Days Thirteen and Fourteen (Hours 60 - 70)

Monday February 16, 2015

This day was quite memorable because I messed up while I was helping produce the show. I put someone on the show that I knew wasn't going to be an asset to the show. But I've learned from my mistake. I also helped Adler with the television production behind the scenes. 

Wednesday February 18, 2015 

This day started out as a normal day, where I began as a recorder for the show. I helped produce at the top of the second hour where we had a special guest call in....Rand Paul. The guys asked him some very important political questions and very importantly if he is going to run for President in 2016.

We also had guest stars at the top of the last hour, Bethany and Andy Phillips. Bethany is a Country-gospel singer and Andy is a former professional baseball player. They came to the show to tell their testimonies and promote Bethany's new album. 

Days Eleven and Twelve (Hours 50 - 60)

Day Eleven - February 9, 2015

This day I arrived at the studio at 4:45 a.m. and started the early show with Speedy, Helmsey, and Greg. After more interns arrived, I worked with Adler on cameras. Mainly, I helped switch the cameras from person to person depending on who's talking. I also helped with graphics by giving the audience a picture of what the guys are talking about on the show. I learned what keys to press in order for the picture to show up through the Heartland Network and what keys worked the graphics on the bottom of the screen. For example, their Facebook and Twitter accounts and their website.

Day Twelve - February 11, 2015

The first time since I've been interning at the Rick and Bubba Show...I was late because apparently I kept hitting snooze on my phone and didn't realize it until ten minutes before I had to leave. Franticly throwing on clothes and fixing my hair, I remembered what one of the past interns to me...never be late. Speeding and putting on make-up is definitely dangerous at 4:30 in the morning. I arrived ten minutes late, but realized that no one really noticed because we were having technical difficulties for the early show. That made it a little better. While the show wasn't on air, I realized how important the early show is to listeners. I had many calls asking about the guys and making sure they were okay, which I thought was awesome. It just proves how important a radio newscast is when you have listeners who work that early in the morning. Once the show was up and running, I worked with Adler more on graphics for the live television show. This is for people who watch the show through Ustream, or the iHeart radio app.

Days Nine and Ten (hours 40 - 50)

Day Nine - February 2, 2015

Day nine was a normal day at the office except it was the morning after the Super Bowl which was a huge topic for the show. The topic was popular for The Rick and Bubba audience. For me, I rotated with the other interns on the phones, recording the show, and operating the cameras. I also got to learn more about what Adler does for the show. He is the television producer. I watched how he puts video together for the website and social media accounts.

Day Ten - February 4, 2015 

I started the day out in the call room taking calls for the early show and the Rick and Bubba Show. I also recorded and operated cameras for the show. This day was probably a more boring day, but everything went smoothly as far as all that I had to do.
