THURSDAY MAY 10TH
11:40AM – 12:30PM
SHERATON HALL A/B
Crimes, accidents, weather emergencies and “acts of God” can make your normal programming seem grossly inappropriate under the circumstances. In these events, your talent must live up to its name, reacting with intelligence and sensitivity, and responding appropriately on-the-fly. You don’t have a crystal ball and can’t plan for specific events. But management and staff can have a smart, practiced approach to dealing with the unexpected. This panel will examine instances where programming was rebooted in response to events, and how your staff can hone its reaction instincts.
MODERATOR:
JJ JOHNSTON (PRESIDENT, CEO, TALENT COACH – JJ INTERNATIONAL MEDIA AND MANAGEMENT SOLUTIONS)
PANELISTS:
BOBBY BONES (RADIO HOST – THE BOBBY BONES SHOW), DREW SAVAGE (MORNINGS – CHQM-FM 103.5 QM-FM), JOSIE DYE (MORNINGS – CIND-FM INDIE88), NAT HUNTER (MORNINGS – CHQM-FM 103.5 QM-FM)

ABOUT BOBBY BONES
Born and raised in Arkansas, Bobby Bones began his radio career at Henderson State University’s KSH 91.1 The Switch at the age of 17, where he graduated with a degree in Radio/TV. During that time, he also worked at KLAZ 105.9 in Hot Springs, Ark., as a part-time air talent. In 2002, Bones was hired by Q100/KQAR in Little Rock, Ark., and The Bobby Bones Night Show was born. The following year, he moved to Austin, Texas where he began hosting The Bobby Bones Show Monday through Friday from 5-10 a.m. CT on 96.7 KISS FM. Joined on-air by Lunchbox and Amy, they attracted listeners in droves, as well as top rankings in the market. For his work on the program, Bones was named “Austin Radio Personality of the Year” in 2009, 2010 and 2011, and Austin’s Alliance of Women in Media honored the program with their “Radio Personality of the Year” award seven years in a row.
