1 in every 10


One in every 10 Americans has a hearing loss. That’s about 36 million people.
And the number is expected to nearly double by the year 2030.


If you or someone you love suffers from hearing loss, you’re not alone. It’s very common. And, it’s serious enough to seek professional help.

I did!


A few months ago ... I had my hearing tested at one of the WHISPER HEARING CENTERS. They have 15 locations within the WFMS listening area.

They are the experts when it comes to solving ANY level of hearing loss. They also can teach ways to prevent future damage.

I now wear ... OTICON DUEL hearing aids. They are so small, that my friends and co-works can't believe I am wearing them.

But don't let the size fool you. They are powerful! They are equipped with blue-tooth technology.

If you (or someone you know) is suffering from a hearing loss … like mine … then contact one of the WHISPER HEARING CENTERS through central Indiana.

ON THE AIR ....


The other day … we had the chance to host an auction on TV for a charity.

I don’t like being on TV … it shows off every flaw. And, I have a bunch of them! I know I have a face for radio!

But … one thing the TV cameras did not pick up (and the viewers could not see at home) were my hearing aids.

If you recall … I suffer from a slight to moderate hearing loss. I describe it as trying to read in a dimly lit room. I can hear most things … but sometime really have to strain.

Since getting my OTICON hearing aids from one of the WHISPER HEARING CENTERS here in town … I don’t have a hearing problem anymore.

And my hearing aids are so small … most people don’t even notice them (even when I wear them on TV).

If you (or somebody you know) suffer from any level of hearing loss … then visit one of the WHISPER HEARING CENTERS here in central Indiana. They have 15 locations within the WFMS listening area.

They are the experts! They can also show you ways to protect your hearing from future loss.

What was your score?


Let me give you a simple little hearing test … right here on the radio. Just answer YES of NO to these questions. Ready? OK … here we go.

- DO you have trouble hearing over the phone?
- DO you have trouble following the conversation when 2 or more people are talking?
- Do people complain that the TV volume is too loud?
- Do you have trouble hearing in noisy situations?
- Do you ask people to repeat themselves?
- Do people seem to mumble or not speak clearly?

If you answered YES to 2 or more of these questions … then you may have a hearing problem.

You know, I use to … but not any more. Not since I visited one of the WHISPER HEARING CENTERS. They have 15 locations with-in the WFMS listening area.

And … they are the experts when it comes to solving any level of hearing loss!!

I now wear OTICON hearing aids. They are so small; people are surprised to find out that I wear them! AND … they have BLUETOOTH technology built right in.

If you think you may have a hearing problem … then contact on of the Whisper Hearing Centers through central Indiana.
