Childhood Fears: There's Nothing to be Scared Of

This is a big, important day for our fall fundraiser, There's Nothing to be Scared Of. We had an excellent opening day/weekend and need to build the momentum up for the last 5 days. Listener support is our single largest source of funding, and it's small contributions from people just like you that make community radio/media possible.

We're talking about childhood fears today, and one of Scott Hall's came true during the Morning Show today.

As a child, Scott worried about hitting his shins. It scared the hell out of him. And twice, TWICE, this morning, he walked into the stage that is still set up from the Karen Savoca and Pete Heitzman concert last Friday. Not only is he working hard on local news and announcements, but he's battling himself both physically and emotionally [see photo].

What did you fear as a child? Is it something you overcame, or is it still with you? Do you look back and laugh, or cry? Leave a comment and let us know, or email comments@kaxe.org.

From a true mix of music, chosen by volunteers from all over Northern MN, where you really could hear anything at anytime to the high quality, hyper-local stories and features about the people that make this such a unique and beautiful place to live. Whether you listen for 10 minutes a day or 10 hours a week, you already know the amazing things that KAXE does - and now we need you to overcome your fear and pledge your support. 218-326-1234, 800-662-5799 or pledge online.
