So, You Think You Want to be in Radio?

Who doesn't? You're riding the air. Spinnin' stacks of wax. Mastering modern technology in service to timeless music.

While we're telling you what you just heard on WCLV 104.9 FM or wclv.com, each of you is in your own world, whether that's at work, home, school, or your car. Inside the control room, however, is OUR world -- planet radio.

You may laugh, but lots of people in radio ARE from a different planet and others should be sent there without delay.

At a different radio station long ago, I worked with a program host whose fetid aroma was so ripe that if your shift followed his, you'd take a deep breath in the hallway, rush through your first break, then while your first piece of music was playing, prop open the door and air out the control room.

In contrast, my WCLV colleagues are clean and well-groomed. We have one staff member who is SO clean that he washes his spare tire. Not his tummy -- the spare tire in the car trunk. We've suggested he get professional help.
