Get ready for an exciting journey as we embark on a new path together!
Bridging the Gap and Embracing Change
You've taught me that less distance between us is a blessing. When I ventured into this independent writing world, you joined me, and that support means the world. It's incredible to see my work reaching more readers than ever before.
A Personal Connection
Here, it's just you and me. You're not just a reader; you're my partner in this adventure. I wake up each day feeling grateful for the opportunity to create content that resonates with you. And now, I'm taking a bold step to bring us even closer.
The Entrepreneurial Leap
After nearly two decades with the same radio station, I'm ready to leap into a new chapter. A new year symbolizes new beginnings, and I'm excited to share my plans with you. I aim to expand my reach, especially within the Pac-12 footprint, and engage with you across various digital platforms.
A Radio Revolution
My daily radio show currently reaches seven stations in Oregon and Southern Washington. For the past week, we've been airing "Best of the BFT" shows, featuring recorded interviews with sports legends like Bill Walton and Mike Leach. But I've been on a mission - laying the groundwork for a fresh broadcast endeavor that promises a more direct and authentic connection with you.
The Power of Independence
Traditional media has its place, but our journey together has proven that independence offers freedom and authenticity. It allows us to explore in-depth stories without external influences. I want to take you on this journey, bringing you closer to the heart of the narrative.
The Struggle of Consolidation
We've witnessed the consolidation of newspapers, radio, and TV stations, leading to staffing cuts and compromised content. Talented individuals are fighting the good fight, but corporate entities are squeezing the life out of these industries. Too many have given up, choosing a slow death over a fight for survival.
The Exhilaration of Entrepreneurship
Before I took this leap, I spoke with small business owners whose eyes lit up when they shared their experiences. Now, I understand that feeling - the fear and exhilaration of being in control. You, my readers, are not just an audience; you're the reason I wake up each day with purpose.
A Personal Thank You
You've supported me in ways I never imagined. When I picked up my daughter from college, your support covered the gas. That's the power of this community.
A New Year, A New Adventure
As we bid farewell to the "Year of the Snake," I'm shedding the old to make way for the new. I'll share more details soon, so stay tuned. If you're ready to join me on this exciting path, here's how:
