My Experience With Going On Q102

In case you didn't know, I went on Q102 this morning to forecast the weather on the Booker Show, from 6 - 10 A.M.

I'd have to say it was one of the best experiences of my life so far.  I had so much fun with it...I've always wanted to be on the radio, more than I've wanted to be on T.V.

The funny thing is that even the Q102 DJ's get sick of hearing the music that Q102 plays, because they play the same songs over and over again.  As soon as a song would come on, Booker and Blaire would take off their headsets immediately.

Bottom line is that I am so glad I got to experience going on the radio at a young age, 16 years old.  It is definitely something that I would do again and again, if I had the opportunity to.

P.S.  Sorry, Doug, about Blaire making fun of you when you called in...she was sitting right next to me, and she really was clueless about you when she heard your voice.  Thanks for calling in though, man !  You should try and get yourself on some radio station now...I had a blast with it, and it was a great experience !

In case you weren't listening, I gave David Aldrich plenty of good publicity. I called him a "bold forecaster" and said that he was the best Meteorologist in Philadelphia.

We even had Good Day on the T.V. in the studio, so we could watch David work his magic. LOL.

B_Don - For what it's worth...I was impressed with the mature way you handled yourself.

Today's official high temperature in Philadelphia was 66 degrees at 1:53 P.M. I agreed with David Aldrich and called for 64 degrees at 1 P.M. It's only 2 degrees and 53 minutes off...Booker's NBC 10 forecast only called for 60 degrees !

Oh and I didn't mention that Booker bought everyone breakfast during the show...and they said it's very rare for him to do that. I got some special treatment...LOL.

You have nothing to be blamed for Brain...Her comments were not your fault.

Besides, while I stated my opinion about Blare or whoever she is, I can not allow my skin to bed thinned by it. You can sometimes face much worse comments.

I didn't want to make it any worse than it already was, Doug, so I said nothing else. LOL.

Doug, you should try and get on Chio in the Morning on Wired 96.5...they are the Booker Show's worst enemy. You can be their weather anchor, LOL.

I didn't mention that Diego wasn't on the show today because his mom got rushed to Temple Hospital...I wish his mom the best.

Angi did the show from Chicago...we could see her on the webcam.

Well, I love waking up early, but 4 A.M. is really early. LOL. I'm tired ! All the coffee I drank this morning is wearing off.

Another thing I forgot to mention...they wanted me to leave my cell phone number in case they need help with the weather again. So I left it for them.
