I've heard you guys in the post office, in the hospital, you guys are everywhere, which is why we advertise through the chamber a lot with you guys.

And let's talk a little bit about that because people advertise in all different ways.

I mean, I think people still listen a lot to the radio and you guys play amazing music and you got the Orioles games all the time.

Sometimes, you know, at home, at work, you've got the radio on and you don't realize how much of what you're hearing is sinking in.
