Thunder and PT, 102.9 The Wolf, Minneapolis with the Alan Jackson Scam

A hypothetical: a co-worker tells you a story that they were at a restaurant over the weekend when Ben Affleck and a companion came in and sat at the table next to them.  He talked with your co-worker the entire meal and then paid for it.  What would you do with that?  Sadly, many shows would take the path of least resistance.  They’d get on and tell their co-worker’s story to the audience.  When the smarter move would be to have the co-worker on to tell their story.  When an interesting story appears, always find someone who actually was in the story to come on the show to tell it themselves.  It’ll be much more impactful.  Simple, right?  This is an easy way to make that break better.  Have people tell their own stories – and all you need to do is facilitate it.  Thunder and PT, 102.9 The Wolf, Minneapolis get this.  A listener’s mom is being scammed by a fake Alan Jackson online.  They got the kid on to tell the story and it feels much different.
