Video's

Hey guys, I just wanted to jump in here and let you now that we are looking at all the videos. Some are good, some are great and some are really really bad. What is funny is that it is exactly like the tapes we are getting from pro's that are already in the business. Some are good, some are great and some are really, really bad. I wish I could explain what we are looking for, but it is kind of like something that is obscene....you know it when you see it. We are in no hurry to fill this job. In fact, I am wondering if we even need a sidekick at all. The show seems to be moving along just fine without one. Maybe it is just me. Regarding the comments, we TOTALLY can tell when you have asked your friends to log in and comment..we find it funny. You have to be able to take the comments from the people that aren't your friends with a grain of salt, both good and bad. This is a great job. There are alot of good times and some stressful ones, like Wednesday when we get ratings. Very stressful, not fun, exhausting. If you get the job, be ready to work like a dog. If you want to be a star, try out for reality TV. This is not the ticket to stardom. If you are serious about radio, it is a grind, it is frustrating, it is embarassing, it is exciting, it is rewarding, it is alot more than just "Chatting" on the radio. Once bitten by the radio bug it is tough to get away from it. Good luck.

Peace.

Hi Sandy,

I have a question.

For those of us who are serious about radio but who are perhaps not especially talented/photogenic with the video making do you have some other recommended path for getting into radio?

For example is there a mail room job or something of that sort?

Thanks Sandy for the update and raw truth! My question is: will there be a heads up for closing date? I have been trying my best to get my video up and I'd hate to miss the chance, being that I've always craved to be in radio and know I'd be good at it. Thank goodness this isn't for a film position, ha. Thank you!

Lauri is a hottie, and she seems very smart. I hope she is as silly, wild, and entertaining as ya'll. I love that 3 E's thing. Cute, cute, cute...
