Problems and Solutions



Cathy Blythe brings you “Problems & Solutions” every weekday from 9am to 10am.

The topics on Problems & Solutions range from antique appraisals to cooking. Listeners are encouraged to call-in with questions for the P&S network of experts which includes: a pharmacist, a lawn and garden professional, and automotive experts. Weekly, P&S features an Open Phone Day where listeners can pose minor problems and let other listeners call with solutions. Open Phone Day also allows listeners to find items or products.

Problems and Solutions has been the recipient of first-place awards for service to the community from both the Nebraska Broadcasters Association and the Associated Press.  She is a two-time Marconi winner, being honored as National Personality of the Year by the National Association of Broadcasters in 2002 and 2005. The Marconi Award is the highest award given in broadcasting.

Cathy was inducted into the Nebraska Broadcasters Hall of Fame in August of 2011 and was also selected as a Distinguished Alumni of Lincoln Southeast High School.

We hope you get as much fulfillment from listening to Problems & Solutions as we do from bringing it to you.
