It’s Thanksgiving! Time to see how much we can eat, how much we can drink, how much family dynamics we can handle, how much football we can watch, and do all of it without falling asleep on the couch. I urge everyone to indulge in what makes you feel good. Whether it’s an extra serving of dessert, laughter with loved ones, or even that afternoon nap on the sofa.
This year is a special one, as it’s the first time in probably a decade that my family is getting together for Thanksgiving. Both of my parents and their significant others, my brother and his family, and my in-laws. I have a good feeling that this is going to be a great gathering. As long as nobody talks politics, and the turkey is fully thawed (and doesn’t get overcooked) everything will be perfect.
I’m thankful for a lot of things, including all of you. Thank you for allowing me (and all of us at the station) into your lives every day. We know you have a choice, and the fact that you choose us isn’t something we take lightly. Together, we are the spirit of this community. We couldn’t possibly do this without you. Also, to the great local advertisers who help us pay the bills and keep this valuable local community resource on the air, we are thankful for you as well. On behalf of all of us, Happy Thanksgiving!

New Parental Fear Unlocked
As parents, we want what is best for our kids. We want to protect them from all harm. But we also don’t want to shelter them from wonderful life experiences. My wife and I pretty much allowed our kids to do mostly what they want, as long as they weren’t getting into trouble and as […]

Those Post-Olympic Blues Are Real
The last two weeks were so incredible. I had the pleasure of covering the games with twice-daily Olympic updates on our Civic Media radio stations. For most of us, the two weeks of the games are like a vacation. A break from the same-old routine, a break from our typical television viewing habits, and most […]

It seems like the Milan Cortina Winter Games just started. What a fast two weeks it has been! I have had the pleasure of bringing you the twice-daily updates throughout the games. Not just on this station, but on all of our Civic Media stations all over the state, and even in Minnesota, too. When […]
