Radio Debut
Tonight at 7:00 PM ET I’m hitting the air waves! As you see in my previous post, your’s truly will be a guest on “My Point,” a live, one hour program carried on Blog Talk Radio. The show can be heard live by following this link: http://www.blogtalkradio.com/hostpage.aspx?show_id=8482 and I believe it will remain archived there forever. Lucky me.
The show is hosted by David Odeen of “My Point” and “Jenn of the Jungle” of “Screw Politically Correct BS” and is a political and current event talk show from a conservative point of view. According to Blog Talk Radio, I’m being billed as a “very funny conservative blogger.”
Now, I’ve always known myself to be “very funny” (though I would have described me as EXTREMELY funny) but as far as being “conservative,” that was news to me. I sure as hell aint “Colmes” but I never considered myself “Hannity” either. I suppose if the hosts keep the discussion on killing terrorists and hating Osama bin Laden I’ll be okay, but if they ask for my views on abortion or whether or not I care about gay marriage, then they may not like me anymore. We’ll see.
According to Odeen’s blog “My Point” they plan on engaging me in conversation about such things “as some of our favorite authors, like Vince Flynn and Brad Thor.” But beyond that, I have no idea what they plan on filling the 90 minutes with. But I’m coming prepared!
- I watched last night’s premiere of the kick-ass, sixth season of 24 in case they decide to talk about that. (For the record, I’d have watched 24 regardless of this interview or not.)
- I watched President George W. Bush’s interview on 60 Minutes that aired last night.
- I bought a newspaper, though truth be told, I haven’t read it yet. (Anything happen that I should know about?)
- I re-watched Saddam getting hanged (or hung?)
Hopefully, that will be enough to keep me interesting. If not, please be my safety valve. Its a “call-in” show so feel free to call in. The number is (347) 996-5948. Call in, say hi, join the discussion, start a new discussion, whatever.
And also, feel free to use the comment section below to let me know how I’m doing, what I should do, how I did, how smart I am, how you want my body, whatever.
UPDATE! 1/16/07: My appearance on “My Point”, including the CEO of BlogTalkRadio offering me my own show, can be heard here…
Stay tuned for details of The Dr. Blogstein Radio Happy Hour coming to BlogTalkRadio in February!
January 15th, 2007 at 8:45 pm
I could call in and rail about communism and why it’s the right choice for America, just to anger the hosts and make things interesting…nah, exams tomorrow. Someone else do it.
January 15th, 2007 at 9:18 pm
Sounds like you’re very well prepared Doc and I am positive that you won’t need our help but we’ll be there anyway to show our support for our favorite headcase!
If you want my body and you think I’m sexy
Come on, sugar, let me know
If you really need me just reach out and touch me
Come on, honey, tell me so
January 15th, 2007 at 9:22 pm
Hey Doc, When I call in as Lex Luthor, I hope they don’t hang up on me as a prank caller. So just for the record, Dave and Jenn, Lex Luthor is very real.
And please do talk about the premiere of 24: I missed it! I know it is a phenomenon we all want to hear your opinion on . And do you think Jack Bauer knew anything about the Saddam video?
Валерия already told me she has a few questions for you. Hear you tonight!
January 15th, 2007 at 9:36 pm
Your body is Tisha’s …I’ll accept your take on 24 last night…
I am so happy it is back and loved Jack, biting nto a nice fleshy neck..and then spitting it out!
January 15th, 2007 at 9:44 pm
Bond: I loved how long it took Jack to wipe the blood and guts off of his mouth. HARD CORE!
January 15th, 2007 at 9:47 pm
Yay! I didn’t miss it. I found out about the interview at ~4am this morning and failed to update my internal calendar. Maybe I should invest in an exterior calendar. I’ll be out there listening.
January 15th, 2007 at 9:55 pm
Well Doc.. who knows the last time the Chinese had fed him, and he hadn’t eaten since getting off the plane…so he needed some protein to keep going….
January 15th, 2007 at 10:01 pm
hey doc another thing…got your TiVo stoked up for tonight? If your historical radio interview begins at 7 and is 90 minutes long..that cuts into the first 1/2 hour of 24….
