WXXI & my favorite t-shirt

Yesterday I was very excited to be a guest on Bob Smith's WXXI radio show 1370 Connection. I was on the show with Mark Frisk to talk about business and social media in lieu of the upcoming Social Media and Communications Symposium at RIT on Thursday.

It was my first time on WXXI so I wore the NPR shirt Aaron got me for my birthday specially. I am a big NPR fan - it's the first thing I turn on in the morning. I listen on the way to work and the way home, sometimes sitting in the office parking lot or my driveway to hear the end of story "Driveway Moment". I have radios in the kitchen, living room and bedroom so I can listen at home. I frequently catch stories I miss on the iPad NPR app. So as you can see, being an NPR geek this is one of my favorite t-shirts.

Apparently it's Justin Timberlake's too - check out this hiliarious article "Ten Speculative Reasons Justin Timberlake Might Be Wearing This NPR T-Shirt"

radio

While we were on our beach holiday, Aaron and I celebrated our third anniversary. While I stuck strictly to the traditional third anniversary gift of leather and gave Aaron a new pair of leather flip flops... he got me a radio. 

Recently we replaced our big stereo with a small iPod speaker dock. Without the stereo I couldn't listen to any local radio stations. I wanted a little radio that looked cute on the kitchen counter, so I could listen to NPR while I cooked. Aaron found this really nice, retro looking Tivoli Model One radio. It's perfect. (of course with the oven still sitting in the dining room it's listening to NPR while I paint the kitchen walls)
