"We’re breaking barriers"
Those were just some the words CEO Alan Levy used to describe Blog Talk Radio now that Dr. Blogstein’s Radio Happy Hour is on the schedule.
He said a whole lot more when he made a surprise call in to our exclusive practice show in preparation for our debut on Tuesday at 9PM ET. The entire audio of the “Test Show” can be heard by pressing play here:
As you will hear, Levy also stated that “we’re in the midst of a revolution” and that it’s “very possible” that Dr. Blogstein’s Radio Happy Hour will eventually become Blog Talk Radio’s “#1 show.”
Originally, this practice show, which was used to learn the equipment and give my co-host Jane and me a show under our belts before our real debut on Tuesday, was going to be immediately destroyed. But after Levy described the show by saying that this show “will be a start of a blossoming empire” I decided to let the program survive.
What you will hear is the historic, almost-first episode of Dr. Blogstein’s Radio Happy Hour, which, no doubt will one day be enshrined in the Smithsonian Museum in Washington, D.C. Hear Jane and I discuss Anna Nicole Smith, Barack Obama, and cherry-blossom air fresheners. You’ll hear me screw up sound effects. Plus, you’ll also hear me piss off caller Tisha and then have to uncover what it was I did to her.
Please enjoy this historic broadcast and come back again on Tuesday Night for our debut show!
Constructive criticism welcome.

So as to for all time establish that I have no life:
I opened a new window to write this comment while listening to your theme song on the test recording of you new world-wide internet hit. Hint on hooking the listener, wait, you just said long song and cut it off.
Best of luck,
and Cockyville (sp?)
to all,
Dave.

Hey Dave: Thank you for not having a life. We’re counting on the hunch that most people don’t have a life and thus will enjoy the Radio Happy Hour!
Its actually spelled “Cockeysville”. Its a town in Maryland, just west of Poopysburgh on the way to Doody City.
And thanks for the theme song tip…I’ve cut it down considerably. It’ll be a helluva lot shorter on Tuesday.
And a Cockeysville to you too.

Dearest Doc:
So just as Dave did, I opened another tab so I could listen to your voice as I left you a comment.
*sigh*
Looking forward to possibly calling in and talking to you darling.
February 11th, 2007 at 2:29 am
I look forward to that too Anndi. I hope it happens on Tuesday!

Your “Tisha!” content on the Dr. Blogstein Radio Happy Hour is under our licensing agreement, royalties are due forthwith LOL
Doc, you and Jane were increíble chico!
besos!

Thanks, Tisha. And thanks for being a part of history, even though we had our first fight.
February 11th, 2007 at 2:51 am
wasn’t our first fight nor our LAST!

You can skip Anna Nicole. I still don’t understand why anyone cares. She’s one of the most worthless human beings to ever exist. She claims she wanted to be Marilyn Monroe, but clearly, she understood nothing about her.
All that said, looking forward to the show!
February 11th, 2007 at 2:58 am
Thanks, Benny. So you want more Anna Nicole talk?
Kidding.
Don’t think there’s much more we can cover about her anyway.
See ya Tuesday!

Oooo, I’m a part of radio history! At least I will be when I call in on Tuesday!!
February 11th, 2007 at 9:32 pm
Hey! good jobs guy’s. you two work well together.
BTW: you have to get by Jenn and me first!
February 12th, 2007 at 12:14 am
You talented monkey! If Alan Levy ever called into my show it would be to tell me to stop broadcasting!
February 12th, 2007 at 1:21 am
Crimson: Looking forward to it. Talk to you on Tuesday.
Dave: How’d the rest of your ice fishing go? Hope we didn’t scare your son!
Mr. Fab: I caught the very end of your show last night. I need to hear the whole replay. I liked how you bickered with your wife!

I’m listening to it right now…
My favorite part is the conversation about the cherry blossom air freshener. That’s when I laughed out loud.
(”But the cherry one was on SALE!”) LOL!
What’s freaky is that you sound nothing like the *voice* I imagined.
Y’know, whenever I read your blog I hear a completely different voice saying the words.
But apparently the ‘voices in my head’ are from someone else entirely…. gotta remember to take my meds….
You sound about 15 years younger than I thought you were. I just checked your profile to see if it listed your age, but alas! No clues at all!
I imagined you as about 30-35-years old.
Was I wrong?
Break the news to me gently.
I promise to “cherish” you either way.

Janna: You’re spot on with my age–you should work for a carnival guessing ages. I guess I have a baby voice.
February 12th, 2007 at 8:53 pm
Heya sweetcheecks sorry I missed it, you know why though.
I’ll be listening to it tonight, I want to have a couple beers in me first, seeing as it’s a happy hour and all. : )
February 12th, 2007 at 9:01 pm
Doc,
Thanks for the link. You will be happy to know that you have at least one reader in Salt Lake City that clicked it to come to me.
This is going to sound lame, but, I was just thinking that I had to update my Recommended list and your’s was one of the blogs that came to mind. I’m telling the truth here. I’m a lawyer you know, officer of the court, all round honorable guy.
Good luck on the show tomorrow night.
