NSYNC at "The Ralph", totally epic.
When I was in first grade my mom got me out of school early and took me to the store to buy the Brittney Spears, Oops I did It Again CD. It was the year 2000.
When I first became a talent on Alternative Buffalo in May of 2017, we held our big summer festival Kerfuffle in June. After only being on-air a few weeks, Nik Rivers threw me in to interviewing the Mowglis. The band is from California...and my first question was "how's the weather in California"... They laughed with me but I was as nervous and embarrassed as I ever could be.
Back when I was a middayer on Buffalo's Star 102.5, we had just built a "fishbowl" studio in the front lobby so listeners could see us when we were on-air. I didn't know it worked like a remote access, and went on the air without switching the station over. I had to run to the other side of the building to turn my mic off after 2 full minutes of dead air. At the time I was the youngest in the building on the air, and felt like a total rookie.