January 15th, 2007 at 10:18 pm
Bond do you represent TiVO or something? You have stocks? You’re right on one thing “Your body is Tisha’s”
January 15th, 2007 at 10:27 pm
watching jack bauer chew a guy’s neck off was the single handed greatness moment of my life. no contest.
if you run out of stuff to talk about, you can always talk about me, and you know, my greatness.
January 15th, 2007 at 10:28 pm
You know it, Bondy! TiVo is locked and loaded. I’ll get off the air and get right into 24 and watch it with minimal if any commercials!
January 15th, 2007 at 10:28 pm
and by greatness, i meant greatest. lots of greatnesses in my comment.
January 15th, 2007 at 10:29 pm
Your greatness is the greatest. I thought that was obvious to everyone.
January 15th, 2007 at 10:33 pm
Any more on 24? I can’t believe I missed cannibalism ! What was I thinking last night? I am glad that Saddam is still up for grabs and we all knew who was going to lay claim to your body Doc: I just hope for your sake that Tisha doesn’t get any 24 ideas.
January 15th, 2007 at 10:36 pm
oh, Lex: OUCH!
January 15th, 2007 at 10:47 pm
Gimme a “D” dee, gimme a “r”, gimme a “B”, gimme me a “l”, gimme an “o”, gimme a “g”, gimme a “s”, gimme a “t”, gimme me an “e”, gimme me an “i”, give me an “n” and what do you get? B-L-O-G-S-T-E-I-N!
Your cheerleader Tisha! I’m also the mascot.
January 15th, 2007 at 10:51 pm
Tisha: TiVo is the greatest invention since the BOB or the flogger
BWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAH
January 15th, 2007 at 10:56 pm
Tisha: You get D-R B-L-O-G-S-T-E-I-N not just “B-L-O-G-S-T-E-I-N!” ya kook!
January 15th, 2007 at 11:02 pm
Well DUH that’s why I am only a cheerleader.
Was that a racial epithet? Some discussion for our radio show tonight. Racial tensions in America after 9/11. Good thing you did your homework!
January 15th, 2007 at 11:06 pm
This has all the ingredients of becoming a riot in about 1 hour!
Could you imagine if all of us were in the studio! It would be absolute pandemonium. The ratings would be off the wall and so would we! 1 hour left to each come up with some really intellectually stimulating questions. And Tisha your first( ladies first ). Break a leg Doc!
January 15th, 2007 at 11:12 pm
Congrats on the big time. I’m a life long right wing nut job so I can give you some tips:
Death penalty is normally referred to as “some people just need killin”
“Taxes are bad mmmkay”
Instead of insurgents use “towel headed camel jockeys”
“More guns less crime”
PETA “Please Eat Tasty Animals”
Instead of “Civil War” “Use Wahh tween the states” Or “Wahh of Yankee agression”
Hope this helps
January 15th, 2007 at 11:15 pm
Hey Doc 12:12AM what are you going to do to keep me awake *wink* until 1AM?
January 15th, 2007 at 11:19 pm
Geez, Hammer. Maybe I am a “conservative blogger” I agree with a lot of what you just said!
Tisha! Behave! I can’t have you distracting me while I go up against two real life radio hosts!
January 15th, 2007 at 11:25 pm
Yes, master.
January 16th, 2007 at 12:05 am
Sexy voice Doc!
January 16th, 2007 at 12:24 am
Lex I accept the job!
January 16th, 2007 at 1:29 am
Dr. Blogstein for President!
I told you it was a gr8 idea!
January 16th, 2007 at 1:33 am
Good job Doc. The guy from BlogTalk homesteaded the show for just a little (way) too long but I see a future in the business if you ever decide to run your own show.
January 16th, 2007 at 1:34 am
Thanks, Tisha! And thanks to evryone who listened and especially Tisha, Lex and Bond who called in. It was quite a blast and it looks like I’ll get my own show out of it! Stay tuned…
January 16th, 2007 at 1:41 am
You were incredible, just love that laugh
))
January 16th, 2007 at 1:44 am
Thanks Doc!! The show was awesome!! For all of you it is ready for archivers to listen now.. Follow the link Dr. B put up or visit my blog. http://www.mypointright.com
January 16th, 2007 at 2:50 am
Yes Doc, that was a lot of fun! David and Jenn provided a good venue in my opinion and I think we all will appreciate the upcoming, “Dr. Blogstein Show”.
