First Blog!

Hi. I'm The Bob. So I guess I have a blog now. I must be cool.

Well, I guess I'll give you a little Bob history about my time in the wonderful world of radio. I don't know if ANYONE cares at all, but I don't know where else to really start a blog. So here we go:

I was hired here at RadioFirst (the company that owns WBTI) on my 18th birthday, January 1st 2008. Yes, I'm a New Year's Baby, and no it's not cool. Everything is closed on my birthday, and everyone's partied out. It's poopy. Anyway, I came in and started out as a board operator, which is basically the guy who sits around and presses buttons that play commercials. Super easy. So after about a month of that, Ben Coburn called and asked if I wanted to be on WBTI. Obviously I said yes. I also remember jumping around with happiness like a little kid on Christmas. I love radio.

So I started the very awesome Saturday Night on Demand, a request show from 7:00-Midnight. It's pretty fun. Call and request something! (810) 966-9696 or Toll Free (877) 966-9696. I'm very friendly. For the most part.

Oh I almost forgot, I met my wife here too! Deidre Lynn, from Q-Country 107. We became awesome friends instantly. We used to sit in her truck and talk until 5:00 AM. I've never gotten to know someone so fast. So after a while we started dating, and made the snap decision to get married, on June 26th. It's been great so far.

So that's about it. 2008 was a pretty good year. Started an awesome job and got married. Not too bad.

Well, this blog was excessively long, but you have to start somewhere, right?
