I've been working in the newspaper business for over a decade. First at The Dispatch, then Wapakoneta, St. Marys and now Lima. I feel I'm pretty good at what I do, and I have plenty of examples to back that up.
I've been doing this radio show on Saturday mornings for maybe 8 or 9 months now. It requires very little talent. Just talk ... be interesting and don't cuss. I guess I'm pretty good at that as well, cause they keep having me come on and guest host in a pinch.
Why is it, though, that people think I'm famous or special now because I'm on the radio? What, working at one of the largest newspapers in the state (and the nation for that matter) wasn't good enough?
This radio thing doesn't pay the bills, and I don't take it too seriously. The newspaper pays the bills (or some of them) and requires real talent and skill.
