Big news in the station this week is that we have a new general manager, Richard Pirodsky. He's from New York, and has got lots of radio experience. Since I've been at the station (2+ years), this is our second manager and we've had 3 interim mangers. Hopefully he'll hold the spot for a while.
Today had an 80's theme to it for two reasons.
1) I found vinyl versions this weekend of Herbie Hancock's "Future Shock" with Rockit (check out this article) , and Bob and Doug McKenzie's "Take off".
2) The English Beat is coming to town! I gave away some tickets today and I'll have more next week. I may try to do an interview too, we'll see.
Here's my video of the week!
