Wolvez in amongst the sheep

In some respects one could say, “ oh really Now” in reality I say good job.

In a little more than 4 years a small combination of TV stations housed inside the confines of a church in Twin Falls, Idaho, began chipping away an the concrete of the already established few high and mighty’s.

KBAX, CH 27, along with its other in facility cousins proved that low power TV was not only able to survive , but seriously kick ass on everything in their path.

A subsidiary of RFDTV , Rural TV acquired Family Net TV which is one of the networks carried by the KBAX bunch. As such much of the programming of RFDTV is now on CH-45 LPTV. Such established shows such as AG/DAY is now able to be viewed by the none cable and digitalized public.

So what’s this got to do with us and Wolvez in amongst the Sheep? Simply put, what KBAX did for TV, HazzardAyre, and KDXB/KTOW is about to do with LPFM Radio in the Magic Valley of Idaho. With localized programming, done by local people on air, a always male female combination 24/7/365.

Delivering content for everyone with wheels and fuel in their veins. But more over , for every man, and woman that has donned a military uniform, no matter branch of service, so they may know where to go for whatever they need. Myself included. For no other radio or TV station airs, TPC News, we will.

Plus we will be the only radio station in the Rocky Mountain West, educating those who don’t know, of our southern states heritage. Educating todays youth of the things they don’t teach in public schools of the Confederacy, including, today’s confederacy. This is what we are all about.

From KMVT to KSAW, they missed the boat, as for radio, we pitched, and pitched to other radio stations here, to air our programs, but they bit the Wolf, trouble is, unlike Sheep, the Wolf bites back.

In defense of KBAX TV , the mouse turned into a potent rodent, the Wolf has come down from the Mountain.

Truly the Wolvez are in amongst the Sheep.

Quote of the Day:
An adventure is only an inconvenience rightly considered. An inconvenience is only an adventure wrongly considered.
--G.K. Chesterton

Isaiah 43:16, 18-19“This is what the LORD says— he who made a way through the sea, a path through the mighty waters, “Forget the former things; do not dwell on the past. See, I am doing a new thing! Now it springs up; do you not perceive it? I am making a way in the wilderness and streams in the wasteland.” Brought to you by BibleGateway.com. Copyright (C) . All Rights Reserved.

But how bad do you want it?

When I get applications from the internet or those inquiring about our on air jobs, I get the same questions, like can you tell me more about it? Why only gals, and why not butt smugly gals at that?

Then there is the need for extreme dedication, and how bad do they want to work in radio? More over media.

The ads I reluctantly put on CraigsList, are pretty straight forward, good lookin gals that look nearly as good as one of or all of the HeeeHaw Honeys, (HeeHaw TV show) because we’ll be on TV and that is the Hazzard County look. Yes we are on radio, but simulcasted on TV on two TV networks , both CST(Confederate Star TV) and soon to be on RFDTV come this fall.

Then there is the fact why only gals? Simple, the male people or on air talent is supplied by the members of the Knytes-of-Anarchy, Hazzard County AyreWolvez .

But with women, one has to consider that real difference between the two genders. Women are, well, women. The are mothers, and of course the fact that mother nature jumps in and makes women cranky, are all factors.

Then there is the difference in women today as opposed to women of even 30 years ago. Back then women, like my own Mom would not let motherhood, come before dedication to ones profession or employment. Mom let me run by myself from 15:00 to 18:00 when both Mom and Dad got home. During the summer months, there was the gal across the street that got me into the heat of a gal in nylon stockings on their feet(read a few prior entries of HazzardAyre for deets on feets). Of course even when I was bouncing around inside mom’s belly, Mom still , irrigated 300 acres of farm ground with a shovel and plastic dams. Fed cows and critters on the farm, and drove truck while dad stacked hay, long b4 there were self loaders. And hey I turned out okay. Then I hear and read about the junk in the trunk of gals needing bed rest, not drinking while PG, or smoking, shyt Mom did both and I’m mentally light years past my peers, so must not be such a bad thing.

Together Mom and Dad wanted to build a good farm and company and they did, but it was because THEY wanted it.

I had to let one of my Interns go today, she just has too much going on. Her baby is sick, well of course, take a kid to Wendell where he was freezing, yea that’ll get em sick. You can tell em things but they do not listen. The fact that an extra $6k a month in her bank account was not enough to get her to budge, so hey, I ain’t waiting. I put off jobs and tasks that Charley needed me to do, last week , because these gals were all supposed to show up, be interviewed and begin training. They didn’t. I wasted time and got my ass chewed, that’s why Charley was a bit put off of getting me go fluid , no work, no pay in my case go fluid.

While;e I myself run my own company, there is at least 8 months to go to bringing the mighty Hazzard County Garage and all back to full heat. Until then Charley manages the money to keep me from doing stupid stuff, which I’m thankful for, but I’m here because I too, WANT IT.

