A Kip-Fix to Your Finance Problems
72 plays

morningamp:

Two awesome, financially focused businesses in one kick-ass segment! KIP Solutions is run by college undergrads and gets the word out about non-profits over social media. Moneythink offers ten week courses to high school students about personal financial literacy. Why are respective founders Patrick Ip and Ted Gonder in studio together? Well, they’re best friends who do everything together, from rowing crew to appearing on the radio. Patrick and Ted joined the AMp’s Brian Babylon and Molly Adams to discuss the development of their business and what it’s like running one while still working on an undergrad.

Miscellaneous Monday (2.18.13 4-6 pm CST) Watch What They Watch

Let Us Celebrate Human Foible! f

How not to conduct an interview :) 

smellitch:

This is the sound of a man losing focus. 

Last weekend I interviewed a Serbian music student about her experience in the audience at the Spektral show. Today I listened to the WAV file and realized that her answers are almost unusable — and it’s completely my fault. She gave general, yes-or-no answers because I asked general questions, most of them yes-or-no. And it’s clear I wasn’t listening. (I sound like a cheezy dude talking to a girl at a bar — and she’s totally not interested.)  

Anyway, let’s hope you and I both learn from this example.

52 plays

vocalostorytellers:

I have my first interview for my story tomorrow! Eli Williamson is the executive director of Leave No Veteran Behind, and is transitioning to his new role as Director of Veterans Programs at the McCormick Foundation. He’ll be sitting down with me tomorrow.

Then next week, I’ll be talking (in person) to the Brian Clauss referenced below.

Thanks to Aurora Aguilar and Adriana Gallardo for suggesting references, and also to classmates Sam Zelitch and Nick Walker.

nvrohr:

Program description from wgnradio.com: Garry speaks with Brian Clauss about the services that Veteran Legal Support Center provides.

My note: Brian Clauss has been super helpful with my research! Speaking to him on the phone at 12:30 p.m. He makes points in this story to remind us that veterans can make claims at any age, and include both men and women.

@vocalo we still sit by our radios.

As the honorary “junior curator” is actually a huge fan of the Big Broadcast, we’ll be “tuning in” tomorrow night:

(It’s almost shocking, albeit gratifying, that a 9-yr-old will put down his Nintendo DS to listen to the radio.)  

usnatarchives:

We released the 1940 census on April 2, and this Thursday at 7 pm, we host a program on the radio shows that Americans of that era listened to!

Ed Walker, host of WAMU’s longest-running radio show “The Big Broadcast,” and Rob Bamberger, host of “Hot Jazz Saturday Night,” will discuss the history of the show. They’ll also present a sampling of the vintage radio broadcasts and discuss how the programs enriched the lives of Americans in the 1930s and 1940s. (Details here: http://go.usa.gov/VvU)
