With all the layoffs... this duo takes it on differently
Magic 94.1's former Morning hosts Bob and Wendy (Bob was PD as well) hit the streets.

Lester, do you know of these jocks? By the way how was your birthday?

Bob (Campbell) is a frequent member of this and the NCRADIO board. Wendy is one of the NC board moderators (the gat).
So, sort of.
We've never met, but the paths have crossed.
And the birthday was good, thank you! What the pre-sleep hangover helper didn't get, the powder doughnuts and Dr. Pepper fixed this morning.

Re: With all the layoffs... this duo takes it on differently
You know what is really cool about this board? We bitch and moan and call each other names all the damn time. But every time somebody gets shit on by this business we all have a passion for, we all root for them to go on to bigger and better things.
Thanks for the many kind words. I've been fortunate in that the last 2 times I got whacked I got a better job almost immediately. While that may not happen as quickly this time, I hope to keep avoiding real work for a few more years.
Now, enough of the nice shit...you all suck.
So, has anybody seen the chimp ripping the woman's face off yet?

Re: With all the layoffs... this duo takes it on differently
I hate to hear when people lose their jobs. Even if it's Bob!
Perhaps you can move here and be the "fluffer" for Nunley!
Seriously, best of luck in finding a new gig!

Re: With all the layoffs... this duo takes it on differently
My hands are WAY too big to be Nunley's fluffer.
And I think we all know, at this stage of the broadcast business, talent, or lack thereof, has almost no bearing on employability.
Damn, I wish I hadn't flunked that ass-kissing class in college.

Never too late to enroll again. There's tons of Gen Y'ers who'll tutor you in the arts of ass-kissing should you need any help!

Re: With all the layoffs... this duo takes it on differently
So my morning show is out of work...sort of. We did a charity appearance for Make a Wish foundation today, doing the "celebrity waiter". To make it more fun, we had t-shirts made( or my partner actually made) saying "Former Celebrities...Bob And Wendy".
Packed restaurant (Sweet Potatoes, Clay, downtown Winston, great food, try it) got a big kick out of the shirts, as did the Make a Wish Director.
The nice part, Make a Wish went out of their way to track us down after we got fired so they could invite us. Good times, and you never know, the restaurant owner said they needed some wait staff....hmmmm....career change...hmm??

Sounds like you and Wendy had a good following Bob. Are you looking to stay in market only?
