55 million Americans went Bowling in 2004, up 9% since 1998. However, "serious" league bowling is down, most people just visiting the alley a few times per year. This leaves a lot of time for employees to ponder "the big picture"!

Sure, Bernard’s a bit dorky, but can’t they go a little easier on the poor guy? And what’s a slick Bartender like Johnson doing working in a bowling alley?

Man, Camille is a drag! If you don’t want to work at the bowling alley, for god’s sake, leave! There’s always work at the Post Office...

So what does it mean to be true to yourself? How do we know if we’re in the place that’s right for us, or if we should be seeking out a different destiny? If we can’t ask these questions in a bowling alley, then where?

What on earth is the significance of Lane Number 2? And what’s a “hat trick”? Is your mirror lying to you? Let’s find out.

WBER is a radio station in Rochester, New York, in the Northeastern part of the United States. Anyone in the Rochester area can be a DJ on the station, if they are willing to put the time in.

When a non-commercial radio station needs gear, and it doesn’t have money in the budget, it must turn to the audience and ask for help. When Tim Beideck heard that WBER’s transmitter urgently needed replacing, he decided to turn the premiere of Drivers Wanted into a fundraiser for the station.

Luckily, the fundraiser was a big success, and the movie got a lot of great press. Thousands of dollars were raised; WBER got the transmitter and the gear it needed.

Have you ever known someone who never seemed to be able to keep a job? Everyone loves a funny guy, but not everybody appreciates sarcasm. Let’s drop in on a young New Yorker who, inexplicably, just keeps getting fired.

Talented San Francisco DJ talks about her hometown and how much she’s grown to appreciate it. Often times you have to leave a place to realize how good it really is!

Jim’s known for writing about bible-thumping rural Florida, but it wasn’t until he headed north that his music started to reflect the place he grew up. His ticket out of town was a call from his sister, who had lined up a job for him as a fashion model!

Jim White has mastered a genre of his own making, we like to call it “voodoo honky-tonk.” Note that when Jim says “ole”—that’s southern talk for “old.’ And when Jim sings “sho’ is cool”—that’s how some folks in the American south say “sure is cool.”
