Great stories about what it's really like behind the scenes of a TV News station. I look forward to it every week!
These guys have chemistry. They're expert at what they do. They make me laugh. I may, or may not be, Sebastian's mother. Listen to this show. Now!
I'm a fan, y'all. Waiting for Aaron Franco to chime in keeps me comin' back!
Hilarious commentary and really fascinating insight into the local TV news business. A must-subscribe for people in the industry and the public who crave insider knowledge of how the news gets on TV
it is refreshing to listen to a "behind the curtain" that is more about the story, than the people. There have been stations that do self promoting looks at covering the news, this is not one of them. This is true story telling in the same league of NPR’s Fresh Air.
Give it a listen and a like.
