Let’s take a peek at what went down this week on the radio.
- So much great music!
- There’s a company that made a phone for your pet! It’s around $90, a little box that attaches to the collar of your dog or cat. You can track them on it, play music for them, or call them, and the best part, there’s a mic on it so they can talk (or bark) back to you.
- A global survey said you should stop saying “Happy New Year” to people by January 10th.
- According to HR directors the number one reason people lose their job in January is because of something they did or said at the office/company Holiday party! (that’s the only reason to go, to hear and see the stuff your coworkers do)
- A start-up in Canada created a prototype of airbags for pants that can detect when you fall and inflate in a split-second. They claim the pants can sense the difference between a fall and just sitting down on the couch. They’re about $1500.
- Samsung has unveiled a 130-inch TV called ‘The Wall.’ It’s more than 5 feet tall and 9 and a half feet wide. (can you imagine playing GTA on that?!?!)
It was a great week, thanks for letting me part of yours! Have a fantastic weekend and let’s do it again next week. As always, THANKS for listening!

Happy New Year???
Be careful with your “Happy New Year” wishes to people. A new survey says there are specific dates that we need to stop saying ‘happy new year’. If you’re texting someone you need to stop by January 3rd (you missed that window). If you’re going to wish a co-worker Happy New Year you have until […]

I missed you!
It’s great to be back after a little vacation! I hope you had a happy holiday season. Over the years there’s been times when I thought I shouldn’t come back from time off on a Monday, that maybe starting back at it would be better on a Tuesday or Wednesday but nonetheless here I am. […]
