My new gig…

The things I get myself into . . .

Ric Cochran, V100’s afternoon (3 to 7 pm) DJ, called to see if I’d be willing to try my hand on the air as a regular guest on his show. So thoroughly charming was Ric (and so convincing was he that I wouldn’t make a complete fool of myself on the air) that I agreed to give it a shot.

I can’t count the times this week that I’ve had mini panic attacks at the thought of being live on the air. I’m not a fast thinker. Any clever lines I manage to come up with are usually the result of long battles with the keyboard. They seldom spurt forth easily on their own. But like I said, Ric’s charming and convincing, and luckily, he’s also very easy to talk to. He managed to get me talking, although I’m not sure how I sounded. Hopefully, after a few more attempts (yesterday was my first), I’ll not be as nervous. I’m on the schedule for Thursdays at 4:15.

    I’m so disappointed I missed this!!! I love Ric Cochran and would also love hearing you on his show. This is definitely something I will look forward to. And don’t worry, you’ll be excellent!!

    THANKS for the vote of confidence. I figure it’ll take me several times before I stop being so nervous that my voice sounds like a mouse. Ric is so easy to talk to. He’s going to bring his wife (V100’s noontime DJ Jeanne K) on with us in the next week or two. I just love her so I’m really looking forward to that.

    I can’t wait to hear you and Ric talk. I love listening to Jeanne K and Ric talk right before he takes over. Good Luck!!
