My last post here was January 7th, 2011.  To say the least, I have been delinquent in keeping up with my posts, and yet I have been incredibly busy in keeping up with all that is happening in Sarasota and beyond.

Since May 2, 2011, I have been broadcasting a new show on a new radio station.  Sarasota Talk Radio is the place I call home - WTMY radio 1280 AM.  You will find me there weekdays from 3pm - 6pm talking to not only the people that make Sarasota everything it is, but everything it is going to be.

My new co-host is Lauren Rudd. Most of you know him from the newspaper where he has had a syndicated column for the past 24 years called - Street Wise.  Locally, he his column appears every Friday in the Sarasota herald Tribune.  Now you can hear him everyday with me.  He is on between the hours of 4pm-5pm, where he covers Wall Street and how it impacts our daily lives.

The great thing about my job is that I get to see a part of our community that doesn't lie among the headlines or is enveloped in the talking points.  I get to meet people that bring their own unique twist to what makes us great.  I also get to talk to the people who politically shape the framework of our community.

So tune in and follow along.  Or call in and participate.  Open dialogue is always encouraged.

www.SarasotaTalkRadio.com  is also broadcast on the Internet.

It's a new adventure for me.  I hope you follow along.
