Default Blind Man\'s Bluff (radio show on-air tomorrow!)

Hello OOT.

Some of you will remember that I was preparing to start a radio show a month or so back, and I solicited suggestions for music, topics, etc. Just to warn you, OOT, there is p*ker content in this show, and hence, probably in this discussion. But OOT is where I live so I'm posting it here.

The show will be on WBCR-LP Great Barrington (97.7) on Mondays from 1:30 - 2:30 PM. I doubt most of you are in the listening area, but on the off chance anyone lurking here lives in or around GB, tune in. For everyone else, I will be recording it and will seed a torrent or upload it to YouSendIt or something if there's interest. If anyone wants to host a ~60 min mp3 of the show, great.

I don't have a guest lined up for the first show so there will be more music and short segments (to avoid the ranting lunatic effect of talking on the radio alone).

This is what we're looking at so far:

"Don't Be a Nit"
"Hosting a Home Game" (rules, tips, security etc)
Problem Gambling / Bankroll Management
Book Review - Small Stakes Hold'em by Ed Miller
...and a few sample hand exercises.

Here's the main thing I need your help with: For music, the general tone is going to be more up-tempo stuff, although there will be exceptions - a mix of American roots music, punk rock, independent stuff, etc. I'm not so much with the current hip music, so if anyone wants to suggest some good songs I can download to go in a similar vein to these artists and songs, go ahead:

Leatherface - Springtime
Lou Reed - The Power of Positive Drinking
Morphine - Cure for Pain
The Clash - Complete Control
The Red Elvises - Lonely Highway of Love
Tom Waits - Cold Water
Townes Van Zandt - Pancho and Lefty
Stiff Little Fingers - Wasted Life
The Misfits - Some Kinda Hate

etc. etc. Or any of you cool kids who just want to give me some good new rock music that you think deserves to be on the radio is fine too.

Also, this is a call for anyone who is a:

- 2+2 author, employee or representative
- winning professional (live or internet)
- casino employee or former employee


...or otherwise notable or interesting person to contact me if interested in doing an interview or promotional spot for the show. The station is totally nonprofit and we do not accept advertising or underwriting. Therefore there are strict limitations on what I can say about the company on the air (specifically, I cannot give out any pricing information or discuss sales, etc). However, I am able as a DJ to mention quality products or companies, such as 2+2, and would be happy to have people on the station to discuss their books or their work in the industry.

These spots can be of any length, and can be prerecorded by phone or conducted live on the air (by phone or in person). I am able and willing to prerecord and edit interviews with the participants.

I hope this is an acceptable notice to post to the board. Again, this is a non-profit show and station and I'd just like to invite members of this community to take part in it if they are interested.

Please PM me with any questions.

Regards,
NT

Haven't posted in the Zoo in years. WTF are you talking about? But thanks for your faith in OOT. I think.
