Fri, 7 September 2007  (Click the "POD" icon above at anytime to hear the show in your media player) Welcome, Listeners! Our Flagship broadcast of the radio show "Run, Sam. Run!" was a lot of fun, and ended up being an opportunity to "work the kinks out" and get comfortable with being "on the air". We began by first introducing the cast to the listeners. I began with my very lovely co-host, Ms. Andgie Remy. (Yes, she spells her name with a "d" and her last name REALLY is Remy). I MUST admit that she looked absolutely intoxicating (pun intended). Next I introduced "Dre" (LeAndre Simmons) who we later found out should take his own advice on small/medium size businesses needing to learn and implement a "Project Management" methodology across the entire spectrum of operations, including Sales and Marketing. It seems that his nerves had him also forget the name of his own company "Captin Courier™". Lastly, but not at all least, I introduced our show's producer and facilitator of Power In Numbers™ studios, Mr. Lee Kantor. You all may know him as "the Fat Guy" from the very successful "Dr. Fitness and the Fat Guy" weekly radio show that takes place every Thursday evening from 7:30 to 8:30. Andgie wasn't the only angel in the building, however. Power In Numbers™ CEO, Mrs. Maria Flores sat in on the set; although she was too shy to "mike up" and join us formally on the show. She is HOT! ...and not just because she is my wife! It is a treat to be on the inside of the studio just for the scenary; even if we do "stink up the airwaves" with our commentary. (...and she IS hot! Ask anybody!) The first segment was full of nervous tension and "bloopers". I myself had a couple of classics like using the word "collaborate" when I meant "consolidate" and making the statement that "...within ten years of their husbands death, a widows financial status will significantly INCLINE (vice decline)". In spite of those things we pushed on and worked through Andgie's first "Topic of the Week"; which was "Who/What is Power In Numbers™ and What Is Its Connection With Run, Sam. Run!" I started out with a very informative (and exceedingly boring) explanation, followed by a very wordy input by Dre. Although this was a lot of fun, neither of us will be quitting our day jobs to become radio personalities! Andgie was...well...she was cute! She also was exceedingly funny. The combination of her sharp wit and almost out of place airheadedness (for someone so intelligent) lightened up the atmosphere for the second half of the show. She gave her Weekly Shopping Tips to all of the sexy, broke female listeners following a very comical segment of Dre's Marketing Tips of the Week. The combination of Mrs. Flores backseat driving and Lee's experience saved the day and made for an absolutely fantastic second half of the show. We discussed the book that coincides with the show, some interesting facts about some of Wal-marts predatory practices and how both of these topics tied into what we are attempting to do with the show. You do NOT want to miss this segment! It was powerful and intriguing, and epitomizes what this show is supposed to be about! Andgie read a quote used in the book Run, Sam. Run! by Edward Everett Hale that sums up the entire gambit of our mission: "I am only one, but I am one. I cannot do everything, but I can do something. And because I cannot do everything, I will not refuse to do the something that I can do. What I can do, I should do. And what I should do, by the grace of God, I will do." I hope that you enjoy listening to the show and making fun of us as much as we had making the show (and making fun of ourselves). Until next week... Do what you can! Jay Comments[0] |
