Making his way back to work
Photo Courtesy of RWFester made his way back to the studio today after being at Tampa General Hospital last week. We are so proud of him.
He has been dealing with his myasthenia gravis. It is pronounced "my-us-THEE-nee-uh GRAY-vis." He had a bout of it years ago on the first iteration of the MJ Morning Show. He was in the hospital for a longer period of time then. MG causes his face to droop, causes him weakness, and the rapid fatigue comes on very quickly. A lot is still unknown as to what causes it, but it is believed to be caused by a breakdown in nerve and muscle communication.
It was a beautiful moment when Fester came through the doors at Beasley and then made his way up through the elevator, which is now working for him.
The show is not the same without him. We miss his quick wit, imitations of Shaq, and dry humor, though today it was more sloshy than dry.
Good Times At The Beasley Media Group Holiday Party At The Godfrey Hotel In Tampa
Do you enjoy work holiday parties or dread them? Sometimes it may feel like a "have to" or a "check the box." But I have to tell you, we had a BLAST at the work party last night.
I guess MJ got there early and I arrived late, so we didn't see each other. And Fester and Froggy were at another event last night and could not make it. So most of these pics are me mingling with my other friends in the building (outside of the MJ Morning Show). It really was nice to see everyone out relaxing and having a good time. Nothing but good vibes and authenticity. I feel hashtag blessed to work with such great people. Let me introduce you to them. (Some you may know from the show.)
Here's a photo of me chatting with Marc Zallis. He is part of the sales team.

Marc is so passionate about what he does, and he listens to our show every day, which we truly appreciate.
MJ and Marc are in deep conversation.

Probably talking shop and doing some endorsement/sales strategizing.
If you are a longtime fan of the MJ Morning Show, of course you know this beauty.

Did you also know that Meredith is one of my BFF's? We are close friends on and off-air. She is my rock at work! Love her!
So much red in the previous photo.

We had to pull our girl Cristy from Maxima and News Channel 8 into our photo. Here's another woman I absolutely love to work with!
You may not recognize these folks, but you know two of their voices if you listen to the show.

Cristy. Buck our video guy in the middle and his lovely wife. And that's our PD Ted on the end! Well...

Here's Doug and another one of my favorite Beasley Media Group people.

Jeff Zito is a DJ on the Shark. He does an amazing job...super cool guy and Doug is close friends with his brother.
