Reviews
Serena has the formula of a great KUCI PA show. She is
engaging, funny, interesting and socially conscious.
I actually reviewed my OLD review of one of her old
shows and much of it is identical. Let me re-visit
what I said earlier:
"Serena is another perfect example of a person doing a
great SOLO job with a PA show. She keeps the listener
engaged from the very beginning of the show. In fact,
I knew after the 1st few mins that it would be a fun,
interesting show. The show is good because it gives us
some deeper things to think about, but in a very
light, fun way. Her stories - even personal ones -
just sort of make us chuckle.
She hardly has any dead air, any "umms, and uhhhs".
She uses humor very effectively, and anyone in comedy
knows that humor is more light and innocent when one
can poke fun at oneself, which Serena does ["I have a
very dull life" "If only she were 18, then."[referring
to the Israeli girl].
Again, I liked a lot how she took only 2 simples
themes or ideas and ran a 1 hour show on them, without
sounding boring, preaching. She even had a caller on
the air and the music break was good. Serena
absolutely should continue the work she is doing at
KUCI.'
I hate to sound repetitive, but this really also
applies to the show I am reviewing now. She brings in
2-3 impt issues this time: gay/lesbian marriages, same
sex civil unions, etc. She is able to do a 1 hour show
with just her wit and knowledge. She is able to talk
and keep us engaged even when a caller does not call
in for the 1st 2/3 of her show. She made some comments
that actually made me laugh out loud, " .Kansas State
[referring to the laws there].. we're not in Kansas
anymore Dorothy!"..; or when referring to a man
getting his Penis amputated for a sex change, "..I
wont even have my tonsils taken out!"..
Serena also puts a lot of self revelation into the
show, which in most instances wouldn't be good in a PA
show, but here it works great. She adds HUMANITY to
her show, and makes us her friend.
I tried hard to find some things to criticize, but
failed. I thought maybe there was too much music
before the show started, but then again, Serena states
the reason behind her playing the music on this show
segment and made it all ok.
Keep up the great work, kid!- Anonymous KUCI Talk Host/Reviewer

comments: Hi Serena, I am in Jeanerette, LA and somehow stumbled across your animated, bold, and opinionated program. I
am really entertained by your clear expression and candid confessions. Just wanted to let you know that your voice is
reaching to the swamplands of Cajun country. I watch the archives for each and every addition. Thanks for being you.
A close listener,
Lois
