January 26, 2012 Back in November, I did a remote broadcast from Terry's Tees on West 4th to kick off our "O Christmas Tee" campaign. While there, I admired Terry's ultra-cool high school t-shirt designs. And I mentioned I graduated from Daviess County High School. That was a good thing.
January 26, 2012 It's funny when you tell people you cut your thumb pretty badly with a windshield wiper blade. Because their first thought is, "Well, they aren't THAT sharp are they?" Yeah, you should see my windshield. No, just kidding. You should have seen my thumb!
January 19, 2012 While I am drastically cutting back on my "sweets" intake for 2012, one weakness remains. And, actually, I can't really call it a weakness because it just provides me far too much joy. It's chocolate milk.
January 16, 2012 A month ago, when I was in Nashville helping my sister purchase jeans for my nephew at a previously unknown-to-me big and tall store, I did the unthinkable. I failed to steer my car toward Bass Pro Shops. I can't let that happen again.
January 14, 2012 Before the WBKR Virtual Tour continues, we find ourselves winding westward down the south hall. It's time to enter The Dave Cave! Yes, it's my office. Enter at your own risk. And don't forget to say "Hi" to the Stooges
January 11, 2012 Walking through the back hallway of WBKR I heard Jaclyn playing Conway Twitty's classic "I'd Love to Lay You Down." Clearly, I had to haul it over to the studio and join in.
January 9, 2012 My birthday was Saturday, and for years now, I've told everyone I want nothing for my birthday. Most are happy to comply. Most, that is, except for my mother who told me upon hearing that request, "That decision is not up to you." So she still gets me a birthday gift. You know moms. Anyway, this year she wasn't the only one.
December 21, 2011 It's a new feature (I hope) here at wbkr.com. It's called "Dinner with Dave." And today, to my pleasant surprise, I was greeted with the news that my first such meal would be homemade egg rolls, courtesy of our very own digital doyenne, Ashley Sollars.
December 19, 2011 If you've seen me, you know I'm a big guy. And maybe a thought that crosses your mind is, "Where does he get his clothes?" Well, it's a lot easier than it might seem, as there are big and tall stores and departments just about everywhere you look.

Photos by Dave Spencer I was watching a broadcast on one of the 24 hour news channels and the anchor was reporting about a woman who'd been missing for many years. And they put up a graphic showing what she'd look like today. They obviously had used some aging software for their purposes. I thought that was really cool and decided to Google "how will I look old." I came up with an awesome website--http://morph.cs.st-andrews.ac.uk/Transformer/. I then decided to have a little fun with some photos of the WBKR airstaff. Who do YOU think has the most authentic-looking age-enhanced photo?

By now, I would imagine most folks have already put up their Christmas trees. On the WBKR Facebook page, I recently asked about the oldest ornaments on our Facebook friends' trees. And so I started thinking about the ornaments that have always been a part of my family's holiday traditions. Three of them stand out in my mind.
November 21, 2011 The Louise Mandrell Christmas Dinner Party is now playing at Gaylord Opryland Resort in Nashville and, last night, Jaclyn, Dave Spencer and I went to the show! Louise sang, danced, played a variety of instruments and told holiday stories about the Mandrell family. Before the show, the staff inside the Tennessee Ballroom served up an amazing holiday dinner with all the trimmings! And, when it was over . . . each table was served boxes of Christie Cookies! Well, naturally, we dug right in! But things started to get a little hairy when Jaclyn decided to see how many of the cookies she could stuff into my face! Watch!
