>> My name is Becca Lynn, I do the Morning Show on Cat Country 96,
and we're coming up on 13 years that we've been doing the show.
The show starts at 5 AM and our first on air break is around 5 10.
So my day starts at 3 30 AM.
You know, I have several cups of coffee and I kind of get ready for the day.
And when I get to the station, it's opening a whole bunch of websites.
I open weather websites, I open websites for show content that involve who's,
what celebrity is having a birthday today, or what crazy stories are coming out of Florida,
checking social media, what's trending, to find out, again, what people are talking about,
what they want to talk about, and things that they want to hear.
An example of an absolute crazy, crazy morning would probably be the 7 o'clock hour,
which is what we consider to be the power hour,
because most people are getting up, they're getting ready for work.
They may start at 8, they may start at 9.
We have a ticket giveaway at 10 after 7, so we've got that.
In between giving away of those tickets,
we're also recording our national shows for the syndicated programs.
So we're getting a ticket winner, we're recording national shows, I'm also preparing
for my news break coming up at 7 30, we get the winner, we talk to that person,
hopefully we get something good that we can air, yay, she's excited,
she won tickets to a concert, airing the phone call, talking a little bit more,
playing a couple of more songs, going into the news break.
The news break has to be a local and a national story, and then what we call a kicker,
which is a kind of funny, ridiculous story that makes people laugh.
And I play the role of, typically what's, a generator, so I'll generate the story
and I'll generate the topic, and then my partner, Sam, he will provide the joke.
He'll provide the one line to make people laugh.
Then we do the weather, then we do some commercials,
and then we have another benchmark at 7 40.
And that's where we play a game, whether it's reciting lines from a movie,
or it's playing a clip from a movie, asking a trivia question, playing some other silly,
ridiculous game that we've come up with over the past 13 years,
and then giving away another prize.
And then we come up to about 7 50, another news break, more traffic and then we hit,
so that's an hour, that's just one hour.
