Re: Re: Re: they read my email

Re: they read my email

Joe!!! YAY!! I didn't know that was you that got the trivia question!! YAY AGAIN!! I didn't listen to the question correctly and I rushed to write an email and I screwed it up!! Congratulations Joe!

And sabra...I'll get back to you about my voice..I am listening to the show again right now and I am cringing because I know I am going to hear my voice and it scares me!!

Re: they read my email

It was great "hearing" all of you on the show (I've just listened to the podcast), even those who participated (as I did) by email.

Thanks for participating, and making it such a good show -- I thought it was great fun! And congrats on winning the DVD, Joe.

Re: Re: they read my email

I got the following email from KSAV earlier today. First chance I had to post it. Gloat, gloat. This is how a certain Mr. Simpson feels just before he really, really screws something up.
I did not get to hear all the broadcast, I had to go to bed in order to be at least semi awake today at work. Will definetly download and listen to the podcast when available. Wonder if they read any of the several questions I emailed 'em? From what I heard before sleep, and what I have read from members who got to participate live, all my questions got covered! Great! Way to go folks, let people know the Lieutenant is still popular. Sounds like there was no dead air. If only Fielding Chase could have moderated.

Joe (trying to be humble). Gloat, gloat.


Hi Joe;
Thank you for listening and participating in my program last night. I have your dvd all packaged and will mail it today or Thursday. I am adding you to my list of those receiving weekly e-mail program announcements in the hope I will have future programs of interest to you. I will remove you any time you request. I hope you will be in the audience often and thank you for your interest in my show.

Re: they read my email

Hey Joe, thanks for sharing the email response. The archived podcast can be found there already. Not positive, but I believe they first addressed one or 2 of your questions, then came back to your email later and answered another one. Sorry if I'm remembering that wrong -- check it out.

Re: they read my email

First of all...sabra...I sounded like a moron!!!! I also sounded like I was 12 years old or something!! When I listened to it again today I was laughing my butt off because I sounded like such a freak! And my Jersey accent was out of control!!
And Joe, I got a very nice email also. I thought that was nice. They read part of your one email and then the guy said something like, this guy Joe must think that this show will go to 6 in the morning!! I guess you asked a lot of questions, huh?!
And Ted I heard your email being read too, and I said "hey!! I know that guy!!" I did mention this site in my email but they didn't read that part because I wound up getting the courage to call in. I tried to fit it in when I was talking but I didn't get the chance. I was so nervous!! It was the first time I ever did something like that. It was a lot of fun....and Mark was very nice.

Re: they read my email

My own email, I admit, did mention that I was Ted Kerin from (shameless plug!) the Ultimate Columbo Site -- but that was mainly because Mark has been kind enough to correspond with me and with Stephen over the years, and I greatly value his emails, so I was just identifying myself to him.

But I wasn't surprised when the site wasn't mentioned on the show -- there's some kind of sensitivity about that in the broadcast media, I have found (even, I guess, for a strictly no-profit, non-commercial site like this one). When I was on "The View," I was given strict pre-show instructions to NOT mention the web site on the air -- which was never my intention anyway, but the point is, they have a "thing" about it.

However, I thought it was clever on Mark Dawidziak's part, and not necessarily a coincidence, when if I'm not mistaken, he referred to my question as the "Ultimate Columbo" question.

Re: they read my email

One of my questions was in regards to the website. Interesting that The View made it clear not to mention the website. You wouldn't think that they would be so frightened to mention another "media".

Re: Re: they read my email

Cass,
I've hosted and been a reporter on motorsports radio talk shows for over sixteen years. Everytime I hear my own voice on the radio I think I sound ridiculous (my voice, not the content, LOL). But when I hear the other reporters their voices sound normal to me. I try very hard to hide my Pittsburgh accent, but it comes through big time.

Re: they read my email

Isn't it amazing, TFL? That is not the voice I hear when I speak. It is totally different. What the heck is that all about?!?
And boy!! How cool are you????!! Hosting a radio program...Very cool indeed! It must be a blast! And motorsports, no less, great fun!!
