Recognizing Michael Hendricks and Melissa Bell

 

Be Kind To One Another

Today we are recognizing Michael Hendricks who saved a 9 month old baby and Melissa Bell’s quote on how we can be kind to one another.

She told 100.3 Sound FM CKMS Radio Waterloo, “When I yelled for help and for someone to call 911, the other patrons simply sat and stared at me like I was crazy, and no one reached for their phones. We are so suspicious of every one out there that is a stranger. I think we could mend those bridges by simply saying ‘hello’ to ppl you pass on the street. We’re so wrapped up in out own lives and stresses that someone’s accidentally bumping into you is a personal insult and so often the reaction is anger. Let’s reconnect to those around us by being polite and saying, ‘hi’!”

I also shared some kindness stories brought to you by goodnewsnetwork.org along with the interview of Karli Walters and Michael Hendricks courtesy of Global News. You can also read the other article on 570 News where Michael Hendricks and Karli Walters were also interviewed as well since Michael Hendricks saved the life of a 9 month old baby.

Furthermore, I have also posted the interview of Jane Elliott as well and I played that on my show as well.

Enjoy the show and enjoy your week as well as your weekend! :).

Cheers!

Michael Hendricks saves 9 month old baby

Hero Michael

On August 1, 2016, Michael Hendricks was working at Kelsey’s on Ottawa Street when he answered a call of a 9 month old baby that was choking. He gave the baby some blows to the back and he saved the baby’s life. The baby was crying and was able to breathe.

Members of the Kitchener-Waterloo community are organizing a petition to ask Kitchener City Council to honour Mr. Hendricks for his act of bravery and his efforts in saving that baby’s life. The full story can be found at

https://www.facebook.com/KWspottings/

Once again, thank you very much Michael and thank you very much to the Region of Waterloo community for your efforts and kindness in recognizing Michael for his heroism. He has received an award from me and the SoundFM community. Way to go buddy! :).

Ward 5 counsellor Kelly Galloway-Sealock made a statement to me after I emailed the petition. She said,

“Thanks for your message. I will work with the Mayor to see what we can do on behalf of the city to recognize Michael’s heroism. I saw the post on Spotted and it sounds like he was the right person to assist and took over the situation. Thank you for bringing this to our attention.”

I want to also thank all citizens in the City of Kitchener and Region of Waterloo for your assistance in getting Kitchener City Council to honour Michael Hendricks. We all appreciate all of your efforts.

Our petition can be found on:

http://www.thepetitionsite.com/en-gb/178/575/248/honour-michael-hendricks-as-a-hero/

We ask all members of the community to sign the petition so that we can get Kitchener City Council to honour him. This is what Michael Hendrix had to say, “Truly humbled!”

He also said to Spotted In K-W, “Glad to see that you and your son are doing well! I was happy to assist you. Take care!!”

2nd Annual Beer Tasting Competition

ContestantsThis past #COTM marked the “Second Annual Beer Tasting Competition”. Reigning Champion DJ Plan B was in studio competing to defend his title as the Worlds best Beer sampler. DJ Mattador who was also at the last competition was on hand to try and bounce back from his performance in last year.

In addition to these two athletes, DJ Jazzy TBD and DJ MuuTuu (aka DJ Reliable Son) won their way through the beer drinking ranks in the region for a chance to take on the champ.

The Brewery this year was the Block Three Brewing Company based in St. Jacobs Ontario. The representatives from the brewery were DJ Froyo and DJ KFBass (whose DJ names are awarded during the competition).

The Mano A Mano show tried to throw off the athletes by having them do the beer tasting competition in extreme temperatures however DJ Plan B was not phased as he took home the championship for the second year in a row! Check out the podcast below for the exciting festivities, great music selection and plot twist at the very end which we hope will be signs of the future!

Jane Elliott Interview tommorrow

To everyone on SoundFM and in the Region of Waterloo community, I will be interviewing Jane Elliott who is an Anti-Racism activist in the U.S.A. on Wednesday July 27, 2016. If anyone has any questions you want me to ask, please feel free to email me at radioalim@outlook.com or at anathoo169@gmail.com. Also, if you prefer your name not to be said while I ask the questions, please let me know. All I will say is these are questions from my viewers and myself to give everyone equal credit. I apologize for saying it was this Thursday.

I also wanted to say that I will be the first person to interview Jane Elliott from any Canadian radio or news network which will make history in the Radio & Television industry.

Together we can all fight all forms of racism and discrimination. As Jane Elliott said, “There are not 4-5 different races and there is only one race and that is The Human Race.” Let’s spread this around and tell people that around the world.

Thank you very much and have a great day. Photo courtesy of Huffington Post.
