Cody Glaser (KKOW, Pittsburg, KS) has been in radio for over six years and in that time, he’s done “a little bit of everything around the station jumping in and helping out wherever needed.” He explained, “I've been our production manager, traffic assistant, on-air personality, and now Ag Director.” In describing himself, he said, “I have a general love for broadcasting regardless of what the subject line may be…agriculture, news, music, or weather. I enjoy gathering and delivering the information that our listeners depend on.” He feels that nothing is more exciting than a listener calling to say, “Letting us know about that storm update really helped out,” or “Our farm depends on your market numbers every day.
“Personally, as far as agriculture goes, I always say you can’t live in southeast Kansas your entire life without picking up a little bit about farming. My family owned a cattle farm when I was growing up, but since then I haven’t really had a whole lot of agriculture experience. With that being said, in the past month I've had the opportunity to learn so much. It’s amazing how being part of the agriculture community is a lot like being in a big family, which has been the best part about this job so far. I really don’t consider myself as being a broadcaster…just someone who gets up every morning and has a conversation with friends telling them what I've learned, who I've talked to, what the market numbers look like for the day, and events coming up that could be a help around the farm.”
