Here's a week's worth of show notes and other odds and ends. We had our open house for the opening of the new studios on Thurs., Nov. 12. It was great fun but glad it's past. Time to catch up. Here's some show notes. Remember, they're not legal documents and are sometimes a good representation of what went on during the show... and sometimes it's me kinda daydreaming. Either way, one day some historian with cigarette and coffee breat will find this stuff interesting. At least I hope so. It’s 8:26 on a Saturday morning and I’m sitting in bed typing to you. Alexis just made me some eggs with green, peppers, onions and tomatoes – with a little Parmesan cheese sprinkled on top – and that made me happy. Now I’m back in bed typing to the three or four of you.
It probably won’t be the longest of typing sessions in that we’re set to broadcast live from the Veterans Appreciation Day Parade along 173rd in Hammond. The parade starts just a few blocks from the new station, but it really doesn’t matter if you’re doing a remote broadcast two blocks from your station or a hundred miles. It’s still a remote broadcast and you have to plug your field mixer into a solid phone or internet source and make sure it all works. Then someone from the station – today it’s Cristina – has to be on site to make sure that the voice levels stay in line and that you don’t lose power or connectivity with the internet. And then someone has to be in the station’s studios to take the feed in and play the commercials and to tell the people out in the field if their levels are too low or too hot or too uneven between the voices. You get the picture. There’s a good chance that in the next 30 minutes I’ll get a text and have to rush over to the beginning of the parade to make sure that it gets on the air and that those who have served our country get their due.
