Unit 2
Radio times
How old are you? the radio studio manager at WXBN looked down at me.
Fifteen, I said.
And you want a job in radio? Shouldnt you be at school? He asked.
How could I explain? Ive always loved the radio. When I was about four or five years old, I remember sitting close to the radio in the living room, listening to my favourite programmes, and to the voices of my favourite presenters. It seemed that they were speaking to me in person. At the age of nine, I asked for jobs in small radio stations.
As I grew older, my interest in radio grew. One day I leant about Internet radio. Once a week. I played my favourite music from my fathers computer to the listeners, talked about life at school, and then closed down and did my homework.
Soon my friends at junior high school started to listen, and then they wanted to help. We prepared the weekly programmes, articles about music, sports news, jokes and the weather report (I did this by looking out of the window).
Ok, come with me, the WXBN manager said. I sat down in the studio, in front of a microphone. He was in another room, behind the glass wall.
Ok, lets do a sound check. Just tell me what you had for breakfast.
All radio presenters begin work with the same question.
I had eggs, fruit and some milk.
Ok, thats great! the man behind the glass said.
And this was how my first real job in radio began.
