“Chuck and Cody’s Sports Report” a dream come true!
The Florida Writer is a media conglomeration combining various types of news coverage such as newspaper, magazine, and internet articles, as well as radio broadcasts. From the “Po Dunk ” towns of central Florida covering high school football games, to highly acclaimed magazines such as “Life on the Coast” and “Distinguished Lifestyles,” Now, “The Florida Writer” is proud to announce it’s latest media venture, “Chuck & Cody’s Sports Report”
From an early age, Chuck Asbury often dreamed of either being a sports reporter, calling a big league game on the radio as an announcer, or hosting his own sports show. Late each night, he would lay quietly under his covers listening to the Atlanta Braves on his little AM radio, with the single ear piece tucked in tight. Each night, he would fall asleep dreaming of what it would be like to…zzzzzz.
But life has a way of changing our dreams, and taking us places where we never dreamed of going. The responsibilites, and the hustle and bustle of everyday life can swallow up our dreams, and many dreams are often forgotten. Somewhere along the way, Chuck forgot his dream. He forgot his dream, and in the process forgot his wish. But God didn’t!
Flash forward 30 plus years…
Now with the help of WNZF, and several outstanding sponsors, that childhood fantasy has become a reality. Starting on February 21th 2009, “Chuck and Cody’s Sports Report” will air live each Saturday morning from 10:00am-10:30am, simultaneously on Flagler County’s 106.3 FM, 1550 AM, and worldwide, through the use of streaming audio on the WNZF website at www.wnzf.com. To make the dream even sweeter, Chuck’s son, Cody, will help co-host the show.
The 30 minute show will consist of four quarters of sporting news, with the first three quarters consisting of, local, state, and national news including special quests. The last quarter of the show is called “Breaking The Code.” During this special segment of the show, three callers will have the opportunity to ask Cody (age 15) any question from one of four categories(Football, Baseball, Basketball or Nascar) All trivia questions must have taken place historically after December 1993, when Cody was born. If any caller is able to come up with a question that Cody cannot answer, and the “Code is Broken” then that caller will receive a free gift, compliments of “Chuck and Cody’s Sports Report.” Finally, the show will launch into a two minute scramble called “Overtime” when Cody will answer fan e-mail and/or Chuck will read a brief sports editorial, or the two hosts will debate a sports topic to close out the show.
“Chuck and Cody’s Sports Report” is also committed to donating to the “Make-A-Wish Foundation.” Since 1980, The Make-A-Wish Foundation has given hope, strength, and joy to children with life-threatening medical conditions.
The show is sponsored by Bible Baptist Church, New Beginnings Salon & Spa, The Florida Writer, Tom Gibbs Chevrolet, and Woody’s BBQ. If you are interested in being a sponsor of “Chuck and Cody’s Sports Report” please e-mail Chuck at cja@flawriter.com
