Dan from the Bronx

Last Saturday on my radio show somebody called in that I have received a lot of positive feedback regarding. Dan from the Bronx made the show memorable. His genuine personality and Bronx accent reached out to you, made you feel at home on the show. What a fantastic caller to have. If you missed it, go to Political Pistachio Radio and listen to the March 17th archive.

Anyhow, his blogtalk radio show premiered tonight, and what a great show. Very entertaining. Yours truly called in during the first half, and relayed my story about my visit to New York, an experience I had at ground zero, a comment about New York pizza, and how I learned during my visit to the New York area how huge the rivalry truly is between the Yankees and the Red Sox. Access his show here.

And as an added note, this Saturday, on the 24th of March, the main subject of the Political Pistachio Radio show will be the Great Global Warming Lie! Call in, chime in, let me know what you think about this issue. The show will go live at 4pm Pacific Time, 7pm Eastern. Dial in to be on the show and give your twenty cents of opinion at

Mrs. Pistachio completes me

After audio trouble, last Saturday's show became wonderful once Mrs. Pistachio got on the air. Her comment that illegal aliens are like dogs digging under a fence to get out of their backyard was priceless! Anyhow, she is on the show for a reason. Besides, she completes me in all aspects of life, so why would the show be any different. Now, we have made sure that she will be on the show from the get-go, so this upcoming show on March 17, 2007 at 4 pm Pacific/7 pm Eastern will be a good one. And if you want to call in to Political Pistachio Radio, dial (646-652-2940). Hope to hear from you this Saturday.

The "No Mudkitty" episode is on the archives.



the show was better, especially after I eliminated microphone problems halfway through the show. Mudkitty did not call in, and Mrs. Pistachio shined.

The shows keep getting better.

Tune in at Blog Talk Radio.

Making the show more professional

On Political Pistachio Radio this Saturday, I am attempting to make the show more like this blog (You know, seriously political with the occasional hint of humor when you least expect it), and less like a group phone call. The subjects I plan to touch on this Saturday are: Illegal Immigration, The Ten Commandments on Court Houses, Iraq, A showdown between two Mexicans and a black California Highway Patrol Officer I witnessed on the streets of Temecula (in California), Condi Rice as a possible candidate in 2008?, Political Correctness, and Barack Obama paying parking tickets 17 years late!

During the show you may call in (if you want to comment on the topics on the table) at (646) 652-2940, or you may comment at politicalpistachio at yahoo dot com, or make comments as the show progresses live through Yahoo Messenger (my ID is douglasvgibbs).

Another show, another lesson learned

Show number two was relatively successful. We stuck to politics, and I let Mudkitty have it when I felt it was necessary. I even advised her that I see her as a car wreck. People don't want to know any details, yet they still look as they drive by.

Numbers were a little lower, but the show was a little better. Time to market a little harder.

Oh, and the lesson I learned? Live feed dies at the one hour mark, and I need to keep an eye on the clock.

Lesson learned.

As the shock of the first show winds down. . .

Political Pistachio Radio was a success, I think, maybe, possibly. Now that I have a new microphone, the show will include me as well. Mudkitty, my resident liberal, however, ran away with the show. Did I cater to her? Perhaps. But this Saturday, the liberal visitor of many conservative blogs is going down, and I plan to enjoy watching Mrs. Pistachio accomplish that feat.

Huh?

That's right, I got ran over by a Mack Truck called Mudkitty, and Mrs. Pistachio wants to know why, and she'll do more than ask Mudkitty why she doesn't believe in God. Listen to the fireworks go off this Saturday at 4 pm Pacific/7 pm Eastern/2 am somewhere in Europe.

oo-rah!

Premiere of Political Pistachio Radio

This Saturday on the premiere of my internet radio show at BlogTalk Radio I will be discussing "Where the Liberal Left Misses the Whole Point," and the letter I had to write because the local school district believes that they are a better parent than myself and have more of a right to teach my child about "morality" than I do. Tune in at 4pm Pacific/7pm Eastern at www.blogtalkradio.com/politicalpistachio - or listen later by accessing the archive.

It's Official

BlogTalk Radio

Wide Awakes Radio is suffering from stream problems, and until they get it all straightened out, I plan to use BlogTalk Radio to have my shows. Probably a mid-week show and a Saturday show.

Branching Out

As the date of my Saturday radio show's premiere on Wide Awakes Radio remains unconfirmed, I am considering adding a Tuesday night show on Blog Talk Radio. I will keep you posted.

Currently the stream is down, my show is on pause

As Wide Awakes Radio attempts to update their system, the radio show is on hold until further notice. I hope next weekend I'll be on. Stay tuned.

Still waiting for confirmation of premiere date

Wide Awakes Radio is currently off the air as the owner of the network changes the servers hoping to provide a better stream, and more options for the listeners, such as podcasting.

The premiere date for Political Pistachio Radio is still not confirmed. . . I will post the date when it is. The original plan was to have the new servers up immediately after the Super Bowl, but Kender has encountered some unexpected obstacles.

When I first began discussing the upcoming show, I stated the premiere date could be either February 10th, or the 17th. As the 10th approaches, I am saddened to say it may be pushed to the 17th.

Everything is being done to bring the premiere date up as soon as possible, and I am chomping at the bit to get the show started.

Stay tuned.

Saturday, January 27, 2007

Political Pistachio Radio will air on Wide Awakes Radio on Saturdays, 5:00 pm to 7:00 pm Pacific Time, 8:00 pm to 10:00 pm Eastern Time.

For my European readers/listeners, I am sorry, because that is after midnight on the other side of the pond. As the show grows in popularity, I will try to also add a morning show (which is in the afternoon for those in Europe). Stay tuned.

Premiere date will probably be February 10th, 2007, but that date has still not been confirmed, yet. I will keep you posted.

Downloading shows so that you may listen later is a possibility. Again, I will keep you posted.
