Larry Mantle is the host of LAist 89.3’s AirTalk, the longest-running daily talk show in Southern California — and even though his son Desmond is studying law and pursuing a different career, he shares his dad’s fascination with the world and his drive to understand why things are the way they are. On Passing the Mantle, Larry and Desmond dive into societal trends, share unexpected life experiences that have shaped their values — and reveal stories that neither of them has ever heard before. They will give listeners an honest look at their relationship as father and son and new insight into Larry’s life when he’s not on air.