My new hire and prospective new hires, seemingly don’t. One I can understand, her now thankfully ex old man beat the crap out of her, spit blood on her baby, and made her nearly miscarry. So yes I can understand her delay, and her job with HazzardAyre is secure. But the rest, from Twin Falls, to Buhl, to Nampa. Have no real excuse. Thing is, when the jobs are taken and filled , don’t ask me again, cuzz they will be not available.

Okay then gotta bitch about the thing of the Magic Valley Teen Center. Watch this go down nearly in flames.

Not wanting it too , since its foundation is a good one, give the teens here something to do and place to go, after school and on weekends. Great.

They asked me if the Knytes wanted to help. Outside of myself I had two others, the rest had prior commitments, plus the Knytes’ New Years bash itself. So I excused myself from that, and get told this morning , thanx but no thanx.

Naw we don’t play that.

I don’t think the Knytes or Dixie Toewing will be doing a big contribution there. At least not too soon.

So to Jenna, sorry, I’m a guy pal, but working here is not for you.

For the rest that have applied, ya’ll need to pull your heads out of you cautionary and Victorian butts and either get to the office/studio to apply, or say thanks and I’ll withdraw your name from those who just might REALLY WANT IT !!

Happy Hazzard County New Year Ya’ll

I am so glad I went to Hazzard County High School

I am so glad that I went to Hazzard County High school. Although circumstances did not allow me to graduate in the normal way, with my folks being ill, and me having to run the family business so we could eat, I remember all the good times. More over the best teaching and learning that any kid could have had.

I wasn’t keen on our Principal Fat Jack Black, still from Mrs. Cortibitarte to Mr. Martin, I had the best teachers. We learned , and if we missed something there wasn’t any hesitation by those teachers to go over it again.

Mrs. Hobson, well she was a special dear person to me. She had me in our one of experimental full computerized or at least as computerized as it could be in the mid 1970’s , but she had me in that media room, which is partly where I learned TV and broadcast skills.

Mrs. Snap, who was our music teacher and band instructor, was as forgiving and instructional as one could have been. Sure I couldn’t read a note of printed music on a page, but put me in back of those drums let me feel the rhythm of the music and I had it down pronto. Then there was Mr. Ills,   who was both our ag, (Agriculture) class instructor that got me into FFA, (Future Farmers of America) skills I use still today, in the ag shop, where I began my love of bending and melting steel with a welder, but most important was both Mr. Lindsey who was our Math class teacher. he got me through basic algebra and calculus , with pointing me through it with electronic formulas. A kind of applied learning. And last Mrs. Brailsford, who I will admit I had a slight crush on, but she taught us how to string together words, and make sentence trees and so on. All this I still use today.

The teachers at Hazzard County High, made learning fun, enjoyable, and put things in such a way that was challenging so we could stay interested.

Many of my Hazzard High alumni became many , not all, but many of the members several years later , of the Hazzard County Knytes, that evolved into the Knytes-of-Anarchy. While many might not claim such, they are members none the less. One that is now a FBI agent, for this district. Not bad Lonnie.

The Knytes-of-Anarchy can thank the intellectual skills we have today to those teachers at Hazzard County High School.

Sadly many are not here today, some have passed on, but their impact goes much deeper than they could have ever imagined.

As the Knytes-of-Anarchy closes out another year of brotherhood, and the success we have despite a troubled and threatened economy, that goes much further back than is told. This piss ass’d economy goes back as far as Carter and up to Clinton. It was Clinton that fixed the economy, only to be trashed by the damn Republicans, but that’s a story for a different time. But I bring that up only to outline the fact that, the Knytes, used to sit at the Hazzard County Garage, burning mice with a lighter and WD-40(Children do not try that at home) and bitching about how Mr. Peanut was kicking our nation in the dirt. But the fact is during that same time The Hazzard County Garage of Hazzard (Hagerman) Idaho, prospered, we pushed $60k plus through the doors our first 3 months of being formally in business. The Hazzard County Knytes, brought in members from all ends of the Union and world, and of course both KDSL FM(now KDXB FM) and KTOW AM was billing the better part of $300k a month in advertising, and we only had at best a area signal of a 100 miles on both stations. That was before we went to syndication.

And How come we were so successful? Because we went and learned at Hazzard County High School, Go Hazzard Pirates(Funny the schools colors were and still are orange , huh?) In closing

in moving forward or in progression, its always good to look in reverse. To see where we have been and give thanks to those who made us what we are today and gave us the educational tools to be a success today. Those educational tools I got, by going to Hazzard County High School. Thanks to my teachers there if any of ya’ll read this.

Have we really progressed any?

Have we really progressed due to paranoia?

Dig this the peanuts at Idaho’s Health and not so Welfare, decided to change a bunch of stuff with our EBT cards. They now call them SNAP cards.

