The Weekly Grind – Omaha's Young Professionals Radio Show

Hey! I’m Saturday’s show. I like laughing, long walks in the park and talks with politicians that are actually smart. Like Kent Rogert.

That’s right, kids. Tomorrow we will have state Senator Kent Rogert on the show. And we couldn’t be more excited. For one, there’s a lot to talk about in the legislature right now, so we’re looking forward to getting Senator Rogert’s take…as well as how these issues can effect young professionals.

But even more, we’re jacked to talk about some of the bills he’s introduced, like:
– LB262 – Change times relating to alcoholic liquor sales and lottery sales as prescribed
– LB 478 – Provide for alcoholic liquor sale and consumption on Game and Parks Commission property
– LB1013 – Provide for extended closing time for alcoholic liquor retail licensees as prescribed

AND MORE!

And he’s one of the most reasonable thinkers we’ve seen in the senate this year. So long story short, we’re kinda geeking out on this interview tomorrow. TUNE IN!

The show basically consisted of two guests: The hilarious Monty Eich of the Weisenheimer’s comedy troupe and three of the founders of GreenStreet Cycle – North Downtown’s newest bike shop…which opens TODAY!

It was a funny and very informative show. We hope you enjoy it.

Thanks again to all our listeners.

Another good show is lined up for this Saturday. First, we’ll be joined by comedian Monty Eich of The Weishenheimers. If you’re not familiar with the Weisenheimers, they’re a comedy troupe based out of Omaha. And they’re hilarious. The interview with Monty should be a funny one.

Then we’ll be chatting with the fine folks from Greenstreet Cycles – a new bike shop in North Downtown.

Should be another great one. Be sure to tune in Saturday morning. And our live stream should be working, so even if you’re not in radio range you can still enjoy the greatest radio show in the history of radio or any other form of communication.

Also, be sure to check out our Humpday Hangover podcast, only available by subscribing on iTunes or clicking the link above. Parental discretion is advised. The language is a little more loose with the absence of the FCC.

Cheers.

Well, Brad Hoshaw stopped by the show on Saturday and gave us not one, BUT TWO great songs, live. He’s also a super cool dude with a very refreshing take on the Omaha music scene. It was a great interview and a great performance.

We have a great show lined up for you tomorrow. First around 10:30 we’ll be talking with one of Omaha’s up-and-coming musicians, Brad Hoshaw from Brad Hoshaw and the Seven Deadlies. Just for starters, he and his band were awarded Artist of the Year, Album of the Year and best adult alternative singer/songwriter from the 2010 Omaha Entertainment and Arts Awards. In other words, when it comes to Omaha music, he’s a pretty big deal. So be sure to tune in and hear our interview with him!

Also on tomorrow’s show, listeners will have a chance to win 2 tickets to the Omaha Young Professionals Summit on March 4th.

So tune in! 10-noon on 1180 AM, KOIL.
