Quite frankly, there is very little that this week's special guest hasn't dabbled in at some point . . .but, chances are you'll recognize the name, thanks to her nationally-syndicated radio program!! I'm delighted to welcome Pem Pfisterer Clark, host of "Wedding Planning with Pem", heard on Henderson's WSON Radio, and many other stations across the Commonwealth and beyond! Pem is also a licensed wedding officiant, who offers several scenic settings which are uniquely suited to accommodate intimate ceremonies. If that weren't enough, she is an excellent source of tuxedo and suit rentals for special occasions...and, she skillfully teaches art to children of all ages through her downtown Henderson studio of art instruction. Join me and Pem as we discuss the discovery of her artistic talents, her masterful works of art that have been sold both nationally and internationally, and the specifics of the classes she regularly teaches. We also detail her tuxedo/suit rental business, her splendid wedding venues, and the creation/evolution of her radio show (which is still going strong after 25 years!). Lastly, we touch on a podcast she co-hosts with long-time WSON News Director Bill Stephens Stark known as "Around Town with Stark and Clark". For inquiries regarding any and all aspects of my conversation with Pem, don't hesitate to call or text her at 270-454-8181.

This week, I'm super stoked to be joined by one of my former radio partners from Western Kentucky University's student-run station (WWHR)!! Meet Amanda Hagerman, affectionately known by her radio name "Lucky", who I teamed up with for a radio show the second semester of my Freshman year. Lucky's most recent media venture came in the realm of television, where she handled production duties behind the scenes at WDRB (Fox 41) in Louisville. Come along as she and I look back on the fun we had together on the Bowling Green airwaves, and discuss an exciting internship she enjoyed with Sony LA. She also details additional radio experience, and other directions her career has taken over the years, prior to arriving at Fox 41. Finally, she shares highlights of her rewarding time in television production, and extends advice to youngsters aspiring to pursue a career behind the mic, on camera, or perhaps somewhere in the middle. Tune in and treat yourself to Lucky's story, her whit, and her wisdom!
