Talking Things Quote by H Kraabel
““3. Always have at least two local topics, two national topics, two entertainment/information stories, and at least one personal story ready to go before you’re on the air. Try to incorporate one of these in each break. Just one though, talking about too many things in each break is exhausting for both you and the listeners. ””

![“I've never been that uncomfortable talking about it. Things come out [in the media] about me. When it's out, it's someone else's version of what's the matter with me. I want it to be my version of what it is. My recourse is to do my version.” quote by Carrie Fisher](https://sms4smile.com/quotes/img-quotes/be6/carrie-fisher-927_matter_i-ve-never-been-that-uncomfortable-talki_526552.jpg)
