I've had the pleasure of going into the studios 2 times now to appear on Good Morning Washington,…read moreand it was such a pleasure each time. First thing! Parking: There is a large parking garage under the building and the attendant is pretty friendly. He'll ask you how long you're planning on being there, and for me, it was always like 1 hour so he would park me somewhere real close. Second thing! There is a little cafe across the street that opens super early. So if you're on Good Morning Washington and have to be at the studios at 7:15, you can grab a bacon egg and cheese sandwich across the street- I believe the spot opens at like 6 for all the early birds. Third! The biggest surprise to entering the TV Studio is that pretty much 90 percent of the space is taken up by desks. It's pretty much like a huge office and then the studio is like SOOO small. The actual news studio is like the size of a 1 bedroom apartment in DC. All of the anchors and production staff are really sweet and nice. It seems like they really enjoy their jobs. Which comes off in their interaction. It's not like... oh they're super nice on camera and then when the feed goes dead they're like " I hate this place." Quite the opposite. I look forward to going back and doing more segments with Audra and the rest of the team there. Also, Live TV is no joke. Good thing I have so much experience from when I read the announcements on our school TV station at Richard Montgomery High School ;)

8/19/20 Back on August 4th, I was listening to Corinna…read moreDelgado on the radio. I heard her talking about Nancy Kerrigan and my mind traveled back to 1994. Nancy Kerrigan and Tonya Harding popped back into my mind as I thought about the craziness that followed. I remember reading up on these two women and my teacher suggested I write a report on them for one of my big homework projects. It was very easy for me. Personally I think my teacher just wanted to read what I would write. I was snapped out my thoughts when I heard Corinna Delgado laugh. It was a pleasant laugh. I quickly looked up the number, but wasn't expecting to get through. Boy was I wrong. I felt like a complete idiot because at the time, I did not know Corinna Delgado's name. I could hear the three second delay and my mind could not get use to that. Evidently this is something people in radio are use to. Corinna Delgado cleaned up the talk we had, but she also recorded, my version of Nancy screaming "Why Me? Why Anyone Why?" Even today, I don't think Nancy Kerrigan would see humor in her tragic event... still Second place is the first to lose, but if you ask yourself, this question, who really lost... Enough of that...I answer Corinna Delgado Timeline Question and got it right. I have listen to so many people call in over the phone for money, prizes or just to talk. I never expected to be on the radio myself, but I was. The only draw back is that I did not hear myself on the radio, because I was on the phone waiting for Corinna Delgado to come back on the phone. Today I now hold a bottle opener that says 9.47 The Drive, the Movie 1917 movie on blue ray and dvd and a 9.47 The Drive Pen. Very cool. I will admit at first I thought the package was sent to the wrong, but then realized this is the gift I won. I enjoy listening to the oldies music of the 80' and 90's. I will be listening even more now. I look forward to trying again to win something or make a request for song. Keep up the good work Corinna Delgado.

Dearly beloved We are gathered here today…read moreTo get through this thing called "life" -"Let's Go Crazy" by Prince (1984) 94.7 in Washington switched from The Globe, playing a classic rock format. In April 2009 they became 94.7 "Fresh FM" and then in 2018, they switched again. This time, 94.8 "The Drive" with a focus on rock, pop, and R&B hits from the 1980s, while also extending into the 1970s and 1990s. It is still WIAD. We caught them after a few taps of the seek button this afternoon as we were driving through the Virginia suburbs towards Dulles.

If you want to be berated all day for how everything you thought you knew about sports is false,…read morebecause you've never played the game, and then finish things off by giving a big middle finger to everything but the Redskins and golf golf golf golf, then WTEM is for you. How has sports reporting/entertainment become such an obnoxious jockocracy? Why do people think fans want to be told how little they know "because they never played the damn game"? Considering the fan base of all sports consists of people who have never played the game at the collegiate level or above, they should be a little less abrasive. Without these idolizing fans, pro athletes today would still be struggling to pay their medical bills or working blue-collar jobs in the offseason. Worst of all, these guys have obviously never played the game of sports reporting before it fell into their laps, with 90 percent of their comments seemingly made up of cliches or lifted out of NFL Films scripts. The biggest culprit of this grating trend is 980. Rich "Doc" Walker and Brian "B-Mitch" Mitchell really only know football, and thus it's the only sport they talk about with any sort of sincerity. The same goes for basketball and John "Coach" Thompson, who seems to have WTEM by the balls. Why else would he be permitted to run over hard breaks on the hour with ad nauseam talk about "kids these days and their Walkmans" and incoherent ramblings about race, while at the same time having a stock of rants contradicting everything he just said? "Smokin'" Al Koken is a breath of fresh air, but this might only be because he's the only non-jock, non-Redskin cult hero on the station. If I were him I would go home every damn day wishing I were dead, though. How can anyone from the outside of this elite athletic circle stand to put up with them all afternoon? Then, at the end of the day, you finally get some regular joes talking sports. However, Steve Czaban is like your raging conservative relative, always complaining about women's sports, soccer, hockey and taxes and counting down the hours before his next tee time. Andy Pollin is a little more palatable but seems like a jerk to callers (although maybe they deserve it for calling in). Fortunately, Mike Wise from The Post and Thom Loverro from The Times have been coming on with increasing frequency. The print columnists ad some legitimate insight to Pollin and Czaban's show and are much lest hateful and cynical than either of them. Yet somehow they've never played the game! In conclusion, I'd like to give WTEM one star. But I listen to it almost every day. I hate commuting.

Let me say, I COMPLETELY agree with everything Kevin says. He is dead on in his review…read more However, I find Szaban pretty funny, and I think the Koken/B-Mitch/JT show is funny as well. Doc Walker is a little light on content and high on "balla of the week" type shenanigans, but on the whole is a decent 2 hour show. I do like that Doc grills Skins GM Vinny Cerrato. Read Kevin's review because he is dead-on correct, but listen to the shows yourself and form your own opinion.
