How did MyOutdoorBuddy Radio get its start?
In August of 2010, a good duck-hunting friend and fellow outdoor writer, Ryan Sabalow of the Redding Record Searchlight, referred MyOutdoorBuddy to Carl and Linda Bott of KCNR 1460 AM in Redding. KCNR wanted to have an early Saturday morning outdoor show on their schedule. Since they knew Ryan was an outdoor blogger, they thought he might be willing to create and host such a show. Ryan, however, could not take on such an assignment due to his already heavy workload so he suggested I give Carl and Linda a call.
To say I pounced on the opportunity would not be an understatement. In fact, nearly a year before, I had mentioned doing just such a program to Carl and Linda when we met by chance at a Redding Restaurant. I sincerely appreciate the chance they have given me to do such a show, and I will try to make them proud.
Preparing a pre-recorded program required some learning. Fortunately, thanks to some cool advice from Bob Belongie of Belongie Entertainment Enterprises, who is also a broadcast engineer at KCNR, I downloaded a program off the web called Audacity. Audacity is an amazing program. With it you can cut and paste sound just as you do words in a word processor, and there are literally hundreds of tools in the program to help you make sound come out as it should. That and the construction of a simple sound studio box and the purchase of a Blue Snowball microphone has allowed me to record and edit the program from my office.
I hope you enjoy the show. We’re learning so the program will get better as we interview more fishing and hunting experts and fine tune our production skills. It’s not easy to do a one-hour radio program each week but since I have always been a fan of radio, it’s been a labor of love.
What I also found interesting about this coincidence was yet another coincidence. Justin Wolff of “AnglerWest TV,” the producer of outdoor videos for Comcast, and now Versus, and someone with whom I have collaborated, began his broadcasting career in Redding many years ago by doing an outdoor show. When Justin told me that, I was surprised to say the least. All I can say is, I hope I can even come close the standards for reporting set by him and broadcasters such as Bob Simms’ who does the “The Outdoor Show” over KPFK/Sacramento on Saturday mornings. I’ve always enjoyed their work and I know you do, too. So when you’re traveling I-5 between Red Bluff and Shasta Lake City, please tune us in. I’ll do my best to pack the show with information you can use when heading for your fishing, hunting or outdoor destination. That’s from 6-7 a.m. on KCNR 1460 AM every Saturday. So long for now, I think I’m getting a bite.
