Jill Whelan's "The Dirt"

Sundays 3pm-4pm

Jill Whelan's "The Dirt" is a weekly one-hour review of the hottest celebrity news and gossip. "The Dirt" features interviews with tinsel town's newest and hottest celebrities, up-to-the-minute tabloid news, and enough gossip to make even the fattest supermarket rag green with envy.

Becoming a Big Talker is a natural next step for Jill Whelan, who began her career in front of a camera and more recently, behind the camera. 

What a combination of experience Jill brings to The Big Talker 1210! An entertainer, a concert producer, and news junkie…Jill is just what The Big Talker listeners need to get their Saturday mornings charged up!

An accomplished television, movie, and stage actress, Jill is often remembered best for her roles as Vicki on the Love Boat and Nurse Nancy on The Young and the Restless. She’s worked with hundreds of legendary performers, including Frank Sinatra, Carol Channing, and Ethel Merman.

No stranger to the White House, Jill served as the national spokesperson for the Reagan administration’s “Just Say No!” anti-drug campaign and performed for both the Reagan and Bush administrations. 

Jill has also worked behind the scenes at Madison Square Garden, where she produced the legendary MTV Birthday tribute to Bob Dylan and Harry Connick Live at the Paramount.

Jill has always loved news, so after she had kids, she began working at a news station as an assignment desk assistant and worked her way up to an investigative producer at KCOP in Los Angeles.

She now lives in Yardley with her husband, Michael, and their two boys.

Dish with Jill Whelan on "The Dirt" Sunday afternoons from 3 until 4 PM on The Big Talker 1210, WPHT.
