New Image of "Uncle Henry & Gertie the Wonder Pug"

Here's a rendering of Mobile's legendary Henry Pennington from "The Uncle Henry Show" and his faithful sidekick, Gertie! I have several variations, and am trying color combinations and different styles!

"The Adventures of UNCLE HENRY and GERTIE!"

Here's a version promoting the radio broadcast, as well as the web and live streaming versions:

The Uncle Henry Show, featuring Gertie the sniffling Pug!

The UNCLE HENRY Show

Weekdays broadcast on Newsradio710AM from 5AM-8AM

Streaming the web at www.livestream.com/unclehenry from 5AM til 9AM.

LAGNIAPPE Debate Coverage 'Disses' Dr. Brown?

The Lagniappe Newspaper, the bi-weekly publication that dubs itself "Something Extra For Mobile", showed a complete lack of respect for mayoral candidate Dr. Doris Brown on their website coverage (which can be seen HERE .) following Tuesday night's debate.
The article, written by Katie Nichols, extensively documents the experienced and well-thought-out responses of both incumbent Mayor Sam Jones and challenger Sandy Stimpson, while completely ignoring the colorful and imaginative Brown. Could this be some hidden agenda or liberal media bias...?
I seriously doubt it.
Apparently, Lagniappe chooses to actually cover THE ISSUES, rather than the 'pie-in-the-sky' ramblings of this character who migrated from Detroit with a store-bought on-line 'doctorate' and a hairpiece to rival that of NewsRadio710AM's Uncle Henry.
Oh, and little or no actual knowledge of Mobile or the workings of civic government.

Good call, Lagniappe.

"Norman" Appears on "The Uncle Henry Show"

"The Uncle Henry Show" featured "Norman" as a guest this morning from 6:00 a.m until 8:00 a.m. 'on the air' at WNTM NewsRadio710AM, and for the internet hour from 8:00 a.m. until 9:00 over at www.newsradio710.com.

Topics ranged from Obamacare & health insurance, gospel music, crime and Mobile police effectiveness to the 'Moonpie Drop' and- of course- to blimps.

"Alabama Football recruiting" was also a topic, for good measure.

NewsRadio 710 Trying to Kill Uncle Henry...?

Well, with the acquisition of both Glenn Beck AND Sean Hannity, 710WNTM (aka Newsradio710) has not only shortened the popular Uncle Henry Show, they've moved the last hour-- 8am to 9am-- to INTERNET ONLY! And if you don't have high-speed internet or the latest browser, you STILL can't listen!

Now, don't get me wrong. I LOVE to listen to BOTH of those guys. But the LOCAL listeners in the Mobile radio market WANT to hear Uncle Henry. He has a long-term connection to his VERY loyal audience. He is the main reason most people I know listen to talk radio.

I'm glad that we finally have this powerful and conservative lineup, but it is unfortunate that it comes at the expense of the station's elder statesman and Mobile's most-respected moral compass.
