Turi Ryder, author of “She Said What? (A Life on the Air)” has hosted her own radio shows in LA, Chicago, Minneapolis, and Portland. She gives advice, which you probably should not take, and tells stories, which you probably should not believe. Marci Persky spent years reporting and editing for UPI and other news organizations. She's worked in radio news and as a talk show host, for stations from her hometown of Kalamazoo Michicgan and her second home, Chicago. Marci now lives in Arizona, somewhere near the Grand Canyon, where she helps run an animal shelter, a political organization, and a hospice-supporting thrift store. Clearly, she likes to run things.

Turi hates being diplomatic. Marci hates spelling errors in major news sites and papers. We hate a lot of meaningless stuff. Sometimes you just have to vent a little spleen…Get off my lawn!
When your whole household is down with an ugly virus, you learn some interesting things about people’s digestions. When DO you need a stair lift? An infomercial with a potentially deadly price. The P-Diddy trial. What not to eat off the ground.
“What kind of people need to pay full price for things?” We are flummoxed.
as The Rolling Stones almost sang: You can’t always get [the price] you want. Also why would a person with a boring job but no obligations be afraid to try something s/he might like? Sleeping on the couch.
When you inherit something ugly. Decorating for the fear factor: that thing you hung up in your kids’ room thinking it was “cheerful”. Bathroom art. Shaving…and when to skip it. The Chippendale Dancers and one revolting photo session.
