## Resource

Fresh off a nasty Nashville ice storm, Johnny B, Jay, and Jim unpack winter chaos, government blame, and why people still run to live talk radio when things get dangerous. From Phil Valentine tornado stories and Sheryl Crow calling out NES, to THC cookie misadventures, potholes, the Cherokee Nation fixing roads, and the slow death of music radio, this one is equal parts war story and radio therapy. Highlights: – Ice storms, tornadoes, and staying on the air when everyone else is stuck – Sheryl Crow vs NES, cloud-seeding conspiracies, and Trump as scapegoat – TDOT, busted axles, and how a tribe fixed what a city wouldn’t – THC cookies, on-air paranoia, and learning your limits – Being undervalued by management and realizing your leverage in radio – Why talk radio may be the last moat left in broadcasting Follow Johnny B: https://www.facebook.com/john.e.bozeman Follow Jay Harper: https://www.facebook.com/harperjeff Follow Jim: www.jmvos.com Circling The Drain is produced by It's Your Show dot Co www.itsyourshow.co
