Despite Obama, the American Dream is Not Dead

I’m a radio nerd, always have been and always will be. WLS-AM is one of the oldest talk stations in the country. It broadcasts over 3 states and has the best programming around. If you’re anywhere near Illinois, you’ve heard it. When I was 16, I used to get up at 5:30am and take my dad’s car to Dunkin’ Donuts for a coffee just so I could listen to the news of the day before I was trapped in high school hell. Don and Roma woke me up every morning and I would sit in that white Jeep before the sun was even up sipping my coffee with cream and chuckling at Don Wade’s tirades. How many teenagers do you know set the alarm to hang out with talk show hosts? I was weird, I admit it…still am.
