Find the Right Jeans for You in Albany

GNA — Thu, 22 Sep 2011 13:54:31 +0000

It really stinks when you are in desperate need of a new pair of jeans or a certain style and it’s absolutely impossible to find 1) a pair you like, and 2) a pair that actually looks good on you. I also hate it when I’m trying to shop for a good pair and the image [...]

"Over the Edge" Going Down Tomorrow

GNA — Thu, 15 Sep 2011 18:00:14 +0000

The months and weeks have gone by and it’s just about time for my rappeling debut in honor in “Over the Edge“ for the Special Olympics of New York. That’s right, in less than 24 hours I will be rappeling 18 stories (180-feet) down the Crowne Plaza Hotel in downtown Albany. The questions of whether I’m going to [...]

GNA — Wed, 07 Sep 2011 16:45:07 +0000

There's just nine days left until I will be climbing over the top of the Crowne Plaza Hotel's roof and rappelling 18 stories (yes, I said 18 stories) down to North Pearl Street below.

Casey's Latest Favorite Country Song [AUDIO]

GNA — Sat, 13 Aug 2011 14:01:31 +0000

If you love Countryfest 2011 headliner, Miranda Lambert, you’re going to love her latest single that we are playing here on Country 107.7 WGNA-FM. The song is called, “Baggage Claim” and what a hysterical, yet awesome song! Even if you haven’t jumped on the Miranda bandwagon yet, I bet you do after hearing this single. [...]

Push Casey Danton 'Over the Edge'

GNA — Fri, 05 Aug 2011 20:30:04 +0000

Four weeks ago, I wrote a blog about how I have accepted the challenge of going "Over the Edge" in support of Special Olympics of New York.

Casey Danton Needs Your Help For Special Olympics Charity

GNA — Sat, 23 Jul 2011 08:30:46 +0000

About two weeks ago, I accepted the challenge from Special Olympics to participate in “Over the Edge.” I blogged about the challenge and what exactly I’m going to have to do. However, I still haven’t even gotten close to my goal. Each “edger” must raise $1,000 in order to rappel off the Crowne Plaza in downtown [...]

Casey's Favorite Keith Urban Song [VIDEO]

GNA — Mon, 18 Jul 2011 12:55:16 +0000

I would have to say most of Keith Urban’s songs are more popular with the ladies than with the men. This is probably since he is a “dreamy” country star who sings about a woman and about love, would you agree? However, the man can jam out on a guitar probably better than anyone I’ve ever seen in concert. I [...]

Fashion Tips You NEED for WGNA's Countryfest 2011

GNA — Fri, 08 Jul 2011 12:48:32 +0000

So earlier this week I mentioned cowboy hats and how they have a typical appearance at Countryfest every year. They aren’t necessity, but let’s be real, who goes to a country music concert and not have on a cowboy hat. However, I know — some people aren’t really the hat wearing type of people. There are other [...]

Even The Guys on 'The Sean & Richie Show' Rate Attractiveness [AUDIO]

GNA — Thu, 07 Jul 2011 13:12:12 +0000

In case you missed the start to our show today, the guys were very surprised I didn’t bring my “A-game” to the show this morning because we were expecting a special guest on the show. Typically, I like to know when we are having a client, country singer, or special guest from the outside in on [...]

News Auditions on WGNA [AUDIO]

Sean McMaster — Thu, 30 Jun 2011 14:51:50 +0000

This is the kind of trouble we get into on the “Sean and Richie Show”, we think out loud on the air and the whole thing takes a life of it’s own. Casey mentioned that she was taking a few days off and her normal replacement wasn’t available. So we said, hey why not have [...]

Creepy Co-workers [AUDIO]

GNA — Fri, 06 May 2011 12:57:05 +0000

This morning on the Sean & Richie show, the four of us had quite an interesting, early morning conversation that just turned plain creepy. In case you missed it or weren’t up early enough to catch the boys and me, here is the audio of the break that turned into something none of us expected. The more I listen [...]

What to Do With a Written Confession

GNA — Thu, 28 Apr 2011 12:56:35 +0000

You know when you watch a television show and you get about three-quarters of the way through the show and you really should get going, but you just want to know how the show ends? Well, I kind of feel that way when it comes to my particular situation. Yesterday, in case you missed it, I [...]

What to Do When a Co-Worker Uses Your Coffee Mug

GNA — Wed, 27 Apr 2011 12:41:39 +0000

It amazes me at how rude people can be, especially those you work with, when given the opportunity to choose between going hungry or thirsty, or taking what is not their’s. I worked in a professional office before this job for five-years and one of my colleagues resorted to putting a mini-frig in their office just so no [...]

Inside The Mind Of A Intern

Levack — Mon, 14 Mar 2011 20:52:33 +0000

From time to time we bring in interns. These young men and women come and "work" in exchange for knowledge. Just about all of us have been there. It's a tough and thankless job but if you work hard and impress you never know what will come out of it. We currently have the pleasure of Kristina interning with us. I thought it would be good for Kristina to write to you. Here's what she wrote.
