Are you in college or about to start college? Need something real fun and pretty easy to do this summer? Would you like something somewhat impressive to put on your resume? Do you like the idea of getting paid with experience rather than real currency?

Well, look no further than right here!

One lucky guy or girl (please let it be a girl, please let it be a girl) will be able to spend their sumer break as an intern for BlogTalkRadio’s hit show Dr. Blogstein’s Radio Happy Hour!

This is not a joke–though I really can’t blame you for thinking that it is–This is a legitimate internship.

As our summer intern, you will be able to:

• Produce segments
• Book guests and set up interviews
• Get on air experience, even co-host a show
• Perform grassroots marketing and develop ideas to help build up the audience
• Work from home (or the beach)

I challenge you to find an internship in radio where you can get as much hands on experience as I will allow (please let it be a girl, please let it be a girl) I will even fill out whatever form or write whatever letter that is necessary for you to receive college credit for this internship.

Please email me if you’re interested. Since announcing this internship on last night’s Radio Happy Hour, I’ve already received a total of (rounding up) one resume! So, you better hurry!

Coming up this week on DR. BLOGSTEIN’S RADIO HAPPY HOUR: (Live on Tuesday April 17th at 9PM ET and forever archived at BlogTalkRadio.)

Dr. Blogstein and Jane welcome the “The Grin Creeper” R.S. Rhine, Publisher and Deaditor-In-Chief of GIRLS and CORPSES MAGAZINE into the Radio Happy Hour. Is his online and print publication a joke or is it a sick fetish magazine? Or is it both? We’ll also find out if former radio host Don Imus might try to find employment as one of the corpse models.

And speaking of Imus, we’ll discuss the entire controversy with rapper Spider Loc of G-Unit. We’ll get his opinion on Imus, Al Sharpton and how the situation has been twisted into a condemnation of hip-hop. We’ll also get the latest on any feuds he and G-Unit are involved in.

All that, plus the announcement of the Radio Happy Hour Summer Internship Program and of course, your calls at 646-652-4804.

Join us every Tuesday night at 9PM ET. And if you miss us then, we’re forever archived at BlogTalkRadio. Get listenin’ or die tryin’.

Well, it took about ten days, but finally the phrase “nappy headed hos” is funny and a viable punch line.

On April 4 Don Imus mumbled the phrase when speaking about the Rutgers Women’s Basketball team. It was over in about 1.1 seconds and then the sound of his garbled, old-man voice muttering those words disappeared into the atmosphere where now, going by the speed of sound, those words are approximately 293,760,000 million miles away–or 3 times the distance that exists between between the Earth and Sun.

But as Hans Solo and C3PO are just now hearing Imus say “nappy headed hos” in a galaxy far, far away, we’ve heard it about thousand additional times.

We’ve heard Matt Lauer say it and we’ve heard Al Sharpton say it. We’ve heard our local news anchors say it and we’ve heard the deli guy say it. Its been said for 10 days at water coolers all across the country. We’ve heard white people say it and we’ve heard black people say it and now we may hear someone in the Dagobah system say it.

The point is, its been heard so much over the past ten days that it hardly means anything anymore. We’ll be seeing it on t-shirts, as a name of a band and countless guys have probably already renamed their fantasy baseball teams “The Nappy Headed Hos.” Google gives you about 2,370,000 results when you search for “nappy headed hos”!

Instead of condemning it and moving on, we’ve harped on it. We’ve repeated the phrase to the point that we don’t mind the phrase anymore–in fact, we may start hearing it on the street and in our music. We may start to use “nappy headed ho” as a term of endearment.

If a word or phrase is so hurtful and so damaging then stop saying it. Stop drawing attention to it. And, above all, stop introducing to people who haven’t heard it yet.

Santosh Hari of UberDesi.com was our second guest on Tuesday night’s show. He was quite a good sport and loads of fun to talk to about Sanjaya, Bollywood and all things Indian. We even bring up Great Tiger from Mike Tyson’s Punch Out!!

He writes about his appearance on his site. Check it out and tell him how much you enjoyed his guest spot on the latest installment of The Radio Happy Hour.

My adventures on BlogTalkRadio

Posted by Santosh on April 11, 2007

Have I ever asked any of you to do anything for me? I mean besides asking you to visit my site and listen to the Radio Happy Hour. Well, actually what I’m about to ask you for isn’t really me asking. Its my ego asking you.

I’ve been nominated for the Blogger’s Choice Award for Best Podcast which clearly we are. But right now, we’re trailing some lame show called Keith and the Girl (”the girl“? At least I allow my girl to use her name) and we’re just a hair ahead of The Dawn and Drew Show (whoever those freaks are.)

I didn’t ask to be nominated. I didn’t even know about the Blogger’s Choice Awards before Monday. But now that I’m in it, I want to win it. Scratch that. I need to win it. Please help me do it.

Click this and then vote for Dr. Blogstein. You’ll need to register but I swear it only takes 20 seconds. Then tell all your friends to do it. It will be fun. Pretend you’re voting for Sanjaya.

Thank You,

Edwin (Dr. B’s ego–yes, Dr. B named his ego too)

UPDATE 4/12/06 9:45 AM We’ve now dropped to fourth place! Dawn and Drew have jumped ahead of us, as has “Vegan Freak Radio” Come on you carnivores, we can’t let the vegans win! A vote for Blogstein is a vote for steak!
