Carol Perkins: Callers are like family Previous column: Reunion put a skip in my step By Carol Perkins When situations happen on the radio beyond our control, I cringe at what the "world" is thinking. Susan and Carol-Unscripted (99.1 the Hoss live on Tuesday from 10-11) is truly unscripted, so we don't have control over those who call us except to cut them off.
