The Radio industry will no longer have any “private parts” once readers finish “The Cash Cage”, a new book by Corey Deitz.
Deitz, a 25-year Radio veteran, dishes the dirt on an army of wanderers who spin tunes, give the time and temp, take the requests and when the pressure is on are easily discarded by a cutthroat business that disguises itself as your favorite song.
“I wrote this book for both listeners and people in Radio,” says Deitz, “because in this business the real show starts when the mike turns OFF.”
Corey Deitz has hosted radio shows in Chicago, Cleveland, Columbus, Richmond, Virginia Beach, St. Louis, Toledo, Little Rock and other cities. He has experienced all facets of the Radio business from top to bottom.
“The Cash Cage” reveals it all: the deejays, the egos, the backstabbing, the celebrities, the glory of winning and the dejection of failure.
From practically living in poverty in Pennsylvania to being fired and given a year’s severance pay in Chicago, Deitz’s casual and humorous style ushers the reader behind the scenes of a business where logical decisions are sometimes “missing in action”.
“The Cash Cage” is a captivating trip through an exciting medium held together by an odd lot of gypsies who move from city-to-city in an incessant struggle for ratings, income, and acceptance.
Deitz’s story is also a “how to” manual on confronting life head-on. Based on his own accumulation of hard-knock knowledge, he offers a good dose of street smarts, wisdom, and philosophy from which anyone can benefit.
