Interview With Dave Glover

Recently, I had the opportunity to briefly interview Dave Glover from "The Dave Glover Show" on 97.1 FM Talk for a project in my COM 130 class. The following quote is the portion that I used for my presentation discussing the 'pros' and 'cons' of being in the radio industry: “I can’t even begin to tell ya how much I hated working in radio at first. I mean, I used to be a lawyer out in the real world before giving radio a shot, and it really sucked when I first got started. I had no social life which stunk for a guy that always wanted to hit the bars and play in his band. I had little free time to spend with my friends and family, especially when they stuck me on a graveyard shift. Then there’s always the money, or lack of it in my case. But always remember that there are a lot of good things that can come out of getting into the business. In my case, I have a lot of creative freedoms that allow me express myself on the air. It also gives me a chance to make a difference in people’s lives. Most importantly, I have a hell of a lot of fun doing what I do.”
