Sheena Metal is an entertainment icon who has anchored numerous radio shows for over 15 years in Los Angeles. Her current top-rated talk show, "The Sheena Metal Experience" airs daily on the City Of Angels' hottest new station, LA Talk Radio; where Sheena has interviewed: movie stars, TV icons, Broadway legends, studio heads, writers, doctors, chefs, shark experts and ghost hunters…just to name a few. In addition, Metal hosts two other weekly shows for LA Talk Radio: "Music Highway", a music/talk hybrid, heard five years running and 2010's, "Haunted Playground", a paranormal cornucopia of ghosts, monsters, aliens and other things that go bump in the night.

Sheena Metal first grabbed the attention of LA radio fanatics spending six years on the then "Howard Stern" station KLSX (97.1 the FM Talk Station) where she helmed five successful shows ("The Sheena Show", "Late Night Booty Call", "Sheena and The Princess", "Sheena and Sam", "The Nastyman Show"). Her untouchable wit, unforgettable voice and unflinching fan base have proven Sheena to be an undeniable radio presence, the subject of a comprehensive feature in the Los Angeles Times Sunday Calendar, as well as in: LA Weekly, The Daily News, Music Connection and dozens of other periodicals. In addition, Metal was interviewed and quoted in Michael C. Keith's "Sounds in the Dark", currently in publication with a forward by radio monarch, Larry King.

Known for her biting sense of humor, Metal has appeared as a comedic commentator on "National Inquirer TV," was the annual host of theAll Access Music Awards, and has headlined two long-running stand-up comedy nights at The Laugh Factory in Hollywood ("Sheena Metal's Midnight Madness" and "Inside the Girl's Locker Room"); the latter of which was an all-girl "laugh in" praised by the LA Times. Not one to turn down any audience who loves to laugh, Sheena found another comedy niche, in the summer of 2008, when she became the humorous emcee for a host of Gay Pride Festivals across the United States including: the slick San Diego, and the mountainous Montana.
