#WHAS100 🎧 Radioactive radio rebels rock! Meet Mandy, Mo, Di, Joe, Bob, Johnny Z, and Adolph!
WHAS is the most powerful radio signal in Kentucky. It can be streamed worldwide but its over-the-air signal pierces atop most of the contiguous 48 United States. WHAS Radio will turn 100 next July, pumping out news, interviews, and information 24/7. Whether we're talking to Dr. Dunkenstein, Dr. Fauci, or Dr. Pepper, we are delivering audio and video content to keep our community informed. Thanks for hanging with us for our first century! That's our boy Ian Vertrees above. He's a deejay on WQMF and the daily producer and voice contributor on the Terry Meiners Show. The iHeart machine moves because it is fueled by strong employees. #WHAS100 🎧🎙 @MandyConnell is one of the greatest talk show talents in America, once dominating midday
When media companies cut costs, senior editors are the first to go
Is it racist imaging or shoddy graphics work? It's likely the latter but the entire media market suffers from even a scant trace of the former. I wonder why they didn't use our professional headshots...🤔🤔🤔@WDRBNews pic.twitter.com/ldupshQQZg — Timothy Findley, Jr. (@TimFindleyJr) November 13, 2021 Our media business is filled with underpaid young "journalists" who lack depth of perspective. Nonetheless, this unbalanced imagery is preposterously ignorant. Where is management oversight? Wow. Debating whether this is explicit or implicit bias. Either way, this is a typical narrative. @WDRBNews producers, reporters, editor should all be required to take bias training and someone at the top should apologize for this. https://t.co/ALVum1uk1Y — Sadiqa (@SadiqaReynolds) November 14, 2021 Media companies have cut payrolls so severely over the past decade that news employees
What’s this? An actual funny sketch from Saturday Night Live! 😲
The November 6, 2021 edition of Saturday Night Live had a wonderfully relatable sketch that did not take a political stance or insult middle Americans. They punched Spectrum Cable in the face with a wickedly funny sendup of the difficulty of trying to cancel cable. Enjoy. 📞🙄 BONUS SKETCH Here's the cold open for SNL that features a vaccine-resistant Aaron Rodgers and a brand new character playing Donald Trump. In previous years, Trump was played by actor Alec Baldwin, who is now spiraling in dismay after shooting and killing a co-worker on the set of his film RUST. A prop gun handed to Baldwin contained at least one live round, killing cinematographer Halyna Hutchins.
Burnt. 🔥 For good. Nonetheless, John Schnatter still believes he will return to lead Papa John’s. 🙏 #PapaBless 🙄
"The morning after detailing is martyrdom, Schnatter wants to show off his mansion." In a new Bloomberg interview, deposed Papa John's pizza company founder John Schnatter still yammers about his delusional dream of returning to lead the company. It will never happen. Schnatter laughably spotlighted himself instead of pizza in Papa John's TV commercials for years. Once company directors started easing him out of the ads to focus on showing the product, Schnatter got his feelings hurt and created his own commercials. He paid to run them in certain markets to "prove" that viewers wanted to see him, not just pizza. To bolster his on screen presence, Schnatter courted popular sports personalities to share the stage with him on Papa John's commercials. NFL
WHAS interview with author of “Cokie Roberts – A Life Well Lived”
I enjoyed chatting on WHAS Radio with ABC News reporter Steve Roberts, the widower of NPR and ABC News icon Cokie Roberts. She was a trailblazer in broadcasting, raised in the powerful political family of Lindy & Hale Boggs. Her political insights grew from being deeply entrenched in Washington life from her preteen years forward. She died two years ago and Steve has written a book to honor her incredible legacy. Steve says writing and talking about his wife keeps her spirit alive for future generations to enjoy. We discussed Cokie's influencer status for women in media, her personal life, and Steve's affinity for his mother-in-law. AUDIO We never got around to discussing Cokie's tombstone, but as you see below, it opens up a

More WHAS100 personalities share the air to honor Kentucky’s first radio station
Those are some good dudes. Joe Donovan, Doug McElvein, Van Vance, Wayne Perkey, Jack Fox, Milton Metz, and I stood for that photo in 1993. They're all outstanding broadcasters who helped maintain WHAS Radio's legendary status as one of America's giants in news/talk. Joe and Milton are gone. Doug McElvein was on the radio last month and can be found in an earlier post on this website. The other fellows will all sit for interviews in the near future. I've been speaking with one prominent WHAS voice every week leading up to the station's 100th birthday in July 2022. I LOVED catching up with my friend @terrymeiners on @840WHAS radio today. We talked about family, @JudeRedfield, #Covid_19 my life in tv news and my
Kentucky beats Florida 🏈 couches are burned 🔥 Beasman is juiced😼
A party in Lexington 35 years in the making … #ForTheTeam Chapter Five 😼🏈 pic.twitter.com/c3h3ZQ0Nd1 — Kentucky Football (@UKFootball) October 7, 2021 KENTUCKY FOOTBALL IS A THING! The Kentucky Wildcats jumped from #31 to #16 in the Associated Press poll after a hard fought victory over #10 Florida. It was Kentucky's first home victory over the Gators since 1986. Street party couch burnings went on until the wee hours. UK is now 5-0 and welcoming a struggling LSU squad into Kroger Field on Saturday night. In a rare departure from oddsmaker behavior, Kentucky is a 2 point favorite. Finish the play. Finish the game. Finish what you start. Do that, and anything can happen. pic.twitter.com/XVBvTWTo9F — LSU Football (@LSUfootball) October 7, 2021 THE BEASMAN florida goes down LATER GATOR! LATER GATOR! LATER
⛳ Wade Hampton golf course is prettier than Augusta. Fight me.
I just spent a few days on the Wade Hampton golf club course near Cashiers, North Carolina. This Tom Fazio design is stunning with every sight line. The fairways and greens are exceedingly challenging and immaculate. I've been lucky enough to play Augusta National on consecutive days, too, and I found the Wade Hampton experience superior. Augusta has incredible golf history but WADE is numbingly beautiful. Wow! See all of the Wade Hampton course with hole-by-hole descriptions here Enjoyed meeting @CJBunge at Wade Hampton golf club in North Carolina yesterday. He saw my @UofLFootball hat and said “I’m from Lexington and fighting the urge to twist my hand.” 😂 I assured him that it was quite OK. Good guy! Incredible golf track! ⛳️
