On Nov. 8, 2023: The Universe traded Cozmik Cowboys

WE LOST: Our beloved voice man, our own Don Pardo, FRANK STANTON. He died after a badass cancer fight. His “…maybe the kids have been messin’ with it…” and myriad other production spots will run forever in the Jive-O-Sphere. The day before he died, he managed to voice one last signoff for us all [below], with one of his trademark lines… “Hi everybody, this is Frank Stanton signing off for now, and remember… be cool, buy bonds, and keep smilin’ baby, that sunshine’s good for your teeth!”. 

R.I.P. – Frank Stanton

~ ~ ~ ~ ~

WE WON: One William Traveler Cook, born to Catie & Kevin Cook, mom Catie being our fresh-faced (and evidently quite fertile) new board member having replaced her dad, our co-founder William ‘Bruce’ Van Dyke who blew this pop stand last Fall. Best Jive fishes to Catie & Kevin, our mighty clouds of love are with you!

New Mom tries to explain what ‘air’ is, and why it’s so dry out here.
New boy “W.T.” seen here wondering why all the pillows in the room are so vertical.

Anybody know Frank? Bupid Stastard?

Hey yo out there Jivers in the Central Oregon region of the Jive-O-Sphere!  The ladies up in the Third Floor Marketing Dept. picked Frank’s letter to the (Madras Pioneer) editor for Jiveradio’s Poke-In-The-Chest Letter of The Year. Frank gets a bag of Jiveswag , a Jiveradio Magic Pen and maybe some extra plug wires…if we can find him. If you KNOW Frank, or ARE Frank, write our man Laz: laz@jiveradio.org

And if you know Bupid Stastard, or ARE Bupid, WTF, over?

Some people microwave burritos…

…and some people microwave Jiveradio!

– – OUR BEND (OREGON) MICROWAVE BOOSTER IS BACK! – –

After more than a year of hassles, and many small piles of money, our little booster in Bend (hosted by the great folks at Yellowknife Wireless) is back on, filling in a few of the reception holes & voids around Bend proper where our main signal (from Grizzly Mtn) is blocked by the ever-hulking Awbrey Butte.

Much thanks to our dedicated Cheaph Engineer Tom “It’s Just Physics” Werner and his wingman on Grizzly, Curt The Destroyer.

If you live/drive around Bend, let us know where it’s good and where it’s not: mailto: laz@jiveradio.org

Keep it between the lines, drive it like you stole it, and stay tuned (up)!
