So, The Gainesville Sun did a nice article on BreakThru and I’ve been meaning to post a link to it for a while. But, as anyone who comes across this blog knows, I’m a bit of a slacker. I keep making deals with myself about posting at least once a day… it never seems to work out that way though. So, my new resolution is once a week… I think I can do it.
Anyway, I’ll post part of the article below and you can follow the link at the bottom to the article. It has a really, really horrible picture of me… but Matt looks good and so does our closet.

Two Gainesville DJs on BreakThru Radio start new live music showcase
DJ Emily greeted her listeners with a comforting “Welcome back, friends” before spinning her crunching audio brew on one broadcast.
“If you are a little groggy today, this song right here should do the trick,” the Gainesville disc jockey said. “The track’s called ‘Wake Up.’ You’re hearing it here, on BreakThru Radio.”
The song has the attitude and adrenaline to get any motorist through Archer Road’s worst driving nightmares. But BreakThru Radio isn’t a drive-time, FM broadcast interspersed with Toyota ads and proper FCC manners.
