After way too much hype, which we will moz def NOT live up to, the day is finally upon us when we will be kicking off our new Blog Talk Radio show.
For those of you who don't know, I will be teaming up with an XL-sized father of a 13-year old boy with autism. He is Big. He is a Daddy. His son has Autism. He is Big Daddy Autism, and he blogs here. We had a couple of moderately amusing exchanges on Twitter, and based on that thought that we deserved the world's undivided attention. We were rejected for the Amazing Race when Big Daddy was unable to make it to the airport without stopping at every Burger King along the way. So we're doing this instead.
Big Daddy loves making cartoons, but unfortunately neither of us is tech savvy enough to figure out how to make one of his 74 promos into a link that would actually take you to the site. So you will just have to settle for clicking HERE. Alternatively, you can go to http://www.blogtalkradio.com/ and search on Autism WTF.
We are completely unprepared all set for 9:00am PST/11:00am CST/12:00pm EST tomorrow! Once you're on the site, just make sure your speakers are turned up to hear our dulcet tones. You will see a call-in phone number, but you don't have to call in to listen. That would be the number to call if we were taking callers to appear on the show. Which we're not. Oh, shut up. All of yous. We'll explain why tomorrow. And if you behave, then *maybe* we'll it consider for the next show. If there is a next one.
I'm on the East coast so that might be a bit late for me but I'll try and tune in.
ReplyDeleteWait is that PM or AM?
ReplyDeleteSorry...I made the edit above. 9:00am PST/11:00am CST/12:00pm EST. Also, if you are unable to listen live, the recording will be there for you afterwards to listen to at your leisure!
ReplyDeleteThere's been hype? This is the first I'm hearing of this.
ReplyDeleteOooohhhh.............So, how's it going to work? I'm not sure I understand.....it will work on My Computer? Way cool
ReplyDeleteOMG, I am sooo taking an early lunch break tomorrow because there is no way I'm missing this!!
ReplyDeleteCan't wait! I don't know if I'll be able to listen live or not. I'm stuck with my daughter tomorrow. She has strep throat, so she has to stay home from school, the wuss!
ReplyDelete@Rebecca: Just go to that web page and make sure your volume/speakers are on! You can see how it works if you want by just going to blogtalkradio.com right now and click on any ongoing broadcast. There's no sign in, no nothing!
ReplyDeleteGood luck to both of you tomorrow.
ReplyDeleteThank you for popping by my blog on my SITS day.

Assuming the storm of the day/week/month/year/decade/century continues to plague the Midwest (yet spares electric lines and internet access, I plan on tuning in!
ReplyDeleteGreat idea!
Oh, June Freaking Cleaver, I'm right there with you. The Great Blizzardo of 2011 is on its way. If Audrey gets a snow day, she may be our first guest.
ReplyDeleteSo glad that Georgia will be napping her little heart out while I get to listen!
ReplyDeleteI'll be sure to check it out. ;)
ReplyDeleteI was literally getting my fingers ready to type what Jill wrote! Beotch! Whhhaaaatttt? No callers??? It's because you don't trust us huh? We would totally mess up the show with our shenanigans. But wait, if it's you and BD it is probably going to be all shenanigans.
ReplyDeleteWait! It's tomorrow? Holy crap! I need to find something to wear.
ReplyDeleteGood luck, guys! You'll be great. :-)
ReplyDeletesoooooo cool - break a leg!
ReplyDeleteExciting! I will try to listen in! if I can
ReplyDeleteSo excited!! Wonder who will talk more....hmmm.. Break a leg!!
ReplyDeleteBy "couple of moderately amusing exchanges on Twitter", I assume you meant "daily, forgettable exchanges on Twitter". Good luck with the show.
ReplyDeleteI can't wait! So looking forward to laughing. Noon is an acceptable time to start drinking, right?
ReplyDeletelook forward to it very much
ReplyDeletelove what you two have to say
No calls?? I was just thinking up insightful, dare I say brilliant, questions to ask you both.
ReplyDeleteThat was AWESOME!!!!! You guys better have another one! I already posted on BD saying so!.
ReplyDeletelol I think I listened on my hubbys acct though but I was there!
LOOOOVED it! Great job!!!
ReplyDeleteYou guys were totally awesome and I am so stinkin' happy that we had a snow day so I didn't have to try to hide the fact that I would have been listening to it at work!!!
ReplyDeleteYou guys rocked it!! More, please.
ReplyDeleteNice of you to plan your first show on the day of a blizzard so we all had our kids home, but I managed to keep them quiet and listen--the whole time. It's a miracle!
ReplyDeleteThanks to everyone who listened today and for all of your support!!
ReplyDelete@JennieB: We will take callers for sure next time.
@Trish @Kathy: Thankfully Audrey did not have a snow day today or the show would not have gone on!
@RacersMommy @Grace @ Ashley: Thanks so much...we will return!
Please do another broadcast with call ins! I'll do a long distance chat!
ReplyDeleteI don't know where you found him, but that Big Daddy guy is radio gold. Gold!
ReplyDeleteAhh...glad it went well for you all! Fantastic idea!
ReplyDeletexx Jazzy
Finally got to listening! You should def do it again.
ReplyDeleteGreat job you guys! I began listening and will continue when I have more time. Nice ripping on each other :) You guys make autism seem fun!
ReplyDeleteWell, once I deciphered your strange accents, I thought it was extremely funny. Been reading both blogs for a while and enjoying them immensely. A big thumbs up from down under....where it is 40 degrees C.....snow days indeed.
ReplyDeleteKeep up the great work!!
Again! Again!
ReplyDeleteWe should do a survey or a poll to see what time our fans would want us to do the show.
ReplyDeleteThat was great! Great give and take!! Just like twitter, but out loud and no one else is allowed to contribute to the conversation.......And we got to hear Griffins laugh(awesome).........Oh and both of your accents. Were you two calling in directly from Queens and Fargo or were you in a studio?
ReplyDeleteI'll be listening again:)
I caught the last 10 minutes and sounded like you all were on a role. Looking forward to your next on air talk.
ReplyDeleteListening to your show right now. so cool!
ReplyDeleteYou guys were great - very entertaining, can't wait for the next one. I tried to leave a comment over there last night, but was having trouble. Anyhoo - congrats on a great new endeavor!
ReplyDeleteThis week kicked my ass and I missed it.
ReplyDeleteI will try to catch it tomorrow...
(can't now as I'm hanging out with hubs... yeah yeah yeah, we're in bed, i'm on laptop and he's watching Parks and Rec... is too hanging out dammit!)
Loved it!!
