This is the hallway where the studios are located. My studio is the second one down (you can tell it by the second little On-Air light above the door. The next door is Chris Marion’s studio. And the door facing the camera at the end of the hall is the Talk Studio where Hallerin Works. You have to keep this hallway clear around five and five-thirty- because Hallerin and Chris will come barrelling in at the last minute. I get to work about four-thirty.

This is Chris Marion in his studio. He handles all of the production in the show, and controls the commercials and telephones, plus screens the calls. Chris is one of the best at his job I have ever seen. Period. He deals with three, sometimes four computer screens. One shows Hallerin which callers are on-line, the one with the color squares contains all of the program elements and commercials. Plus, Chris has a laptop with a zillion songs on it.

This is my control board. You can see where the meter on the left was removed by engineering for repair. I didn’t want to look at an empty hole all day long, so I mounted a fire engine picture in its place. The black square on the left is a timer, and there is another timer on my right, plus a clock. Chris says engineering might as well take the timers out, too.

I have one program that is very important. It handles my wire services, internet, script writing, recording, and teleprompter (which you see in this photo from last week). I can play recorded audio clips by clicking on a mouse, or by tapping the space bar.

This is the view from my seat. through one double-pane glass into Chris Marion’s studio, then through a second double pane glass into Hallerin’s studio. We have a telephone intercom we can use to talk to one another. But mainly, Chris and I just yell through the window.

Here’s Hallerin in his main studio, doing what he does best. He dresses like this every day. I wonder if he sleeps in a suit and tie.



This is my little cubicle in the corner of the newsroom.

This is Hallerin’s office door. I am not allowed inside unless I am invited in. He won’t let me touch his stuff, either.

Hope you enjoyed the photos. I’ll try to get some more interesting ones from the station and post them, soon.
