Suprise

Howdy! How's it going today folks!

Today I am back for another superb blog. Like I promised I am going to have a surprise topic today. My topic is about what my radio show is all about. I work from 3 - 5 pm every Tuesday and Thursday. I have the absolute best time when working.

My two hours I have are the busiest hours of the day. The 3 to 5 time is when people are gettng off work and heading home. When people head home after work they tend to listen to the radio for news, sports and weather. On my show, I start playing great music to get the listeners pumped up. I usually play the promos that are required at :05 and :40 of my hours. The Sky Watch Forecast is at :20 and :40 of the hours. The News Watch update occurs at :15 of the hour. During my shift, I am really busy keeping the listeners updated on the news, sports and weather.

On Tuesday and Thursday, when I work I have my "Bonehead of the Day" segment at 4:00. This segment I tell the listeners a story about a criminal or a person that has done something stupid. Sometimes I have to question what people are thinking when I read these funny stories. On Thursday, after the Bonehead I have the Top 5 at 4:05. This segment I play the top five songs in the country at the time. I have been doing this segment for five weeks now, and Taylor Swift has been number 1 for three weeks. Not only do I have these great segments, but I take requests the whole two hours. They can be called in or emailed to me. That is what I like about working there. If anybody wants to hear anything they want they can call me and I will put it on the radio for them. Last but not least, the thing I always do on my two hour shift is play great HitMix music. We have music from the 50's till today with a touch of country. There are some great tunes at the radio station that I sometimes want to hear, I put them in the system to hear. So if you are never doing anything from 3 - 5 sometimes on Tuesday and Thursday listen to me on HitMix 88.9 WEIU.

That puts a lid on today's RitzBitz blog next time I plan to write about Chicago Cubs and their upcoming season and what to expect. Until then, stay kind and rewind.
