blue-red1Around 400 BC Plato proclaimed that what it’s really all about is the “Principle Of Influence”. The POI can best be explained by you visualizing a thousand warriors rushing at you with their swords drawn, your immediate need is to find out who the POI (leader) is real quick because only he and he alone can save you from being slaughtered.10404877_10153003351204307_8665266998486747413_n
While working at WIBC in Indy the POI was the legendary Chuck Riley who was the malcontents leader and if I introduced anything new at a jock meeting all heads would turn towards him because Riley was their last chance.
The way I took advantage of the situation was to bring Chuck into my office the day to my before the meeting where I would explain what I was trying to accomplish in great detail. The next day when I introduced our new concept or promotion all heads of course immediately clicked towards Riley but what they heard was … I really like this one!Of course it was devious you had to be, Hilliard (pictured above Chuck Riley) was insatiable about such things as ratings.

Reading is the real great escape.
 
The definition of art is your observation of life alng with your twisted comments about it.

Women don’t make a lotta sense until you love them.
 
Women will never go back socially and men will never go back sexually.
 
Most communication is done with the eyes so when you’re on the radio you might wanna think about that.
 
There are no boring stories, only boring story tellers.

  1. One of the virtues of working with Charles Dann Hanks “Riley” was he was enough of a jaded cynic that his BS-meter was always visible, without him saying a word. If it meant the possibility of more money or higher ratings, Chuck was all-in. Otherwise, the facial expression and body language was all it took. He had a glare that would always make me retreat and try again.
