Be Great.
In my 30 years of hosting radio and television programs I have received the same question no less than 10,000 times if I’ve heard it once: “Darrell, how can I get into radio.” And I usually take the time to tell them how I did it—which was to go to market 282 and work the overnight shift for nothing. The rest is hard work and determination. That’s the key. Right now the country is in turmoil and I’ll bet you’ve asked yourself “what else can I do?” What else can you do? What else can little old me—stupid as a fly do if this job suddenly stops? Sorry, but that’s what it sounds like. The easy answer first: make a list of things you’re good at and could earn money doing and start looking for a new gig or—and this is the harder one—believe in yourself. And, yes, this is much more difficult. Your first obstacle is getting past the BS you sell yourself about not enough schooling or training. Man that’s lame. Believe in yourself. I don’t know how many jobs I’ve won over the years because I owned the room when it was my turn to talk. Look at the cars around you—now look at the zombies driving them. Is this really the rest of your life? You were made for excellence. You were made to be better than all that.Today. Before the sunsets. Sit down with a pad of paper and an ink pen and dream. Whatever pops into your head gets written down. Read the list out loud from this morning until tomorrow morning and I’ll tell you what to do next. I’m not kidding. Be a winner or be zombie—your call. Ankarlo’s Take is written for broadcast. You can hear it here or live during Arizona’s Morning News at 7:20 on News/Talk 92.3 KTAR.

stop talking about your house and your book we are tied of it .please talk about things of intrest. there are a few things going on in the city and state to talk about yes???
Good Morning to you Ankarlo, I very much enjoy listening to your show.
I wanted to comment on the proposed teacher layoffs. What is the root cause for this issue as well as others in Arizona? This budget deficit that is forcing layoffs across our cities, counties and state is due to the fact that we are trying to provide services for too many people. Children of illegal immigrants cannot be turned away from schools and medical facilities. Their parents are taking jobs that could be filled by our current legal unemployed population.
I challenge the news staff at KTAR to compile figures related to illegal immigrant population vs current unemployed totals. I feel there is a direct correlation.
It is also obvious that some “leaders” in our state are riding the coattails of the pro immigration followers.
Thanks for your time and the chance to get this off of my chest.
Scott
^^^huh?????
great points darrell! we must make happen what we want to happen for us. and stay positive!
Mr Ankarlo,
First off, let me thank you for your program, which I do NOT miss.
What I am interested in finding out from YOU, is HOW do I meet with like minded people to support sheriff Joe?! I
I believe Sharpton is NOT an accident nor do I believe he is acting alone. No coincidence that Gordon compared sheriff Arpio to the people of the south in the 60’s, and NOW we hear from sharpton, the BIGGEST race pimp our history?! I think NOT!
I think this is a CRITICAL turning point in ILLEGAL IMMIGRATION, therefore I want to be ACTIVELY involved in ANY way to stop this attack against sheriff Joe . HOW do we get like minded citizens togetther to MARCH for sheriff Joe? I WILL be there, I WILL supply my own signs, I WILL help anyone that wants to get there. PLEASE, help us to meet .
Will someone please get Roger his medication?
Love ‘ya Darrell!! I’m following you on TWITTER NONSENSE as Abandoned1 !! Big Tom from Mesa / -Tom
Oh non-great Roger. You should be an astronaut. You take up a lot of “space”. I wish you just had something interesting to say. Repeating yourself so many times…are you talking in an echo chamber or a cave? Maybe you should be in that cave with the lights off.
Your rhetoric is annoying and you never have a good point. I hope you get a real life soon.
Craig-Ray maybe you didn’t listen to the show! Maybe you were attempting to finally pass the AIMS test so that you could “qualify” for a scholarship at a local University or College near you! I feel for you, because if I wanted to, I could of been an astronaut! I thank you for the thoughtful sixth sense you possess.
Everything I have to say can be of interest, maybe not to you, but to many.
You see you have to have better understanding of ones ability to communicate and how they communicate. I do. It’s like this! Oh Great Craig Ray, man with two names! You can call me Craig or your can call Ray. You can C Ray or your can call me just Ray! You can call me Craig R or you can call me Ray C as in racey.
