The $8,000 Years: How I Survived and Thrived in Early Radio

from Bob the Blade · host Blade

The money I made over the years, I made $8,000 a year working full-time at WHSL in Wilmington in 1980 to 1983. $8,000 a year. I couldn't eat. Eviction notices on my door constantly. But I had the time of my life, man. I am telling you. The time of my life. I got a job at WRDU after that. 1984, I think.$17,000 a year.Support the showI always appreciate your support, I am very clear in my understanding of how unclear I really am of myselfand the kaleidoscope in my head makes me laugh.
