Florida Supreme Court Justice John Couriel made a guest appearance on the rock-oriented “Ed Scales Show” on US 1 Radio, FM 104 Sugarloaf Key, hosted by Third DCA Chief Judge Edwin Scales III. “[Justice Couriel] programmed the show, the music was his music,” Scales said. “We started with ‘Sloop John D’ by the Beach Boys, and we ended with ‘Johnny B. Goode’ by Chuck Berry.”

Contrary to his youthful appearance, double-Harvard degrees, and scholarly demeanor, Supreme Court Justice John Couriel harbors a fondness for the slightly subversive – classic rock.

On October 5, Florida’s 90th Justice – an Eagle Scout and father of two – spent a few hours in a cramped sound booth on Sugarloaf Key, co-hosting the rock-oriented “Ed Scales Show” on US 1 Radio, FM 104.
