertaining, slap-happy, effervescent, and sometimes downright weird, twist. Politics, American history facts and trivia, topical guests, current events, news, social issues, debates, contests, on-location broadcasts, "road trips", and election coverage, And proudly, the program provides a forum for news and guests that are squeezed out of today's mainstream media allowing for an outlet for the unheard voice. The appealing nature of the show's common-sense approach-and the apparent representation of the ordinary "Jack" in today's society-makes for a fun hour! To compliment the radio program, in June of 2001 Tony debuted a weekly lifestyle column in the Southeast Cities Tribune Newspaper, providing local So. Cal. residents with a perspective, and providing the community with the intimate feeling; that only a local newspaper can provide. In April of 2002 Tony was featured on the front page of the Whittier Daily News. He was dubbed by the newspaper as, "The Voice of La Mirada". Tony joined the City of La Mirada's "Concerts Under the Stars" Summer concert series-as the Announcer/MC in July 2002 Check out the Tony the Weatherscout Show every Tuesday at 4PM pacific time (US) for the most unique hour of radio you've experienced in quite some time! 20th Annual Vince Ferragamo Foundation Celebrity Golf Classic
