Our visit to The X

Rob and Bawwwwwwwwwwwb

It's been a busy, yet exciting, year for us thus far.  We'll be updating the blog to share recent/current events and projects with you in the coming weeks. Until then, we'd like to thank Bob McLaughlin from The X Morning Show (105.9 FM) for taking the time out of his busy schedule to give us a tour of the studio. He invited us to the studio after meeting him at the 6k on the Busway (link to blog post), where he was emcee for the event. It was nice to meet the man behind the mic and very interesting to see how the show is choreographed.

In an age of pre-programmed radio stations like BOB FM and internet radio stations like Pandora, it's easy to forget about the signature touch a radio host can give to a listening experience. Similar to photography, the talent and skills required to provide a unique experience to a client are immeasurable and irreproducable by automated technology.

If you've yet to listen to Tim and Bob, tune into 105.9 FM and give them a try. You will not be disappointed!  They're hilarious and a great kick start to the work day. The highlight of our week is a Wednesday morning segment called "Dumb, Dumber, and Dumberest" where they playback funny phone calls and news soundbites from the previous week for listeners to vote on.

It is nearly impossible to listen to these guys without picking up a few catch phrases to use throughout the day. Thanks to them we expect to hear a very special sound bite (you'll have to listen to their show to hear it) after every Black Keys song now.