Glad I was able to participate and get you your own Star on the Walk of Fame! Mr. Hollywood Blogstein.
January 16th, 2007 at 3:26 am
Hey I know I left a message here before…what the heck happened????
Was a great time Doc…glad I could get online with you.
David’s connection was horrible, but everyone else was crystal clear..
I also agree with slag…David used the offer for you show as a chance to badger the boss…
January 16th, 2007 at 3:38 am
I hope you’re going to mention Daddy Radic, aka Father Felony. Just kidding! You are still the BESTEST ever.
January 16th, 2007 at 4:38 am
Hey Doc, great having you on! Can’t wait to hear your show in the future.
Lex, Tisha and Bond, thanks for calling in, and feel fre to call in anytime. Dave and I are pretty mellow.
I had to laugh, you said:”I suppose if the hosts keep the discussion on killing terrorists and hating Osama bin Laden I’ll be okay, but if they ask for my views on abortion or whether or not I care about gay marriage, then they may not like me anymore. We’ll see.”
I’m a REPUBLICAN. Fiscally conservative and “conservative” on many issues, but….
I’m an atheist, I want my gay friends to marry (helloooo free booze and cake) and well the abortion issue is a wash. How can one say they “support” abortion. Being an atheist it has nothing to do with religion, it’s more about personal responsibility.
Anyway, it was awesome having you on, your one of my most favorite bloggers, I’ll stop lurking and try to comment more often.
By the way, when you and Tisha get married can I be the flower girl?
January 16th, 2007 at 1:04 pm
weird stuff…the comments got all mixed up and are posted out of order. Anyway, thanks a gain to all who listened.
Slagger and Bond: I’m so glad that Alan guy invited me to host my own show and I’m already developing it in my head. I suppose he did owe it to me after he overshadowed my appearance on “My Point”!
Father Felony: Sorry that I didn’t get to mention you but I hope that you’ll be a guest on my future show.
Jenn and Dave: Your show was great fun. I hope to get a chance to do it again. Thanks for having me and my wacky readers onto your show.
January 16th, 2007 at 1:09 pm
Yeah great show Jenn and Dave, thanks for making it happen and letting me ramble on for so long!
January 16th, 2007 at 2:38 pm
Hey guys,
I was just answering questions from the host.
Lot’s of fun and good job.
See you “On-air”
Alan
January 16th, 2007 at 2:42 pm
“wacky”????? “wacky”?????
I will have you know that the institution told me I was totally sane upon my release….
I mean… I am not wacky…yeah that’s it…
And Jenn… hope to see you on THE COUCH sometime soon — sheesh can’t believe I flubbed my own URL on the air last night….
January 16th, 2007 at 3:02 pm
Yeah, Bond, I was quite inpressed with your grace
January 16th, 2007 at 3:07 pm
Boy that Levy Guy, who’s he think he is steeling Jenn and my guest like that. What a BUM Levy..
KIDDING……
January 16th, 2007 at 3:42 pm
Poor Doc now I am even more obsessed!
btw Rudy Giuliani would make an excellent President and let’s hope that a “Mohamed Luther King” will rise up and change the status quo.
“Terrorist Roach Motel” truly brilliant!!! I don’t think that’s such a bad thing either! As you said terrorism is a global problem and everyone is benefiting while we’re busting our balls – maybe we should go back to Isolationism but then the whole world would be DOOMED!
Enjoyed hearing more of your political and social thoughts and ideas – what struck me most was the “Butcher, Baker and Candlestick Maker” about the average Joe being able to run for Office.
Kudos Doc!
January 16th, 2007 at 3:44 pm
I listened to the end… then did Jack with no commercials.. the way I like it… Man.. he was going to be out but that kaboom is dragging him right back in…
Do you think that—just maybe —annoying ‘lil Kim was in the blast area and we will not have to deal with her this season?
January 16th, 2007 at 3:58 pm
poor Kim…she gets such a bad rap for being annoying, all well deserved mind you, but she is damn smokin hot and thats got to count for something!
