1) What do you do to maintain a positive mental attitude and stay motivated?
Pray, Exercise, Self-talk ... although its kind of embarrassing getting busted having a conversation with myself in the middle of Starbucks.
2) How are you occupying your time, besides looking for a job?
Watching a lot of movies, extended workouts at the gym, learning Spanish, and eating.
3) Some people get discouraged or enlightened with the business when they actually step out of it for a while. Tell us your observations from the outside.
That's the nature of the beast. I've dealt with it for 25 years. I'm not ready to auction off my headphones on Ebay yet.

Hopefully, radio's one of my passions. If worse comes to worse, I have a Bachelors Degree in Management that I could put to use. I also would like to get more involved in my other passions: acting and print work
5) What's the longest stretch you've had on the beach?
A couple of months
6) What's the best way to get your foot in the door?
Push using both arms. The feet will naturally follow

Friends in the industry.
8) What is the next job you'd like to obtain?
Well, I'd like to be part of a morning show ...ultimately I just would like to get back on the air.
9) What's the most unbelievable question you've ever been asked in an interview?
This is more of a live audition question: "Would you mind screaming into the microphone at the top of your lungs?"

I consider myself uniquely witty and creative. As far as I know there's only one Matt Hubbell guy.
