Long-time residents of Birmingham and fans of Beaner and Ken may be wondering if the voice of Vulcan the Merman in the Shark and Ray video series created by Provenance Digital Media for McWane Science Center sounds familiar for a reason…

Well, we’ll answer this another way… This morning we got an email from Ken thanking us for posting the screenshot and link from the Beaner and Ken website last May and letting us know about his new gig he started two weeks ago in his new Southern hometown – Columbia, SC.

Accoding to Ken, the new Tyler and Ken Show (the blog’s up, the website’s coming) is doing really well and it’s available via audio stream at New 92 Country’s (yes, country’s) website. They’re also working on their own site.

We also think you’ll appreciate this note from Ken – after the jump that is…

My MOST sincere Thank You to all of our Birmingham and Syracuse fans. You guys have given me what I thought would only be a once-in-a-lifetime experience, and allowed me to play at the coolest, most interesting and fulfilling job I’ve ever had. It’s my hope that Tyler and I will one day be broadcast over Birmingham’s ever so familiar airwaves. I consider all of our listeners (and I can speak for Beaner on this as well) the most intelligent and loyal radio audience in the world. It was an honor to have been allowed to grace your eardrums, and I will never forget single moment.

Thanks… And have a nice “Vulcan” day!!!
