If you listen to my show on a regular basis, you probably know that I am a big fan of the FX Television show, "Sons Of Anarchy", which is about a ficticious motorcycle gang in Charming, California. Out of all of the episodic TV shows out there, it is one of my top five favorites
August 22, 2012 He was a hunter, rancher, explorer, soldier, naturalist, author, governor of New York State and President of the United States. Teddy Roosevelt was the first president to ride in a car, the first president to ride in an airplane and the first to dive in a submarine.
August 20, 2012 Every now and then a new artist runs through WYRK studios and performs a mini concert for a few of the staffers. Most of the time, we find out that the guy/girl has been working the circuit in Nashville or has been writing there for quite a while. One guy who recently blew through Buffalo on one of those quick tours was D. Vincent Williams. Williams has been writing in Nashville for a long time and now he finally has a chance to try and be a star. Did you know that D. Vincent Williams had part in writing the Rascal Flatts hit
Although they differ in style and tone in every way imaginable, ‘The Expendables 2‘ and ‘The Bourne Legacy‘ are both action movies and they share the same audience (people who like watching people beat up other people). The slick, modern ‘The Bourne Legacy’ was last week’s box office champion, so everyone was wondering if its success would cut into the opening of the brawny, ’80s throwback that is ‘The Expendables 2.’ Or vice versa.

August 16, 2012 I say it time and time again: Buffalo is full of all kinds of events and festivals throughout the summer. This weekend is the annual Polish Harvest Festival in the heart of Polonia. It’s held this Friday, August 17 through Sunday, August 19 at Corpus Christi Church (199 Clark Street, Buffalo).
The 2012 Summer Olympics came to a close in London on Sunday with the United States adding two more gold medals to bring its Olympic-high total to 46. Here’s a recap of the day’s highlights:
Reno, Nevada is a pretty cool place to see. It's has been called "the biggest little city in the world".
My good friend Tom Garwol was in Reno recently to see the city and to check out their car show called "Hot August Nights"
We imagine that aside from singing in a critically successful country music trio, one of the best parts of being in Pistol Annies is that each member of the group has two ‘sisters’ they can count on for anything. At least, that seems to be true for Angeleena Presley, who turned to bandmates Miranda Lambert and Ashley Monroe for help in picking a white dress for her recent wedding. The trio went dress shopping along with a camera crew from ‘Say Yes to the Dress: Atlanta,’ and the whole process will be featured on an upcoming episode.
August 1, 2012 There’s some question as to what the oldest continuously produced car model might be. Corvette owners want to think it’s the Vette. They’ve been around since 1953. The Ford F-series has been around since 1948. Others think it’s the Chevy Suburban.

It really puts a smile on my face when I see young people getting involved with performing music. I have been a musician since I was a kid and it's something I will never give up.
I try to encourage young kids to learn an instrument and learn it well enough to be a performer
July 26, 2012 Today (Thursday, July 26), I had the pleasure of meeting new artist, D. Vincent Williams. You may not recognize his name yet, but if you've been a country music fan for any length of time, you've probably heard his songs. In 2002, Williams wrote the Rascal Flatts' blockbuster, “I’m Movin’ On,” named the 2003 Academy of Country Music Awards' Song of the Year.
