I Have a Radio Show!

One of the best things about the FUNKYBROWNCHICK.com is its readers. YOU. Yes, you. Sure, yeah, *I* blog the posts and design the pages. But, the real fun happens when we all interact via the comment section. So, I’m really excited that I’ve been given an opportunity to take that interaction a step further. Believe or not, I now have my own radio show!!! Yep, that’s right. The Funky Brown Chick is going live with a weekly internet radio show based on my blog.

It’s called Dating Roadkill and it airs Mondays at 10:00PM EST starting January 1. Basically, Dating Roadkill allows people to share stories about the dating world. Read about it here on my blog, or you can visit the show’s site over at BlogTalkRadio. (By the way, no worries; if you can’t catch it live on Monday nights, the next day you can listen to it on your iPod or listen online via streaming audio at work.)

I’m excited about it, and I really hope that you guys will take part! I need your help. When January 1 comes around, please take a listen to the show & give me feedback later. Also, if you do indeed listen to the show that day, I hope you’ll call in and participate. Like this blog, at least 1/2 of the fun is YOU. And, finally, if you’d like to be a guest on Dating Roadkill, let me know. The show’s first segment is Worst Dating Stories Ever. If you have a really really good “bad date” story or know someone who does, definitely shoot me an email.

I got your email last night and I couldn’t be happier or prouder of you. This is an amazing thing to take to the next level and I can’t wait to hear it. Mondays are rough for me since I work like 14 hours a day, but I will be listening if nothing else. The page is bookmarked and if there is a topic that I have a good story for you, I will make the effort to call in.

Congrats! This is so cool!

That is so awesome! So when you get to be famous, I can say, I knew her when…

Cant wait!

Oh, I’m not so sure about this “famous” stuff. It’s just a radio show. Besides, at this point, I’m just hoping that a few people actually tune in and listen to it. :)

Awww, thanks!!! I can’t wait to do it. I think it’s gonna be a lot of fun. CALL IN. I’ve never heard any of my readers’ voices and I think that would be fun.

I got all of them, but since I have never been to NYC, how do you say “Houston St”?

FUNKY BROWN CHICK December 16, 2006 at 1:30 pm

Houston Street is pronounced “HOW-stun” here.

This is so cool! I’m really really happy for you!

I’m not sure if the time difference is compatible, and I don’t think I can afford to call in, or is that part of it online too? Will it be out as a podcast then?

PLEASE give me the links and the instructions for it, because I would totally love to listen to it:) Sorry but I’m really rubbish at online radio stuff, so if you’d spell out how to set it up, you’ll have yourself a loyal listener!

Darwin: Thanks! :) And no worries — you’re not alone. I’ve received a few emails & questions asking “how exactly does that work?” I’ll post more details later this week.

HDW: Thanks!! :-) And, by the way, I saw the final votes. Congrats to you for being one of the top blogs on the net!
