Time killers

Time once again to delve into the stuff we've found online (while searching for show topics and info) over the last week or so. Warning: Your productivity might be severely compromised by continuing on with the following links. At least mine was...

I was going to go with the headline "Missing Links," or "Linkin' Park," but...whatever. For those new to this weekly feature, a bit of explanation is in order. Scot and I spend a dangerous amount of time online, reading, researching, investigating, etc...

Sorry. Not the golf links. Especially since we're looking at rain and snow showers here on the 16th of May. We're talking hyperlinks. Normally we call this exercise "time-wasting," but I recently received an email from a listener who told me that although she enjoys the things we post in the "time-waster" columns, she doesn't like to think of herself as one who wastes time...

Time once again for something that's taken on a life of it's own...Time Wasters! Actually, I do the time wasting for you. The following links are all things that I've discovered while looking for more serious and topical matters for "The Riley & Scot Show." T...

Time to jump into our weekly rundown of the stuff I find while I'm looking for some of the things that Scot and I discuss weekday mornings. Man does not live by news stories, polls, and political topics alone. Hence, the Time Waster. What would our most famous and recognizable animated characters look like if they were rendered with just a bit more realism...

As discussed here previously, when you host a morning talk show, you spend a lot of time reading "hard news" stories, opinion pieces, polling results, etc. So much time, in fact, that I've just got to give my brain, eyes, and mouse something fun, goofy, strange, or just plain interesting...

Doing a news/talk radio show requires a lot of online time. Time spent reading news stories from multiple outlets, background research on hot topics, getting up-to-speed with anything and everything our audience might be interested in, etc...
