  • Who needs a meteorologist, when you have the Waffle House Index?
    When she graduated college, Jordan landed a job in sports marketing for her university.  She enjoyed her job, but the hours and pay, not much, and even though she was successful, still had to work a second job to pay bills.  When she was out with a client for a contract renewal proposal, they told her they did not want to see it.  This devastated her, but only for a moment as they immediately offered her a job making more than twice her current salary.  That client was the Waffle House, where Jordan has been for the past 11 years, and has loved every minute of it.  She is a Waffle House fanatic, and would to you forever about it if she were able to.  She truly loves her job, and loves to watch the Waffle House family.  I will go ahead and apologize if you get hungry during the episode, but do not worry, as I am sure you are within a 10-15 minute drive to your closest Waffle House.
    With that being said, can I please get an order of hash browns scattered, smothered, diced, and capped?  Extra crispy please.

  • We've Got the Munchies
    What do you do when you are unable to find treats for your dog(s) that you are not confident are safe for them to eat?  You start a business making all natural, high quality gourmet dog treats. That is exactly what David and Dawn Kirchinger did. Their love of dogs gave them the idea to create a brand that is really starting to thrive. If a dog is man's best friend, then they deserve a healthy treat! That is exactly what the Kirchingers are providing.

  • From Trailer to Trailblazer

    In this episode, we sit down with Randy Bocook and his son, Harrison, with Bocook Realty.  The first thing that was obvious about these guys, is the passion and love they both have for the Richmond Hill community.  Yeah, the Bocook Reality team has been #1 for the past 7 years, but what the whole team cares the most about, is doing right by the community.  Something else about these two, is their drive to be successful; Randy when he had to, and Harrison to graduate without student loan debt. 

    We hope you enjoy this episode as much as we did recording it. #WeAreRichmondHill #LoveOurCity

  • Oxenturd!

    *Warning, some jokes, language, and content will not be appropriate for all listeners.  Listener discretion is advised.*


    Well that special day has come upon us once again this year.  I can almost see you out there, firing up the grill, clicking those grilling tongs together in one hand and holding beer number three in the other, all while wearing those always comfortable Nike Air Monarchs or New Balance 608s with the white crew socks coming out the top.  Of course the day I am referring to is Father's Day, and what Father's day would be complete without some terrible Dad Jokes??  So gather around with your old man and listen to this special Father's Day episode of dad jokes.

  • A New Chapter in the Story of Life

    Kimberly recently purchased The Book Store on the Hill.  Growing up in a small town in Florida, she always enjoyed reading, and developed a great love for books. She loved her career as a licensed massage therapist, but an unfortunate injury caused that to end prematurely. After a stint in real estate, she walked into a bookstore and asked for a job. That is where the new chapter begins.

    What do an octopus, Raggedy Ann, and Pound Puppies have in common?  Grab a nice, warm cup of coffee, cozy blanket, snuggle up on the couch with your favorite set of headphones, and find out in this chapter.

  • A True Queen of Delivery

    This week, we speak with Erika Martin, owner of Queen of the Hill Deliveries.  She tells a little of her story of getting down to Richmond Hill to avoid the cold New England winters.  When she signed up to start delivering groceries to people, she only wanted to meet people, and learn the city a little better. She realized how much customers were being charged in delivery fees and up-charges on the items being purchased, and she knew there had to be a better way. That is when she decided to take action into her own hands. 

    If you want to get in contact with Erika for grocery deliver:
