vince.jpgOne of the most frequent search items that lead information super highway travelers to DrBlogstein.com is “Mitch Rapp Movies” or (or some variation there of.)

Of course, its a search for information regarding any news about whether or not Hollywood is finally going to make a movie featuring Mitch Rapp, the main character in Radio Happy Hour favorite and New York Times #1 Bestselling author Vince Flynn’s novels.

Well, up until now, that search has always led to a dead end. Not only did we have no news but no news existed! In fact, you can click this link and hear for yourself Vince Flynn’s frustrations (interview begins approx. 42 minutes into show) when asked about a movie deal, when he appeared on the Radio Happy Hour back in October.

If you noticed, I said “up until now” in the previous paragraph. That’s because someone in Hollywood FINALLY figured out that making movies that people will want to see will most likely lead to big profits. And that someone is two people: Lorenzo di Bonaventura (”Transformers”) and Nick Wechsler (“We Own The Night”) who will be producing the films for CBS Films who has optioned the rights for Flynn’s Mitch Rapp character with the intention of creating a character-based, action-thriller movie franchise.

No word on when we’ll finally see Mitch Rapp kick ass on the big screen or who will be playing America’s favorite counter terrorism operative not named Jack Bauer, but I sure feel a lot safer knowing he’ll eventually be coming to a theater near me. . .

(See, I told you Vince Flynn is a Radio Happy Hour favorite)

This week on the #1 most listened to comedy show on BlogTalkRadio

Monday, January 21st, 2008

paige-8x10-email-300dpi.jpgComing up this week on DR. BLOGSTEIN’S RADIO HAPPY HOUR: the #1 most listened to comedy show on BlogTalkRadio (Live on Tuesday January 22nd at 9PM ET and forever archived at BlogTalkRadio.)book_paige.jpg

Paige Adams-Geller has perhaps the most important rear end in the fashion industry.

For years, as a fit model, her butt helped shape the clothing that women wear. Now, literally by the seat of her pants, the former Miss California has her own line of premium denim.

How does one make a career out of trying on clothing? What makes her ass different from all other asses? How can anyone feel comfortable in their own genes? We’ll get to the bottom of all that (pun very much intended) when “The Queen of Jeans” joins Dr. B and Dangerous Lee on the Radio Happy Hour. We’ll also give away a copy of her new book, Your Perfect Fit, to one lucky listener.britney_spears_shaving-hair-bald.jpg

Then, Columbo’s great-niece and Radio Happy Hour favorite Samantha Falk returns with news of a controversial film project. Falk and actor Ross Tyler, her co-star, have both been cast in Memoirs of a Medicated Child, a movie that producer Tommy S. Parker continues to claim will star Britney Spears. Now, reports (here and here) are surfacing that the troubled pop star was never attached to or offered a role in the film. We’ll do our best to sort this complicated mess out.

All that, plus, Supreme Commander of the Cyberwaves Vinny Bond drags his Big Leather Couch into the Radio Happy Hour Lounge and chats live with the listeners, Justin the Weatherman aka J-Lo the Dance Instructor will try to remain racially sensitive and your calls at 646-652-4804

The Blogstein Effect

Wednesday, July 25th, 2007

Dr. Blogstein’s Radio Happy Hour can now officially be known as “The Oprah Show of Internet Radio”

Following author Brad Thor’s appearance on the popular show on July 17th, sales for his latest book, The First Commandment, skyrocketed him to the highest New York Times bestseller list ranking of his career.

Just in to the Dr. Blogstein Newsroom, the New York Times announced that Thor’s book will land at #7 on their August 5th edition of their bestseller list. Thor’s previous high spot was at #32.

“I don’t want to take full credit for the success of his book, I mean, Thor does write a helluva story,” Dr. Blogstein said, “but I’ll be happy to acknowledge that we probably deserve at least 47% of the credit.”

Thor was unavailable for comment, but I’m sure not for too long if he reads this story.

"Go grab Noriega, pull him out of his cell, ship him over there and give him Saddam Hussein’s old uniform."

***This article is so old already***

 

***Click here for the latest info on Brad Thor!***

 

or click play below to listen to Dr.Blogstein’s June 24, 2008 interview with Brad Thor

If that’s not a campaign slogan, I don’t know what is!

Brad Thor, New York Times bestselling author of the upcoming novel The First Commandment and soon-to-be Radio Happy Hour guest on Tuesday July 10th, has drawn the ire of many after he suggested the installation of jailed former Panamanian dictator Manuel Noriega as dictator of Iraq on an appearance last week on Glenn Beck’s TV show.

See the video of Brad Thor’s appearance on Glenn Beck’s program.


Thor went on to say, “We need a dictator back in that country. That’s all those people respond to. The Arab world is so messed up, they can’t — you can’t give people democracy. They have to earn it. So let’s put our own strongman in there like we did with the shah, and let’s — let’s make it work.

While it was clear to me that it was said tongue-in-cheek, I say, let’s not close off that idea yet. Back on February 23, 2006 I suggested putting Saddam back in charge for the same reasons. While that’s impossible now, perhaps one of his body doubles could be propped up and put in charge–though before that’s done it would have to be carefully explained to George W. as we don’t want him to get confused and go Shock & Awe again.

But short of a Saddam body double, I think Thor is onto something with Noriega. The man has the dictatorial experience (Noriega, not Thor), he’s not Sunni or Shiite or Kurdish so favoritism will not be an issue and I’m sure he’s just dying to get out of his cell and back into a Panamanian style heat.

I say give it try. It really can’t get much worse.

Coming up this week on DR. BLOGSTEIN’S RADIO HAPPY HOUR: (Live on Tuesday June 5th at 9PM ET and forever archived at BlogTalkRadio.)

James Bassil, editor of AskMen.com will be coming to Happy Hour to discuss his new book “From the Bar to the Bedroom: The 11 Rules for Picking Up and Pleasuring Women” in a can’t miss interview for men of all species. I’d kindly ask all women to skip this segment as to not learn our new secret tips. Please?

We’ll also be joined by Shant Kenderian, a fascinating man who’s life story is almost too unbelievable to be true.

Kenderian, an Iraqi born American and author of the newly released “1001 Nights in Iraq: The Shocking Story of an American Forced to Fight for Saddam Against the Country He Loves”, routinely finds himself in the wrong place at the wrong time. During the first Gulf War, he got caught inside Iraq’s closed borders and was forced by Saddam Hussein to fight in the Iraqi army AGAINST his own country! We’ll find out what life was like in the Iraq Army and how he found love in a most unusual place.

All that plus your calls at 646-652-4804, an update into what Jared our intern has accomplished and Vinny Bond will fill in for Jane live from his couch!
