Hosted by Laura Cathcart Robbins, a writer and a recovery thriver and survivor, Laura found herself in an all too familiar position. In September 2018, she was the only black woman in the room at Brave Magic, a famed writer’s retreat. After it was over, she wrote about her “only one” experience in The Huffington Post and comments started flooding into her DM. These comments were from people from all races, ethnicities, creeds, and nationalities who had felt “othered”. Laura beautifully inter ...

What It's Like To Be a TV News Anchor and Reporter
Manage episode 349668209 series 2991391

When I was 28 years old, I packed up my things and moved to Billings, Montana to become a television news anchor and reporter. I knew I was getting out of my comfort zone, but I had no idea how far. The person who helped me through it--my colleague, Jonathan Marcus--is my guest on this episode. We reminisce about our experiences working in local news; living in Montana; and realize that over the years we've both had the same idea: that we should write a screenplay or a novel--or something... because truly, as our experience working at KULR-8 showed us, the truth can be stranger than fiction. From the one-armed cameraguy who prowled the Montana highways all night long looking for footage, to the inappropriate news director; from drinking on the job to getting hit on in local bars... you can't make this stuff up. And we didn't.
In this episode:
- How Jon ended up in Montana (02:21)
- Elizabeth's initial impressions of the station (and of Jon) (04:04)
- Some of the craziness that took place at the station (09:28)
- How Jon saved Elizabeth her first time anchoring (13:10)
- Being recognized around town (16:00)
- Elizabeth's experience being critiqued for superficial qualities (23:03)
- What should you do if you want to get into the business? (28:48)
- Nerf ball in the newsroom + other stories (31:01)
- Jon's excellent renegotiation skills (34:20)