Of course they deal with JP Morgan/Chase which should tell you something, but dig this, even after you have registered a hundred times the bastardly thing still don’t work. So one has to go off and use the fracking phone to check your balance, but wait it gets worse.

After you have checked that there’s supposed to be something new to tell you when money gets put into your account. But hold on tech friends the buttwipes really can’t get it straight once you enter your damn card number and even your fracking birthdate the stupid thing still is fracked up. Question is, if you’re an older and a not so together mentally person, and you have to wade through all of this your about ready to step into a mud pool.

ID.H&W ought to have thought this through a bit but, hey this is fracking Idaho.

I’ll tell you true, if it wasn’t for the fact that Charley manages my money and all, and if I had this SSI money to where I could manage it myself, my ass would be in Utah, or Western Wyoming as fast a Sylver Myst and LexiBelle could move me and I would not care one iota about this backwards idiotic frontier state. HazzardAyre could be based as easily in Salt Lake City or Evanston as it is in no go Idaho. In fact some things like this model and on air stuff could be obtained much easier. And if your asking why don’t I go? Trust me after today and the last 3 , I’m seriously looking at it.

Anybody else have this problem with their SNAP CARD?

Friendship and love are great, but at the end of the day it’s a business that needs employees.

Its one thing to have friends and have those friends work for you. But at the end of the day, it’s a business that needs employees. If one can’t take the job then it be needed to find those that are ready and able to work.

In bikers worlds, a prospect is just that a prospect, which is short for prospective member of a club. In much the same way the Knytes-of-Anarchy does the same thing with new hires. People sign on, are given mundane as well as difficult tasks, if they complete them, show up at meetings or when called , they get to be full time employees.

If one is sitting with next to zero in money, a job that pays a fairly easy $6,k a month or better is better than that zero. Lets face it state welfare, EBT or SNAP funds and that measly $50.00 a month only go so far. If you add that together with a few hundred bucks say the $710 from Social Security and so on, after one pays rent , ain’t much if anything left.

I know , I am in that boat sort of. My relief comes from having three business’s that are managed through the club so I keep my benefits, but I get $50.00 out of every $100.00 the club makes. So I’m okay. That along with what extra Charley gives me, from doing odd calls and jobs with A1. That said.

The idea of HazzardAyre is not new, we have been on air and operational since 1975, I’ll be damn if I’m loosing that.

So I have to revert back to operations before placing ads on CraigsList, and do 80% of what it needs to be, by myself and with what foot work members of the club can do. That said at the end of the day, I’m not going to just sit and wait.

The employees will come .

I have my best 3, although two are shaky. One’s sister might be the best choice as she’s all business.

I once thought, if it’s a job, that requires OJT(On the job Training) shouldn’t the prospective employee pay the employer to train them. If one is putting up money, they’re much more ambitious in seeing it through.

As such , I’m doing the same thing.

The Knytes-of-Anarchy at our officers meeting this morning decided all new prospect employees will pay to the club $75.00 a month. If they complete the training and prove themselves to the club and HazzardAyre, they get that back in a monthly bonus in their paycheck. If not, the club keeps that money we shake hands and part ways. That way the time I spend training is not time and my money wasted.

Two of our people one being my best one has been put on suspension until she works out her personal problems, the other until she figures out she’s good with the program, and gets over being sick. The sister, well we see what shakes. I’m not holding my breath.

I put going over to Burley on hold all week last week, where I could have been working on my trucks and being better equipped for running in the snow. As it is I have started seeing my bills slightly inched over my income. This is not good. You hire people to do a job to make more money , not loose it.

All factors and experts will tell you, each person you hire for a job, will cost a company $5,k at least. If you loose any more than that and your prospective employee does not produce, is not on time not able to be at the office, its best to revert operations to what they were before you hired them, and bid that prospective employee adios .

With a serious maybe in the future rehire.

But at the end of the day it’s nice to have a friend that’s a employee, but again at the end of the day this is a business and I’m the boss and its just business.

In the words of Commander Spock, The needs of the many outweigh the needs of the few or the one.

The needs of the club outweigh the needs of a few girls and even me. My decisions are based on what the club and its enterprises needs , not just me, or Dixie Toewing.

Anybody got a $20.00 for gas?

So I wake up to the sounds of a call from Jenna, and hear her guy pal, tickling her clitty under the phone, as she talked watching cartoons, bullstuff, he’s watch nipples bounce.

So then get off the phone and try to call Charley for fuel, still over in my old area. Funny, ain’t it. I move over here, Charley goes over there, so then Jared jumps my ass on the phone, and its like, I forgot this number was reassigned to you and I’ll try Charley on his number, which goes to voice mail.

