Before becoming a nationally syndicated radio talkshow host, Failla was a taxi driver and a standup comedian.

FOX Across America with Jimmy Failla bombarded into Utica on Friday as the FOX News Radio host appeared on WIBX's Keeler Show, and then broadcast his national program from noon until 3 from WIBX's studios. - a former head writer and on-air contributor for "Kennedy" on the Fox Business Network - says "Fox Across America" is best described as "a celebration of our unique American privilege, and will function as an audio safe space where people of all political persuasions can disagree and still get along!"

Today's political climate is sorely in need of talent with the unifying ability to allow both sides to debate the issues straight up.

Failla, on his national broadcast, didn't shy away from Utica-Rome as he prepared for five sell-out shows at Fat Katz Comedy Club inside Tony's Pizza in Washington Mills. He boasted about Utica's Italian food and spoke of Chicken Riggies, Utica Greens, and Tomato Pie. He bragged about his breakfast at Top Of The Morning Cafe in North Utica, Nothing Bundt Cakes in New Hartford, and the Turkey Joints Senator Joe Griffo brought in from Rome.
