This week, Dave Holmes came to the studio and discussed his awesome story. As a high school freshman, Dave "snuck on" to a local college radio station. From there, he went on to give up a good job in advertising to try to win MTV's "Wanna Be a VJ" contest. Dave came in 2nd place, but that didn't damper his spirits. Hear how Dave parlayed his time on MTV to make connections, and the tenacity that he exhibited to land his dream job. Dave's story truly shows us the power of persistence.
