The Adventure That Is The WNY Progress Report
February 18th, 2006 by Cliff

Wow, it is good to back on WHLD 1270 AM, but boy, am I wiped out. Whew.

On the technical difficulties: It happens. OK, having the tape delay feed coming into the headphones was tricky (obviously)… existing simultaneously in the present and 10 seconds in the past is tough, and boy do I apologize to Judy Einach for the repeated “HEY JUDY’S” you were subjected to.

But we can all laugh about it now, and that is good.


To Nelson Starr, composer of our most excellent music: thanks, and I promise you that we will play your new “news theme” next week. That polka business was a gag that didn’t come off quite right, a wee miscue. Sorry man but we will do right by you next week.

Christa is an awesome news anchor and a most welcome addition to the show. You are the bomb.

On Brian Brown Cashdollar: Not only is he the father of the feast, he’s bloody Montgomery Scott, saviour of the show, the man who cured our tape delay woes. Brian is the MAN. Not THE MAN, the MAN- come on now, you know what I am talking about people.

Our chat with Dennis Yedwab, the MAN from Media Matters, was great, a bonafide pleasure, and after our technical woes a reminder of why we’re doing the show, and why Kevin and I are doing the show. An excellent conversation, and I thank Dennis, and Media Matters for America from the bottom of my heart.

Mark Poloncarz is a good sport as always, and I thank him for coming back for our first effort since we’re back from the grave. Thanks to Christa also for pulling double duty for our WNY Coalition for Progress roundtable.

And thanks once again to everybody who had anything to do with the radio show. You all rock.

Until next Saturday’s adventure, 9 AM on WHLD 1270 AM…
