We are back together ON THE RADIO!!
We have tried the uncensored podcasting route. It’s just not for us, right now.
Although a lot of it was fun, we really missed being heard by the general public every day. We missed having a full staff around us with an office atmosphere. And, honestly, It’s nice to have a regular paycheck too!
As you know, our decision to broadcast on terrestrial radio means we need to stay within the FCC guidelines and we need to respect the standards of our advertisers. For us, that’s no problem. Funny is funny. And if you can’t be funny without cussing, you aren’t truly funny!
We chose the TALK format so that we don’t have to play music. The TALK format is a little bit different than music stations. TALK is all about “the conversation.” As partners, that is what we want to do, have great conversation that relies on our chemistry. Most of it will be funny, but sometimes we want to have meaningful conversations. This isn’t a format for stunts & prank calls. LOL We hope you guys enjoy the format. We are pretty pumped!
Last time we were together in these same studios our company was called Clear Channel. Since then, there has been a MAJOR transformation. A few years ago, a new CEO named Bob Pitman took over. If the name sounds familiar, it’s because he started MTV and has been a genius and pioneer for both radio and television. When he came to our company, he kindly released all of the negative people, made it a great place to work for positive people, designed the i-HeartRadio app, teamed up with every major music artist on the planet, dropped the Clear Channel name, called us i-HeartMedia and turned us into the biggest broadcast company in the world. i-Heart is now one of the best and most respected in the nation. We are honestly proud to work here. I personally met with Bob back in March of 2015, where we started laying out my future. I told him I want to bring back the Dog House and he was the first person to really take me serious. Here we are! After a lot of hard work, on the video front, Natasha & I will also start developing television shows for i-HeartMedia in 2016.
