Wonderful news, Rob. Tell me a good date and time for you and I’ll arrange with my producer. We can put you on AirPods and I’ll sit in my ‘studio’ with Jirard and my mc. I’d like to ask you 3-4 questions and let you roll. I’ll want to find out about how you became a radio news journalist, how you’ve seen it evolve and where you see broadcast media headed in the future. I’m sure I’ll be able to pour a little salt and pepper on things as well. Rob, you will be my best guest yet. I’ll want you to talk about Healthy Word Salad and Substack. We can then tie all this into how new media has given rise to the gathering storm of authoritarian rule. Sound good? You’re awesome, Rob!
Hi Rob - What a story! After all you disclosed it's amazing that you survived all of that. Thanks to your Good Samaritan. Seemingly the savior of your life. He's like the Lone Ranger who appeared for a moment to save the day and then was gone. I believe that many of us have looked back and found someone in our lives who was pivotal in our lives then rode off never to be heard from again yet always remembered.
I enjoy this format, Rob. You write and then you record for distribution? Is that how this works? Do you do it at the same time. Tell me how you do this. I love this I think. I'm trying to figure out how this Substack thing works. It's overwhelming to me.
As for podcasting it's usually done with a guest. It's usually visual as with Joe Rogan and others. But your missive here is a podcast in and of itself once it's recorded and sent out. And they're anywhere from 30 to 60 minutes.
If you heard my latest 'Disciples of Democracy' podcast and appreciated it then I'd like for you to be my guest in my next episode of 'Disciples of Democracy'. We could talk about how traditional media has been rendered obsolete and has turned our world upside down. Especially as it relates to our politics both local, national and global. And figure out ways to get our democracy back. Newsom is just beginning to figure that out now.
Would you do it with me? The key to a great podcast is 2-fold: 1) Have an angle (as a journalist you know this to be true) and 2) Have a great producer (which I do). He and I will go anywhere
to set this up (your house? my house" your airpods?). Let me know if this works for you. If you finished with my Episode 6 and others, then let me know your opinion. For my part, I can do better. Listening to you and your approach is already making me better. And you'd be a feather in my cap.
Hi, thanks for reading and commenting! While I've witnessed and experienced stepparent physical abuse, this particular case is fictional. Luke, however, is based on a real person I met. And I'd love to be on your podcast.