I know I’ll get fuel eventually, and I know all is well, but a serious discussion of protocol, and procedure between big C , me, and Jared is indeed needed. But you’d think Jared would have said, tell ya what Pat, I’ll bum you a $20.00 , get some gas ya’ll pay back on Tuesday when you get your money from my Dad. If it was in the reverse or other way around that’s what I’d do.

So sit here waiting on a few of the gals for a conference , then try and get in touch with Charley after 3:00 or so.

If there ever was a time for re-examination of this Twin Falls from Burley move, and all. I can truly say, I’m doing it, and why I’ll be damned if I’m dumping the shop, in Burley. If nothing more than a place to retreat to if this Twin Falls gig and all that makes it up goes sour.

Talk at ya’ll later

Sometimes its not personal, but its just business

Sometimes your stuck in the middle of trying really hard to be patient and understanding and being a boss and a company officer. In this case a club officer.

When these things you feel sad, but you know for the greater good, ya gotta say sorry call us maybe in the future but only if your serious.

As you know as reported earlier , I pulled the ads on model and talent searches from CraigsList. Out of a half dozen inquiries , we found three that have the dedication to stick out their necks to get involved. Two others are sitting on the fence , the last, that kept me waiting for an entire day without even as much as a phone call bowed out. Okay no problem. One gets put in the cross bar motel, but no further communication, still wondering, but I’m not in a big rush there. One did a quick stop and high earlier, bet is she wont come back.

These kinds of people in a different corral or industry , say as innovators that brought Facebook to light, wouldn’t have been appreciative or impressed either. Of course that’s California, but working from inside  duplex, much of the time sleeping on the floor, and living as a frat house, a great creation came about.

Is HazzardAyre Radio the next big thing? Can it even be done in Twin Falls. While I can’t answer that as far as the next BIG thing, I can say that for 35 years HazzardAyre Radio, has been the only syndicated and small market low power radio station in the Mountain West that has championed radical, rebel , fight the system and snub the LDS church and all biases radio station.

With nearly radio stations across the nation one even in Alaska running our taped syndicated edition, HazzardAyre is thee radio station and radio program. To describe our programming in a nut shell is a bit of WolfMan Jack, Doctor Demento, Howard Stern done Hazzard style. That may be a bit too simplistic but that’s a good short description.

We keep all the truckers, toewers, and gearheads out there entertained and informed. We keep Dukes-of-Hazzard fans in gear and loving their rebel spirit, we preach the gospel of the Confederate States of America and today’s Southern Movement. And we have been doing that since 1976.

Every year we run countless ads in fan and gearhead style publications. This requires putting hot female bodies in in good taste in front of rods and rides, and a talent search is the task. In those tasks we hardly expect the kinds of turn outs today as we had when we started them back down in Hazzard in the mid 1970’s mid 1980’s.

Why a gal and guy on air? Simple it sounds good, proven more than once and the best example, Howard Stern and Robin Quivers. Howard may be good, but Robin makes that outfit pop. Added to that a dedicated production team, and that’s why Stern’s show commands the big bucks, yet Stern really ain’t no real good looker, he has had every hottie in and off Hollywood on his show.

That in Idaho? Maybe , but it still can work . Does work. My best trainee is a reporter now on CNN, but she came in, one hot afternoon into a studio in not much more than a broom closet , and see what happened.

Had another in Gooding before that collapse due to greed by a real estate dude, but still Erin walks in and we had our arms wrapped around something hot. Too bad enough did not stick around long enough to see the harvest, much less the cultivation. But hey their loss, many haven’t done well since.

But no matter how great someone looks in a mini portfolio, its not until I see and hear them in person, until I see if they have the moxy through simple tests like the toe/tow flirt kiss, its not until I have them act out a on air bit, do I know they have the IT factor I’m looking for. And while the network and all is on paper and employees paid by the club, still HazzardAyre and the mini station now carrying it and our super station going on air in October , HazzardAyre is my baby. This mini media empire I breathed life into, and I’ll be damned if I’m going to hold the damn door open forever, for women that their crap don’t stink and that their whatever is in danger.

Looking at our targeted audience, is 80% on the edge fringe people, they live life fast and hard. They love fast trucks, trick rat rods, hot bikes, warbirds, wyld toew trucks, fast women and southern food. They look for the same ingredients in their entertainment, and on their radio’s IPODS, and soon to air,  satellite radio. That’s right a XM/Sirius channel has been offered for us and we are taking it. But not without the right staff with the right stuff/.

So for all those kicking the tires, time to get off the fence or forget it. One of my gals today put ads in local publications and will be conducting the talent search from here on out. I will only be there for the moxy test and final interview. The rest she will do. I’m greatly impressed by both Helen and her sister.

The courtship is over, its time for heavy breathing and breeding sort of, to give birth to an even more powerful HazzardAyre.

HazzardAyre is southern fried radio in the Mountain West.
