Hiring a new asst. producer - houseboat - 04-27-2009
Heard FB mention this morning they were thinking of adding a new asst. producer to the show.
Think they'll promote an intern? FB has an infatuation with intern Milton, but I don't think Milton has radio interest, he was trying to get a MA in accounting.
My other thought is they have a feats of strength intern battle for the right for the asst. producer role, or a realty show type battle where they "cast" for it for the spot and then have a vote or eliminations.
Thoughts or ideas?

Is there really that much to do for Joe, and how ever many interns? I'm sure they are able to stay busy, but what do they actually do that takes so much time? I'm just asking, because I have no idea how a radio show works.

I second.
Re: Hiring a new asst. producer - zdunklee - 04-27-2009
I vote Becky, a sarcastic assistant producer is needed.
Re: Hiring a new asst. producer - Titan! - 04-27-2009
Torque and Becky would both be awesome, but I gotta go with Internet Porn Jenni

Ya more changes is exactly what they need
Re: Hiring a new asst. producer - Biff - 04-27-2009
Hire me. I'm really grumpy in the mornings and it will add some tension.
Re: Hiring a new asst. producer - MissyT - 04-27-2009
I vote for Howie....the guys would have way more fun with him than we do.
Re: Hiring a new asst. producer - mayorofawesometown - 04-27-2009
Hire Kurt Busch. He's poor and has been doing free work forever. Give him a couple of bucks and some shower gel. Then tell him not to drink it.

I think the reasoning for this is so Joe can get more air time. Half the time the guys ask him a question, he's screening phone calls or looking up audio.
I think it'd be great to have more on-air Joe time.
Re: Hiring a new asst. producer - Rock Monster - 04-27-2009
I'm betting it will be intern kurt busch
Re: Hiring a new asst. producer - LimpBagel - 04-27-2009
Milton finished the degree and is a CPA now, isn't he?
I think it's going to be someone outside of the interns. No way is it IPJ, too awkward.
Re: Hiring a new asst. producer - tinkleheimer - 04-27-2009
Have it be me. I've been wanting to get into radio forever and have virtually no experience. I am a million in a lifetime catch.
Re: Hiring a new asst. producer - Mark the Valet - 04-28-2009
You should only hire becky if you want POISON on the airwaves.
Re: Hiring a new asst. producer - Hurley - 04-28-2009
Dudes, Hire Me.
I promise to bring back NTT, swear a lot, and kick the sindicators butt out the door!
Re: Hiring a new asst. producer - 0rz0ski - 04-28-2009
Does Joe want interns that aren't college kids? Now that I'm done with my damn degree, I finally have time to pursue my random interests. I'm technically proficient and could assist with fixing the (daily) breaking of their shitty computers.
Re: Hiring a new asst. producer - houseboat - 04-28-2009
So instead of speculation, this thread turned into a bunch of quasi internet dorks begging for a job.
Predictable.

Hey guys hire me !
Re: Hiring a new asst. producer - -Jiggy- - 04-28-2009
They clearly just need to hire the entire message board and cycle through us every day.
As you can see my plan is well thought out and virtually fool-proof.

Honestly there really is a lot to do. Plus, I think, next week we're going down to just three interns: Me, Alexsss, and maybe a new girl.
With how many calls we're getting, an intern is needed throughout most segments to answer phones; Joe edits audio and pulls segments throughout the entire day; logs of the show are made; videos are posted to the web page; audio is pulled from videos; Best Of for Saturday is done; advertisements for the week are planned; Joe makes promos for every day; etc...
Re: Hiring a new asst. producer - Howie Feltersnatch - 04-28-2009
so you're saying Joe doesn't just sleep in the office, read the paper, and perform the ocassional stunt anymore?
really?
Re: Hiring a new asst. producer - -Jiggy- - 04-28-2009
This just in. This pic was sent to me from an inside source of the studio offices. Looks like Marissa is going for a cover-up!!

Dewey Cox is like 74 so I don't think there's an age limit.
Re: Hiring a new asst. producer - zdunklee - 04-28-2009
They could easily hire Jiggy, I hear he works for 6 bananas a day and is currently jobless.

What do you expect when a "Full fledged" Internet dork wants to debate whether to "have a feats of strength intern battle for the right for the asst. producer role, or a realty show type battle where they "cast" for it for the spot and then have a vote or eliminations."

If by 6 bananas a day you mean 6 bananas a day and a reserved parking spot then, hell yeah, I'll do it.

whatever you do don't hire me

There you go guys, you should hire me as a contract guy, I just got you a new assistant producer that will accept bananas as payment. Maybe I can use the same logic to get you lucrative deals with new stations :thumbup:

How long do interns usually last? I thought it was about 2 months, but it seems like you and Alexsss have been there much longer. And it seems like there have been newer interns that are apparently no longer there.
Re: Hiring a new asst. producer - BWN 7 - 04-29-2009
I vote to demote Zane and move Joe in to his chair. Zane sux.

Hmm... I'm not sure how long they typically last. I started last December and Alexsss had been there for a while when I joined. I think the guys are glad to keep anyone who is reliable and mildly competent. Not that the other ones weren't... Notebook and Pube might still be around, I just never see them.
Re: Hiring a new asst. producer - Torque - 04-29-2009
Thank you for the nominations, but I'm probably too sarcastic even for them.
As for the comments about how there can be that much to do- there is so much prep work, editing, on-the-fly scheduling, and phone-answering that a second producer is well overdue. The work that Joe and the interns do is like a full day's work crammed into the actual show hours and there's still before and after work to do daily.
I'm guessing they'll hire someone to lighten the technical load for Joe and get things done that need to be designated to someone who is there full time and not just on a volunteer schedule (NOT knocking the interns at all) I can't see them hiring someone without an entertaining personality so the asst. producer will definitely add to on-air content.
