The Fabulous 413 on 88.5 NEPM is a daily afternoon radio show hosted by Monte Belmonte and Kaliis Smith celebrating life in western Massachusetts — and a kind of “Mister Rogers’ Neighborhood” for grown-ups.

88.5 NEPM is NPR and local perspective for western Mass.

Monte Belmonte was born and raised in Massachusetts and has been a radio host in western Massachusetts for the last 20 years. He’s married to Smith College Spanish lecturer Melissa Belmonte, and has three incredibly creative kids, Atticus, Enzo and Pax.

Kaliis Smith is originally from Roxbury and now lives in Springfield. A guitarist, she’s in several local bands including Ex-Temper, The Brass, and Soul Magnets, and she’s the author of “Finger and Thumb.” Her latest is “Sir Morien,” a children’s book co-written with New York Times bestselling author Holly Black.
