Each week a Disc Jockey from East Stroudsburg University’s radio station, 90.3 WESS, is selected as DJ of the week for their exceptional performance and hard work on the air.
This week’s DJs of the Week are Jackie Jordan and Danielle Tagliaferro for their radio show Flintunes.
Jordan and Taliaferro reign from North Philadelphia. Jordan is currently a sophomore studying Biology with a focus in Pre-medicine and Tagliaferro is currently a sophomore studying Communication with a focus in Broadcasting and Mass media at East Stroudsburg University.
The inspiration for their show stems from their love of music and they enjoy the free expression WESS offers on air.
“I never thought I would enjoy radio this much and I love being able to share my music with other people” Tagliaferro said in an interview.
Each week they work to make their show standout out from the other programming and they focus their show towards the art of spontaneity.
Tagliaferro said “we try to stand out and have no idea how to stick with one theme.” “Even we don’t know what we’re going to play next” Jordan said.
Jordan and Tagliaferro’s favorite aspect about WESS are the people involved and the fun atmosphere surrounding WESS.
“Everyone is so easy to get along with and you feel like you are part of a family right away” Jordan said. Their aspirations for the future vary where Tagliaferro hopes to continue learning and growing as a broadcaster and Jordan is striving to become an ER nurse.
Listeners can catch Jackie Jordan and Danielle Tagliaferro’s show, Flintunes, Mondays at 7 p.m. on 90.3 WESS via the radio, or they can stream WESS over the web at tunein.com/radio/WESS.
For those who cannot listen to Flintunes at its original time can listen to internet podcasts of the show by going to Radiofreeamerica.com and searching WESS.
