Q & A with Robert John

If you could hear anyone in history give a speech, whom would you hear?

That’s easy; I would like to hear Abraham Lincoln recite the Gettysburg Address. Even though it only lasted a bit over 2 minutes, it was one of the most eloquent, pertinent dedications in our history.

 Which is the one television character that you simply admire?

Jennifer Love Hewitt from Ghost Whisperer

 What place in the US would you most like to visit? Why?

I have been fortunate in being able to visit most parts of the contiguous U.S. as well as Hawaii and Alaska. However, I would love to go back to Alaska and explore more of that diverse and beautiful state.

 What’s your favorite cereal?

I am not much of a breakfast person, but when I do eat cereal, I like “Honey Bunches of Oats.”

 What is the silliest prank you have ever played on someone?

When I worked at a station in Orlando, our boss, the General Manager used to always play our radio station in his office prior to the department heads meetings. I had the on-air talent fake a broadcast where he lambasted the company, staff and the GM and further said he quit right then and there. Following this was dead silence on the recording. I snuck into our GM’s office and put the recording in his CD player so he thought it was his radio. When the air talent went on his tirade, I thought our GM was going to lose his mind. By the way, that manager and I are still good friends today even though we have both moved on to other positions.
