Transcript Slide 1

The Rockstar and lead singer of the band Charity
Case. Ace "runs the board" for the show and is the
co-host, along with TJ.
TJ, the love specialist, is the other co-host and the
wittiest member of the show. He's the moral compass
of the group and uses sarcasm to take his humor to
the next level.
From Concord NC and graduate of East Carolina
university. Majored in Fashion Design and was on the
dance team for 4 years. I have been dancing for 5 years
with the NBA Charlotte Bobcats. I love my 2 maltipoos
Teddy and Bella. Now I am the newest member of the
Ace and TJ show!
Riggins became a main cast fixture when he refused to
leave after his internship. He uses his musical talent to
swoon the ladies and recap the stuff that happens on the
show during the Week in Review.

Each show is family friendly, heavily listener interactive, topical and REAL
(do not expect staged bits and contests, recorded ‘scams’, hokey contests
and fake people). While certainly southern, the audiences at our affiliates
in current affiliates in Idaho, Texas and past in Pennsylvania and Kansas
have overwhelmingly felt a part of the ‘radio family’ and continued to LOVE
the southern spin delivered by this show.

Ace & TJ’s Grin Kids is a non-profit 501(c)3 charity, created by morning show personalities
Ace & TJ in Charlotte, North Carolina in January of 2000. The name of the organization
comes from Ace & TJ’s motto on their morning show, “You Grin, You’re In!”
Ace & TJ’s Grin Kids is designed to enhance the lives of children in our listening areas who
are terminally ill and chronically handicapped, ages five through twelve, by taking them to
DisneyWorld with their entire family.
Each year, Ace & TJ’s Grin Kids charters a 737 to take these children, with their sibling,
parents, and health care workers to DisneyWorld in Florida. Because of their special
needs and financial strain, this is an experience that many of these children and families
would not be able to know without the help of Ace & TJ’s Grin Kids.
Over the years, Ace & TJ’s Grin Kids has taken 285 Grin Kids and their families to
DisneyWorld. And during the 5-day vacation, all expenses are paid, including air travel,
ground transportation, Disney Park-Hopper passes, meals, hotel rooms at a Disney Resort,
and Disney Dollars for souvenirs.
During the Grin Kids trip each year, the Ace & TJ Show interviews the families and shares
their stories, the excitement, and the fun of the trip, allowing listeners to share in the
experience of a lifetime.
Grin Kids is majority-funded by listener donations. Some are large, some are small, but
without the listeners, the “Radio Family” participating in various fundraising events, the Grin
Kids trip would not be possible year to year.
For more information on how to volunteer, or how to donate or participate in fundraisers
throughout the year, from Charity Case concerts to the golf tournament, and from Play
Anything Day to straight donations, just browse around our new website. Every dollar
helps in making this vacation possible for children who have only dreamed of a doctor-free
vacation to the Happiest Place On Earth!

“Ace & TJ, along with the rest of the team have proved to be exemplary
advocates of our brand. They have been flexible in working with us on
several different projects and have exceeded our expectations in every
regard. We are very happy to have them as our partner.”

Ace,
I want to personally reach out and thank you for the efforts
made by the Ace & TJ Show and Charity Case, in regards to
the 2012 LKN Beer Fest. It was our 3rd year hosting this
event and by far our most successful. The overall marketing
program created by the ACE & TJ Show completely covered
all aspects of what we were trying to accomplish. The addition
to of Charity Case as our headlining entertainment took it over
the top. You brought the event to life and made your listeners
mark this as a cant miss event. These efforts will help carry
our event for the next 10 years and will allow us to grow
exponentially.
Our projections for 2012 were 2000 people, we had 3000!
This result is amazing and we thank you for the over the top promotion
to help us get there.
Cheers and thanks for everything.
Chris Boukedes
Dear Ace & TJ:
Heather is a teacher at Emmanuel Baptist Childcare Center, where my children attend- she has gone above and beyond
her call of duty as a daycare teacher! She is 25 and her husband Joe is 35. They dont have much, rent a trailer which is
not in the best shape, several months behind on rent but will give their last penny or the shirt off their back if you need
it! The kids need clothes and shoes that fit!!! Joe has been in and out of work as a roofer and currently is not working.
Not being able to provide for his family is breaking him down. On top of taking care of the 3 kids, working full time for
pennies and keeping up the house, Heather is attending college to make a better life for her family. However, their van
has broken down, they cannot afford to fix it, they are currently driving her fathers car- who is in bad health--as well as
her mom. So the vehicle situation does not help with Joe trying to find a job. Heather also is now in bad health and goes
this Thursday (11/29) for a biopsy- her Dr is thinking she has Lymphoma(she has no insurance). We recently paid for
their daughter's 6th birthday party and presents-and I won tickets from you to the Ren Fest and took their kids and it was
like Disney to them!! They were soooo appreciative and had never experienced anthing like it.... they are in desperate
need of help this hoiday season. I really pray God puts it in your hearts to help out this young troubled family!
Praying for help, Danielle
Breaking & Entering Christmas Update
So I received a call after work with a shaken, crying, hysterical mom on the other line… she had been stressing all day
because the dad had been told that there was a group of people outside of his house Thursday morning…but he couldn’t
leave work to go home and check on it.
She made the kids stay in the car as she entered the house to make sure all was ok - in aww and disbelief and shock she prepared the children for what they were about to encounter - A MIRACLE! The kids were insane in the background!
The boy tells me on the phone that “I just know whoever helped Santa with this has GOT to be Christian!”- that melted my
heart!!! Mom says “you’ve got to see what I just walked into at my house”.
It was breathtaking! Truly amazing! That evening, the dad sat on the couch still in shock and said he didn’t feel
worthy…that if you added up all the Christmas presents he has ever received in his over-30-years of life, it didn’t total
even close to the amount that was there for them this year!!!
On top of all that, the mom found out that she has passed this semester at school AND SHE DOES NOT HAVE
CANCER!! IT’S BENIGN!!!! The Good Lord has answered all of their prayers this holiday season- with MUCH thanks to
you and your elves! PLEASE thank Jake again for this amazing work that God has put into his heart! Truly an inspiration
and one to look up to!! xoxoxo
Ace & TJ’s Breaking & Entering Christmas 2012…our 14 th year of helping families in need!
Each year, Yankee Pete of the Ace & TJ Show and his band of Merry Hoodlum Elves select families
that need a little extra help around the holidays and deliver gifts and other surprises. They break
into the house when no one is home and deliver a Christmas tree, presents for all of the kids,
stock the kitchen, and they’ve even set up new furniture for the families who need it.
Ace & TJ's Breaking & Entering Christmas is about bringing the true meaning of Christmas to
children who truly deserve to have a story-book Christmas morning.
