Ahhh WUSC. You almost single-handedly created one very important element of my personality. I made…read moresome very good friends because of you, & heard a million amazing songs, some of which still haunt me to this day. Where would my ears be without you? Where would my heart be? Where would my bank account be? You caused a deep paradigm shift in several aspects of my life -- some for the better, some for the worse, some muddled somewhere inbetween. You were a rich, rich experience, & 2.5 years very well spent.

Each show has something completely new to offer. Yeah sometimes you get (dead air) "um....." (dead air). Some of my current favorites include: The metal show, hillbilly heaven, redbank bar and grill and the local show. Definitely something different when you turn the dial to 90.5.

But I found local musicians and some other artist like Edward Sharpe and The Avett brothers playing throughout the day. In short this is the only station I can stand unless Columbia decides to bring back an oldies station that mixes it up too.

Their "not a pledge drive pledge drive" was not too annoying and if I lived in the Columbia area, I'd certainly be sending them some money. This is the sort of programming we need on the air.

The facility is an amazing working studio and broadcasting station. Ever wonder how things have evolved through the years? They have the old equipment to show you. As if walking back in time through a time capsule, everything is preserved so nicely. It's a wonderful journey through time and behind the scenes to see where all the magic happens. Each member of the staff are amazing individuals. We felt welcomed from the moment we arrived and cannot wait to return. So excited to be able to visit part of history and be able to be a part of recreating it-- bringing the golden age of radio drama back to the main stage and audience pervue!

Came to my neighborhood coopers pond in Blythewood SC after a woman reported a loud bang outside…read moreher house. Keep in mind she filed it with police 48 hours or more after and apparently felt safe enough to immediately return to work the same day within hours. The camera crews had to wait for several hours to get a shot of our empty street to use in the drive by shooting incident narrative they let hang on this site. A few minutes with an actual witness to the incident a military veteran confirmed there was an old box van and either there was a large caliber sawed off shot gun or the truck she had seen had backfired. Considering the years of military experience, the lack of holes in anything, and if a drive by the reporting citizens devotion to work overriding her concern for community by not calling the cops immediately, I am going to have to say this station doesn't do journalism their ratings chasers and narrative pushers and to ignore anything else they put out because they investigate nothing. You can look at a police blotter report and get more accurate news.

I started out writing music & movie reviews in 1998, dabbled in a few news stories (mostly puff-pieces), & wound up a columnist for the Viewpoints section, where I discovered that I had a vast array of Opinions, Dammit! I had Beliefs! Although this was a fact I hadn't realized until my buddy Kenley -- the editor at the time -- installed me as the assistant section editor. For example: Frat Boys? I didn't really care for them. Honors Kids? They got some perks that the rest of us didn't get, & it wasn't cool in my opinion. Athletes? Dumb Freeloaders, the whole lot. George Bush & Al Gore? I wasn't impressed with either of them, & I even threw my hat into the ring in the '00 election, though the wheels came off once Cameron Diaz never answered my letter requesting that she be my first lady. Hell, I even invented a fake boy band consisting of myself & five other friends on staff. We called ourselves The Hi-Notes. Basically, half my readers thought I was a dumb jerk, & the other half thought I was a funny jerk. The truth was actually neither. I was pretty shy -- it was an alter ego, well, the jerkiness was, but I did become a little more outspoken because of it, & I credit my days as a columnist for my penchant for occasional showmanship. Basically, it was the perfect outlet for a nerd in denial (i.e. me).
