Hey fellow Bob & Sheri Super Fans --

Whether you've been a dedicated listener for decades or you're a new fan to the show, I am sure you know you are part of something truly special. From the shared laughs, celebrations, aggravations, and occasional tears -- to the lists, spooky science, movie reviews, cats, first-time callers, cars in pools, and the song "Jolene" -- this show becomes a part of all our lives ... maybe our DNA. Is this a cult?

As you probably know, The Bob & Sheri Show has been nominated for the prestigious National Association of Broadcasters Marconi Award ten times. And if you know that, you definitely know that they have never won one. Come on, Marconi!

But we have great news! The Museum of Broadcast Communications announced that our beloved Bob and Sheri Show is being inducted into the Radio Hall of Fame for 2025 on October 30th, in Chicago. This is the most prestigious award a radio show can earn. We are so excited to see them take their seats amongst history's radio greats, right where they belong!

A few of us are quietly cooking up a way to honor the team and celebrate the joy and laughter they've brought to listeners all these years. We want to invite you to be a part of this, but we want to keep it a surprise for the team. For the event, each inductee receives a commemorative book that includes ad space. The museum sells these ads to cover event expenses. We found out that anyone can purchase an ad. So, we're raising funds to cover the expenses for a full-page ad congratulating the team with a little love from the fans. We are only sad that we won't be able to see their faces when they see it.

Next, as you can imagine, the travel expenses for this acclaimed event are steep when you consider the journey to Chicago, lodging, tickets, tables at the event. This is a tremendous honor, but the museum is a non-profit organization. They cannot cover any expenses for inductees.

The Museum of Broadcast Communications website shows the cost of an ad is $3,000. Tables are between $7,200 - $8,500. The whole crew will be going, Bob, Sheri, Lamar, Max, Heather, Doc, and Tony, and all their +1s. Each one of them has worked so hard over the years to bring this show to life, keep it floating in some of the toughest times (coughs ... *COVID*) and make it one of the most successful radio programs of all time. We'd really love to help offset these costs for them and give them a little something as a token of our gratitude.

Remember! We want to keep this under wraps——so please don’t spill the beans! Only Tony and Heather are in the loop (after hours of begging and arm twisting). We all know this crew is humble and gracious and would never let us do this if they knew what we were dreaming up. But we are going for it because we know how much this would help them, as they are a small business doing MIGHTY things.

If you are as excited as we are to pitch in, we'd be so grateful. We know times are tough for all of us, so anything you feel moved to give is more than enough. We know we have a big goal in mind. At minimum we hope to ensure we cover the ad. If we can really shoot for the stars, anything more will be put towards offsetting other costs and a something special for the team.

Thank you for being the heart of our community and for helping us show our gratitude to Bob & Sheri Show. ❤️
