Regular listeners to our J and J Midday show know that every other week, Justin and I exchange positions in the studio, one taking the seat at the controls, the other at the round table. (literally the "round table.") This keeps both of us polished in operating the station and dealing with multi-tasking the three computers, on-air phones, text inbox, emails, and everything that makes up our show. This week, […]
Jim Carlyle here. I don't agree with all the people, nor the way in which AM is being portrayed as "Emergency Services Need (only)" But, if it gets automakers to retain AM in vehicles, my industry wins.

Randy tells us that he'll be expanding the program […]
A/K/A "AREN'T YOU GLAD YOUR CAR ISN'T AN E-V TODAY?" We try to mention on days when it's (continuously) above 90 or flirting with 90 degrees to be "conservative" in electric use. It could be coincidence, it could be overusage of the local grid, but the "outage roulette" has begun this afternoon. Parts of our listening area in town are without power. Please check on your elderly neighbors and any […]
