BDN Outdoors staffers to hit the airwaves

Starting this week, you’ll be able to hear a lot more from BDN staffers, as several of us will begin appearing on the radio each afternoon.

John Holyoke and Aislinn Sarnacki are two of the BDN staffers who will make regular appearances on 92.9 "The Ticket" and its afternoon show, "The Drive."

We’re happy to announce that writers — including Aislinn Sarnacki and I from the outdoors desk, will be making regular appearances on The Drive, a show that launched Tuesday on 92.9 FM, “The Ticket,” in Bangor.

The show will be hosted by Jim Churchill, Jeff Solari and Wes Hart, and will air from 4 p.m. until 6 p.m. on weekdays. Either Aislinn or I (or sometimes both) will join in for a regular segment at 4:24 p.m., on Wednesdays and we’ll also pitch in to co-host an hour of the show on a regular basis.

Also joining in for regular appearances on other days: BDN sports staffers Pete Warner, Larry Mahoney, Ernie Clark and Joe McLaughlin.

The radio show will give us a chance to talk a bit about what’s going on in our particular beats, and share our opinions on a variety of topics.

All of us here at the BDN are looking forward to the opportunity to touch base in a new medium, and are eager to help welcome Churchill and his crew to the airwaves in their new endeavor.
