(misc) "It all started at a 50 watt radio station"

[danny burstein]

[Crains NY correction]

Correction, March 18, 2020: Smaldone's college radio station [a] was a
50,000-watt station, not a 50-watt station. She also began working in the
voice over industry at the age of 19, not after her work at WOR.

[a] referring to Valerie Smaldone and her experience
at Fordham University's WFUV

I’m bemused & a little Irked that Cranes is talking about this newfangled thing called podcasting which is a wonderful way for people to extend their carriers. <Cranky old man mode on> I remember being in studios at the NPR mothership in 1999-2000 when Bob Boílen would come in with as stack of analog reels to mix segments for a little side project he had going called All Songs Considered . At the time, there was no such term as podcasting and this was put on the NPR website as a show you could stream.  Eventually with the development of RSS feeds and iPods, podcasting was created and the rest, as they say, is history. </Cranky old man mode off>
