Actual time spent in class this week flew by, but the time left after class felt like weeks. That’s probably why one guy on my floor loaded his car last night. He walked from his last class straight to his car. Should have booked my flight for Saturday instead of Sunday, but oh well.

I was going to blog about my radio show, Buckey & Boe with Pat Myers he is Buckey and I’m Boe, because we had President Hess on Wednesday night. But I didn’t because I had a paper due Thursday morning. Not procrastinating but fine tweaking and editing too late into the night. I’ll talk about the show now since I didn’t have a chance then.

Success all over!!!! The online streaming website finally worked and we had more listeners. Thanks to all those who tuned in.

Yeah That’s President Hess taking a selfie

Our twitter page was blowing up with retweets and mentions from students and faculty. We asked President Hess about his mission and goals while president of Wabash. We even talked about his favorite hobbies, sports teams and taste in music. His favorite artist of all time is “Bob Dylan” and one of his favorite songs of all time is “8-Mile.” Surprised, so were Buckey and I. Talking to him while off air was even more interesting. We talked a bit about our respective plans for careers and life after college. A bit personal for the usual way we run our show, “Anything Flies.” It was still great and thanks to those who tuned in.

We are going to have Dr.Cherry on the week we come back from Thanksgiving break. Dean Raters will most likely be on next semester and then we can start pushing in some students to come on air with us. We are trying to build up rave and a face for the Buckey and Boe Show. Once it happens, professors and students are going to ask us if they can come on. But in the mean time we are working at it.

I’m very glad that Wabash has this opportunity for their students. Yeah maybe other schools have radio stations and even a TV station, but only at Wabash is it so accessible. I am sure that if I were at IU or DePauw, I might not even see where the radio station is at let alone run one of my own. But I am even more glad to have a friend that puts up with me and even then still goes on air.

The friends you make here, you will argue with them day in and day out. You’ll even have a day you did or said something that was selfish and regret it for a long time. But you’ll find out that these guys are more than just friends. When you do something you regret you understand they are like brothers. That old question my grandma would ask, “Tell me who your friends are and I will tell you who you are?” it is quite true and when you find those friends, you will learn a bit more about yourself.

Thanks Nick and Pat. Fratris Amorem
Wabash always Fights, and Always means Always!!!
