A considerate compliment II

A listener once called me while I was on the air at KNJZ and said, "I just wanted you to know that I enjoy your commentary."

I thanked her for the compliment.  It reminded me that even when you're just back announcing songs from a predetermined playlist, you can still reach listeners by injecting your unique personality and sense of humor into your announcing style.

That's the difference between being a generic talking head and a broadcaster.
