From a local news perspective Connecticut was the gift that just kept giving this year. The stories were so odd, so unbelievably authentic that they are burned into my brain. I think these 30 stories are a great bookmark for where Connecticut is, and where we're headed. Just for the sake of clarity, that is not a good thing.

I love my job, the best part of my day is turning on my computer when I get to work and sifting through the news, deciding what stories I want to discuss on the radio show. It is all about the anticipation of what the day will bring and the observations we might make. My show preparation process is always the same but the results can vary wildly based on the news in front of me.

Once the stories are selected I start coordinating where they will appear in the show and I label and collate them. Finally, it is time to pace around the room and chat about them with my morning show partners Ethan and Dave. We identify what we have and how we might approach each story, it really brings me so much joy. Maybe I need to be looked at?
