Lights! Cameras! Jack's Back!

I'm sure you've heard the phrase, "He's got a face for radio." I hope that doesn't apply to me, but ugly is in tghe eye of the beholder. Who knows? Tune into the radio and see for yourself.

What we've unveiled at WLSC Tiger Radio is nothing new. I've watched countless broadcasts of Don Imus and Mike & Mike on television. Howard Stern has had cameras in the studio. So has Bob & Tom, Kidd Kraddick and others. We're just one of the first to do it in the Carolinas.

Honestly, it does feel a little different with cameras on in the studio. It's not freaking me out, but there's an uneasiness. I can't explain it. It's just new ground for me to cover.

As many of you know, I've hosted a dailv tv show, River Talk since 1997. I've also been involved in several television projects since breaking into broadcasting in 1982. Oddly enough, I feel like I'm letting you in on some big secret.

For me, radio has always been more fun that television. Now, you can watch the radio by clicking your mouse. Swing on by TigerRadio.com and you can watch my radio show weekdays between 8 am and 10 am. It's a great way to see how my morning radio show sorta just comes together.

You can watch my radio show at TigerRadio.com, MyTigerTV.com, Facebook and Ustream. If you have a smart phone, you can even watch us anywhere you go.

Tiger TV is Unleashed

If you'd told me 6 months ago that I'd be launching an internet television station in the middle of winter, I'd has said that you were crazy. It looks like I'm the crazy one because WLSC has moved forward in creating and launching Tiger TV.

The offical website is MyTigerTV.com. If you're a fan of classic television shows and vintage Hollywood movies you just might like Tiger TV.

We have a 24 hour channel featuring classic Hollywood programming and new original shows, too. Our plans also include a wide variety of On Demand programs. Although, Tiger TV is advertiser supported, viewers will experience limited commercial interruptions.

Don't miss a minute of the action. We have unleashed Tiger TV and I'll borrow a phrase from another weel known cat when I say, "It's grrreat!".
