the B B & Guns debut!

Okay, everyone - synchronize your watches. Bonnie and I will be live and on the air at 6PM EST on B B & Guns, our brand spankin' new show on BTR.

This first show is going to be an introduction to both your hosts and the type of show you can expect from B B & Guns. We'd love for everyone to register at BTR, so you can join us in the chat - interaction with listeners is part of what makes doing these shows so much fun. There will also be a call-in number to talk to us live.

B B & Guns! 1st show! Tonight!

(by the way...I'm a jangle of nerves today, between the excitement and the trepidation. My worries include:
-It's been a while since I've worked the BTR switchboard.
-BTR borking in the middle of the show.
-I haven't really spent a lot of time talking one-on-one with Bonnie , so it'll be an adventure finding our rhythm.
-I just realized that for someone who's consistently an INTJ on those Myers-Briggs personality tests I sure spend a lot of time talking on internet radio and podcasts.
-Prank callers, ack.
-I need to stop psyching myself out.

But despite all that, I've got a very good feeling about new show. It's going to be awesome, just wait and see.)

Dang, won't be able to listen to your inaugural show. Get off of work to late.

Will there be an option of listening to it later?

I plan on being a prank caller, so if you can put up with me you can put up with the worst.

(Actually I can't be there live. But I'm sure you will do OK. Relax. It will come out fine.)

Great, now you know you're gonna get a prank caller....

I won't be able to make the 6PM debut, but I'll try and catch the back half.

You slackers aren't taking vacation time to listen?

Fanboi Fail.

"...INTJ..." Ah. But being an "Introvert" on the MBTI test only means you meet the outer world with your weaker function (fool others into thinking you're an SF when "really" you're an NT) -- and the L33t social skillz are STRONG with you! [And of course most people don't know what we're talking about, so I'll stop.] You'll do great!

Mike W. said...

I'm with Daniel. You'll do just fine.

Me on the radio on the other hand would be massive FAIL.

Wow, it's been a long time since I logged into BTR. I wonder what my password was?

You're going to do great! Just have fun with it!

Jeanne S said...

Ditto what Kevin said. Would love to listen to it later, if that's possible!

Lissa said...

You'll be great! I promise!!

11pm over here in merry old England, great time. I used to stay up till 2am for your old show. I'm sure you'll do fine, looking forward to tonight.

I hope I'll get to listen to it (or at least part of it) but I'm not usually home and reclined by 6pm.

That being said, the nerves are normal, but you can ditch some of the fears.

Have a peek at your site meter, and have Bonnie do the same. These are people who are interested in what you have to say, a good number of them would call one or both of you "friend" (and some of them might become the reciprocal of that)

If BTR crashes and burns at 5pm today and doesn't roll back to life until 10pm, you'll still have a crowd of anxious fans waiting for the NEXT show.

As I've said before, Breda, you need to embrace your inner awesome!!

This will go JUST fine for you!

This.

I don't know why you'd be worried Breda. It's not like you haven't done this before.

Oh, and now you won't have to fight just to get a word in. :)

It will be EPIC, and I'll be listening. :)

I think listening to the show at work is a violation of internet usage policy.

Screw 'em. I'll tune in.

This show is AWESOME!!!

Mad Saint Jack said...

Just like falling off a bike...

wait, that doesn't sound right.

That show was awesome!.... but what's with that dude who called in at the end? He totally ruined it! :)

Ladyfox said...

Darn it I got too busy at work to tune in for your first show. Any chance this will be up on iTunes soon?

That was an awesome show - I'm glad that I stayed up to tune in! Looking forward to more and, of course, congrats to both of you. :)