January 16th, 2007 at 4:17 pm
chain her in the woods with a bobcat…annoying
kidnap her… anoying
hire her at CTU…annoying
tie her to the bed naked, and gag her…not so annoying
bwahahahahahahahahaaaaaa
January 16th, 2007 at 5:47 pm
Aaaaaah! 24 – the magic numerics. I´m so addicted to 24. The fifth season has started about 2 weeks ago in Germany… we are way behind, as usual =)
I bought the 5th season at ebay as soon as the DVD box was available in the USA.
Can´t wait to see season 6 =)))
January 16th, 2007 at 6:00 pm
Conga Rats to Doc! The Dr. Blogstein Happy Hour is just what we needed!
Now you need a theme song. But no Rod Stewart…
Sorry Tish but Rod sucked once Faces finshed up
January 16th, 2007 at 6:19 pm
No hard feelings Starr kiss
January 16th, 2007 at 6:21 pm
I do need a theme song. If there’s anyone out there who knows how to make theme songs please let me know. I will be indebted to you for life.
January 16th, 2007 at 6:26 pm
Dr. Blogstein I just had to see what the whole ruckus was about Tisha mentions you every other word, what’s your secret man!?
January 16th, 2007 at 6:29 pm
If you need someone to sing the theme song you know where to find me!
January 16th, 2007 at 8:12 pm
Hi Doc! I thought I’d drop by and say hi. Caught your radio interview last night – very cool. Congrats on the show, too. I’ll be listening when you start up in February.
January 16th, 2007 at 8:18 pm
HEY DOC…If you need a COUCH for your show.. let me know…
A good COUCH will make your guests feel more at home and open up to your subliminal suggestions easier.
January 16th, 2007 at 8:29 pm
Bond: Do you have any casting couches for me to use while looking for a co-host?
January 16th, 2007 at 9:02 pm
we can supply COUCHES of all different sizes and shapes… so a female co-host….
January 16th, 2007 at 9:07 pm
Yeah, I like the dynamic of a male/female co-hosted show. Two males just seems like SportsCenter. Plus it’ll be nice to have someone soften me up a little.
January 16th, 2007 at 9:11 pm
Your co-host is right next to you: Tisha! and you have the props covered. So you are ready to go Doc. All that’s left is deciding which of the 998 loyal fans are going to be the first to break in the couch. If anyone needs help finding the place, you know who to call! Your on the Map!
January 16th, 2007 at 9:19 pm
agreed on the dynamics…
time difference could be tough to coordinate with our belgium beauty
January 16th, 2007 at 9:34 pm
Bond and Lex very flattered boys but don’t put ideas into Doc’s head LOL
January 16th, 2007 at 9:39 pm
Unfortunately, Bond is right…timing will ultimately be a dog in that relationship.
I have someone in my time zone that I have in mind. Someone noone is familiar with yet. And don’t worry, if you guys aren’t happy with my choice, I’ll just get rid of her.
January 16th, 2007 at 10:18 pm
Oh, and I forgot to thank CoCo for listening…can’t wait to have you back in February. I have no idea what I’m going to yet, but I can promise you that it’ll be amazing…I don’t do anything half-assed.
January 16th, 2007 at 10:53 pm
Ah so disappointed, don’t worry this will be a milder “Fatal Attraction”!
January 16th, 2007 at 11:06 pm
Now Dr…..Don’t be recruitin my Jenn of the Jungle!!! And who is this Woozie and what did he expect to hear? Jenn and I are lovable fuzz balls. I gotta renew that contract.
But a co-host is nice when you got nothin!!
January 17th, 2007 at 1:33 am
Don’t worry, buddy…hands off Mrs. Of The Jungle
January 17th, 2007 at 2:46 am
Wow, did you really get offered a show? That is great!! Make sure to include veiled references to canned ham and outposts on the moon…ya know, just to keep listeners guessing!!
January 17th, 2007 at 2:50 am
It is true, Michael C and therefore I am way too important to be talking to you right now.
January 17th, 2007 at 4:55 pm
Your own show? Congrats from one of the little people! Should we now consider the Doc the next “King of All Media?”
January 17th, 2007 at 5:05 pm
Thanks, Big Al–And don’t worry–I’m callingon you when something big happens in Detroit sports.
January 17th, 2007 at 5:46 pm
69 comments, that is worth mention ^.^
