Tonight, Pat Sajak hosts his final episode of “Wheel Of Fortune”. His farewell remarks have been all over Facebook today but I’m trying to avoid them….I want to see the final episode in its entirety. Pat Sajak’s dry humor will be sorely missed…he was a perfect match for this game. And yet, there was a … Continue reading The Replacements
DOC: Here we are at the final chapter of our GGR Networks history: Specials and Co-Productions! Co-productions are series that involve other creative voices besides Doc and Dave. I think the first of these was “Ten Songs Will Survive”, which is also the only one of our series that can legitimately be labeled a podcast. … Continue reading The GGR Networks Story: Chapter Five
I was talking on the ol’ Facebook with my old childhood chum Paisley Park. (That is not her real name, but since that’s how she prefers to be named on Facebook, that’s how I identify her here.) I posted a photo of me with Chuck McCann, a comic actor who did a series of Right … Continue reading Jingles Work!
DAVE: Let’s talk Tales from the Inner Sanctum. I originally had some ideas for exploring the Inner Sanctum in Scare on the Air, but after a discussion with Dr. J decided that it would be better suited to make a new series for it. Plus, we needed a good anthology series. We follow a long … Continue reading The GGR Networks Story: Chapter Four
DOC: To say that one of our radio series is my favorite is like a parent having a favorite child. But I must confess, I have a special place in my heart for “Scare On The Air.” DAVE: WENTY! Are you saying Scare is your favorite child?! DOC: I’m trying NOT to say it! But … Continue reading The GGR Networks Story: Chapter Three
DOC: The year is 2010. After starting “Golden Girls Radio”, and launching its spin-off “The Saint Olaf Files”, Dave and I were ready for a new series to add to the roster. As far back as I can remember, I have loved sketch comedy. I remember watching “Carol Burnett”, “SCTV”, “Saturday Night Live” and others. … Continue reading The GGR Networks Story: Chapter Two

Writer, actor, and such. DAVE: 2024 marks the 20th Anniversary of the founding of our little nickel and dime internet radio frolics! Where does the time go?! DOC: … Continue reading The GGR Networks Story: Chapter One
In July of 1998 my Dad and I traveled to Alliance Nebraska, where I would be starting a new job at KCOW. As we approached the city, I heard KCOW for the first time. And the first voice I heard was that of Mike Glesinger. I’ve worked with Gles for 25 years. He’s a coworker, … Continue reading Glesless
In 1998, when I was applying for the position of FM Programming Coordinator at KCOW/Double Q Country, I wrote in my application letter that I could write a 30-second commercial in 30 seconds. This falls under the category of youthful hubris, and/or “Don’t let your mouth write checks your butt can’t cash.” But the truth … Continue reading Twelve Commercials?!!?
That title could refer to so very many things. But it refers to Christmas. Yet again, I am preparing for the ol’ K-Cow going all-Christmas music much, much earlier than I personally would like. This year Reindeer Radio takes over November 13th. And I have come to peace with it. This is something like the … Continue reading It’s Too Damn Early!
