Earlier this week, someone asked me a question that caught me off guard: “What do you do all day?” The way he asked, it sounded like he thought I didn’t actually work!

After a week at the hospital in Madison, I was released on Friday afternoon and told to “lay low” for a few days. So, I followed those … Continue reading THE POWER OF THE TV REMOTE

Maynard spoke first, sharing his personal journey into radio, … Continue reading SHARING ABOUT KLQP
