Spotlight on Holiday Guilt; Meteorologists flaunting their pregnant bellies. It’s an epidemic!

KNKX Blues music host, John Kessler, shares his favorite 2024 releases, going one better, with his top 11…KISW’s LIVE NIGHT is set for Friday the 13th. The Daly-Migs Show & The Mens Room will appear along with live bands. It’s happening at Showbox SoDo…WARM 106.9 is well into their Christmas music phase and someone at corporate or marketing decided they better cover their asses concerning this blatantly Christian celebration. So, there is a disclaimer on the KBKS FM website:
“While we ARE Seattle’s CHRISTMAS Station 🎄🎄🎄 We certainly honor those that will celebrate Hanukkah that begins ON Christmas 12/25 this year! Christmas staples Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer, Rockin Around the Christmas Tree, Holly Jolly Christmas and Winter Wonderland were all written by Jewish songwriters…”

Lindsay Riley @ 12 News KPNX/Phoenix dares to stand in front of the camera in the physical state she is in. Oh, the humanity!

Abby Acone (meteorologist and not pregnant, last we heard) is part-time or as-needed anchor at FOX 13 KCPQ. Traffic anchor Adam Gehrke was recently promoted to an anchor/reporter position. So, is this an hourly wage differential for Abby? I think the job description for meteorologist and anchor/reporter positions need to be clarified. Nothing is set in stone, more like Play-Doh.

Mike Nelson (ABC7-DENVER) retired this week. Nelson, originally from Madison, Wisconsin, began his career in 1976 with the Wisconsin-based weather consulting firm Weather Central, where he developed a transformative weather graphics system built for television. In the following years, he installed weather computers at over 50 TV stations nationwide.

One of his trainees was none other than Al Roker, the longtime network meteorologist. Then, Nelson brought the first ever weather computer to Denver, where he trained longtime Colorado forecaster Stormy Rottman.

The Weather Central system is still the most widely used system in the U.S. and beyond to this day. Nelson left Weather Central to become the chief meteorologist at KMOV-TV in St. Louis in 1985. He moved to Denver in 1991 and served as Chief Meteorologist at KUSA before moving across Speer Boulevard to Denver7 in 2004.
