Brace yourself for a couple minutes of pure awesome… okay it might be mostly awesome with some fantastic mixed in for a little flavour but you get the idea. It’s been decided. Gabrielle and I are packing up the car and hitting the road for a 20 day cross country (Canada) radio road trip. However, it’s more then just that but you’ll have to watch the video for the details.

We have mapped out the route, we’ve spent countless hours doodling on pieces of paper and more importantly we have a long list of names we don’t want to call our project. Keep checking back to this blog as we continue on our journey for updates, schedules, polls, contests and hopefully even some prizes!

-Mitch & Gabrielle

This is my new side project! I’m super excited about it. I have never gone on a road trip before, besides Disneyland which doesn’t count. Make sure to follow that blog too (Radiotrip) and of course on Twitter as well @radiotripcanada. Also, if you’re a radio pro and want to participate in this project let me know! The idea is that we are going to try and meet as many radio people as possible and interview them, so that by the end of the trip we will have a documentary!

I’ll keep ya posted!

To make a radio documentary about what it takes for two radio grads to break into the industry… the runner up goal- to get a full time job.

Sure Shots…

I have always had a passion for music, however at a young-ish age I realized that my passion wasn’t so much for making music (sorry for wasting your time band teachers) it was for listening to music. Now I like to think of this as more then just a hobby, because eventually one job that I would love to have is the title of Music Director (perhaps in neon lights above my desk… or on a business card, that’s cool too).
