In this podcast I discuss how anyone with passion can still make it. All you need is undying passion, extreme hunger, and a positive outlook. My Mantra for success in this ten year time span was, and still is: "Failure is not an option." You're going to hear how I created a multi-million dollar company, and how it went from top to the very bottom. Crazy mistakes and a crazy time. If Colleges were handing out MBA's for work experience, then I would have one hanging on my wall! Without Life experiences we would never be able to progress in life. I think you'll find it interesting and if you know me from radio in Washington DC and Atlanta GA, this will be a totally different u-turn in life. something that will probably happen to you some time in your life. --- This episode is sponsored by · Anchor: The easiest way to make a podcast. https://anchor.fm/app

South of the Border is located right on the North Carolina/South Carolina border. Way down on my luck between radio jobs, I sold glamour shots all over the southeast.

Why in the hell would we actually do a live morning show remote at a person's home and babysit their kids? Why would we collect live insects on the air and give away a prize for that? And why would we ever be so stupid to do a four hour morning show from the top of the Washington Monument in the fog?

I was doing newscasts the afternoon Elvis Died. UPI wire services sent the news as a FLASH which is higher priority than a bulletin, and it was! Listen to Scott Woodside stumble through the beginning of the recording. You'll hear the wrong age given because UPI sent us the news via teletype with the wrong age. Everyone in the world was giving the wrong age because that's what we were fed. Listen to tributes from Capricorn record president Phil Walden, Music producer Buddy Buie, and more. This was recorded on the fly as it actually happened.

Months after the Berlin wall came down and was cleaned up, Rock group Pink Floyd decided to do their Another Brick in the Wall concert right in the middle of where the wall used to be. We flew over and covered the entire event. More of a vacation than work! Got in trouble again.
News coming in that the Berlin Wall was coming down in November of 1989. At the time our morning show on Atlanta's Z93 radio was losing listeners. So we launched a hare brained idea to fly to Berlin and do our show live. You won't even believe where the pieces of the Berlin wall that I came back with came from!
We were always trying to think of ways to self promote the morning show since the radio station spent zero dollars on promotion. Anyway here's the behind the scenes info on how and why the song was created. You will have had to live in Atlanta for a long time to really appreciate the lyrics. --- This episode is sponsored by · Anchor: The easiest way to make a podcast. https://anchor.fm/app
