Week 8 March 12th - March 16th

On this week of interning I did a lot of paperwork for the radio station which included doing the transmitter logs and properly filing them away.I also learned how to trouble shoot the voxpro when I am having problems with it in the studio. The way to do this is to reboot the system and give it five minutes to recover and the voxpro should be back to running as normal. On my radio show Thursday I talked about ways to improve your health and great stress busters. I also talked about the cheapest and best vacation spots for your entire family that cost under a thousand dollars. I covered other topics as the rise in crime and poverty and how the two are linked together. On Friday we had real talk and we had a great successful 30 minute show in which we followed a radio format and the show turned out much better than last week. In real talk we discuss topics that happened in the news and how they made us feel. In my opinion the best story was the story about the mother who had ten children and held a birthday party at chuckie cheese for her five year old and ended up leaving the five year old at chuckie cheese over night. The worst part about the story was the mother did not even realize she had forgotten the child until the next day! All of the real talk guest still can;t rap our heads around how this mother did this and didn't even notice till the next morning how bizarre and crazy is that. I really enjoyed real talk and I would love to see it continue. I especially love that it is something I really enjoy and its counts toward my intern hours... now that is what I consider work and play.
