One Year Blogsteinversary!

Monday, February 11th, 2008

Coming up this week on DR. BLOGSTEIN’S RADIO HAPPY HOUR: (Live on Tuesday February 12th at 9PM ET and forever archived at BlogTalkRadio.)

Join us as we celebrate our One Year Blogsteinversary!

It was February 13, 2007 when the Radio Happy Hour served up their first frosty mug of funny and changed the face of internet radio forever. We’ll celebrate by spending the hour patting ourselves on the back and discussing how great we all are.

superjabs.jpgWe’ll also welcome in a man who changed the face of MySpace forever. “Super Jabs” is the #1 most read blogger on MySpace. He has a rabid following for what he describes as “the blog equivalent of bare knuckles boxing.”

He’ll share with us “what every guy would love to say but won’t and what every woman thinks but won’t speak of”, explain how he knows all this and discuss why BlogTalkRadio thought he needed Dr. Blogstein as a co-host for his internet radio show.

Also, comedian Johnny Dam and a few surprise guests to wish us a Happy Blogsteinversary!

All that, plus, the beautiful Dangerous Lee co-hosts, Supreme Commander of the Cyberwaves Vinny Bond drags his Big Leather Couch into the Radio Happy Hour Lounge to chat live with the listeners and Justin the Weatherman stops in with a forecast and we’ll take your calls at 646-652-4804

Join us live every Tuesday night at 9PM ET. The Radio Happy Hour Lounge-a live chat room during show time-is a whole new reason to make sure you listen live! It’s the show within the show!

But if you can’t and miss us live, we’re ALWAYS ON at www.DrBlogstein.com

Blogstein Summer Internship: Do You Have What It Takes?

Wednesday, April 18th, 2007

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!

Dopey Headed Shmoes

Saturday, April 14th, 2007

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.

Lex Luthor IS a villian!

Monday, January 22nd, 2007

Well, I suppose when you deal with a ruthless enemy of “Truth, Justice and the American Way” you’re bound to get burned. I learned that first hand this morning when a press release came across my desk in the Dr. Blogstein Newsroom.

The headline read: ‘Lex Luthor’ Hosts ‘Father Felony’ Live On The Radio

That’s right. Lex Luthor, who’s real name is Edmond McGuyer, has signed himself up for some internet radio time and booked Randall Radic on his show.

Yes, that Lex Luthor, who according to him, I created, and according to me, I gave tons of exposure to his business, as well as offline help, that I’ve never revealed, with writing press releases for his ventures.

Now, he has swooped in and will try to launch a radio show before Dr. Blogstein’s Radio Happy Hour hits the air waves (on Tuesday February 13th at 9PM ET) and is stealing a guest that if it weren’t for me, he would have never heard of!

Shame on you Lex! You’ve got some ’splaining to do!

"Dr. Blogstein was a huge hit!"

Wednesday, January 17th, 2007

“My Point Radio” of the BTR network went back on the air this morning still glowing from their show Monday night which featured me as their guest.

As you’ll recall, because it was only two days ago and because I wont stop reminding you, I was such a huge hit that Alan Levy, the CEO of Blog Talk Radio, called in to offer me my own show (which will debut next month!)

But back to this morning’s show, click here then go to the player on the right hand side of the page. Press play and fast forward to the 15:40 mark to where they begin talking about yours truly. You’ll here things like David Odeen of “My Point” saying that my appearance was a “huge success” and Jenn of the Jungle of Screw Politically Correct BS” saying that I have a “great radio voice.” I couldn’t agree with them more!

Keep listening though, because at the 17:43 mark you’ll hear Jenn refer to our Jewish Puerto Rican African Indian American Princess Tisha as a “stalker.” Uh oh! I do hope Jenn knows what kind of wrath she’s opened herself up for!

We may have to settle this when Dr. Blogstein’s Radio Happy Hour debuts in February on Blog Talk Radio!

Have I mentioned that I have a new show coming?

UPDATE 1/19/07 According to David Odeen of “My Point Radio”, my appearance on his show was his most downloaded show ever! He indicates that I “blew away” his previous high.

Radio Debut

Monday, January 15th, 2007

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 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!
