The KJHK Story

Image
  You are now tuned in to your favorite KU radio station on your FM dial. This is… I know what you’re thinking. How did you get to listen to KJHK for the first time on the radio? Well to explain, I’ll tell you. It all started the first time Stephanie and I were just hanging out together inside the car listening to the radio ready to go places. When we turned on the music when the car started, and suddenly out came KJHK. Ever since we started listening to the radio, we listened to that station all the time before I listened to my favorite radio stations too. It was so authentic and totally independent. In case you wanna know more, hear this. KJHK is a campus radio station, located in Lawrence, Kansas at the University of Kansas.  On December 3, 1994, the station became one of the first radio stations in the world to broadcast a live and continuous stream over  internet radio.  It currently broadcasts at 2600 watts, with a broadcast area covering most of northeast Kansas.

  We interrupt this program to bring you a special Bonus Blog Hey there boys and girls! Please put your hands together for...The Majestics Rhythm Revue! [imitating crowd cheering noise] I have called you here today for an imortant announcement to make. I'd thought maybe it would be a really really really really, REALLY great idea to come up with an idea on a music video for the song 'Sweat Like James Brown' by The Majestics Rhythm Revue. You've heard their music off of their first album Digga! Digga!, and now the time has come to talk about it. We're gonna take to the streets of downtown Lawrence and do a lot of filming here. What we need is a video camera for the footage, the song on my iPad, and someone to star in my next music video idea. Here’s who I’m gonna audition to star. Since I’m the director for this idea. Thom Alexander (My dad) Lois Orth-Lopes Sebastian Alfie The good folks from Americana Music Academy Kurt Henning & Elizabeth Tally Eric & Jill

My First House Party

  Hey everybody, you’ll never guess what I just remembered from that time when I lived in Lawrence. At the Learnard house where my family and I lived there, I had an idea of throwing my first dance party here in Lawrence and my mom and dad agreed with me on that. This time, I made it into a Nickelodeon theme. The first thing I did before this happened is to invite my friends from school and my neighbors. When I handed out my invitations to my friends, they agreed on that for the very first time. I even invited my friend Katie Altenbern to join us for my first dance party. I picked the songs from the artists I love listening to. It was in the year 2000 when I held my first dance party at my house. It was awesome, and everyone was invited there. Mrs. Orth-Lopes was there, even Stephanie was there, Sebastian, Ms. Kitchen, and everyone else was there too. Even my friends from Cordley were also there. We had a really fun time, except for the fact that the power went out. It was really weird

The Super Bowl! Let’s Go!

  Hello and welcome to another edition of this week’s Lawrence Kansas Blog. Today we’re gonna discuss on this important topic that we’re gonna talk about. That is…  The Super Bowl! Every February, this event in football history is held. When it comes to Super Bowl Sunday, it’s always nice to be prepared for the big game. This year, the Kansas City Chiefs take on the San Francisco 49ers here in Las Vegas! I’ll be watching it this time here on Nickelodeon to see who will win. My family and I are rooting for the Chiefs to win. And we’re counting on Patrick Mahomes because he’s one of our favorites. Now if I were to go to the football game in Kansas City, I’d take my family including my dad, or maybe bring my friends with me there. That way we can all enjoy football together. When I do, I think of many way to enjoy the football game on a daily basis. You should know that whenever there’s a football game on TV, it’s always nice for us to watch it. And for everyone to see it live. Did you kn
