Rock the radio spot

For those of us who worship the written word, the gift of gab comes slow like maple syrup on a cold winter day. I've been working with my co-workers at SignOn to develop a weekly radio show. It's called Entertainment Live. The show broadcasts live on this Internet radio station called World Talk Radio. It's also archived so listeners can go back and check out old rants.

Today (Thursday), I played host to the show for the first time. Switching gears from writing to talking coherently is tough, but life unchallanged is bland like baby food. The show offers no editing, only your thoughts and thinking on your feet. The trick is filter the random stuff on the fly, like mental gymnastics for the random at heart. Somtimes you're just stuck with vowel movements. Anyway, if you want to hear a writer stumble and bumble his way through his first hosting experience, check this out.
