Well Gentlemen, The meeting went very well today. Although, contracts haven't been signed yet, but WRRD 540 am station is excited to have MAN-TALK as part of their regular local shows. We still have some details to cover, but putting it bluntly Man-Talk is gonna be ON THE AIR! We are discussing having the show air live weekday evenings, the rebroadcast taped show on Saturday afternoons. By pure luck the station, which airs many national taped shows, is pushing to bring in local shows. Here comes Man-Talk. (Being a christian station, I did slip in a spiritual aspect to the show which helped to show them that Man-Talk will fit their basic formats. It doesn't mean I'm reading scripture and any wackadoo prayers or any WWJD....I did emphasize how a man being in touch with his feelings can strengthen his passion towards his faith.) So, they have this new challenge and BAM, they receive a phone from an old friend and employee, Elizabeth, who tells them about this guy she met(thats me) and the show I've created. They're interest was tweaked AND it seemed to fit exactly what they were looking for.
Plus, as he heard me speak during the meeting, the program director thought I was a natural and had no qualms of me hosting/co-hosting my own show.(yes, Elizabeth will be co-hosting....BUT I"M THE STAR DAMN IT!!!)
Here I am with NO DEGREE, NO PHD...not a therapist or psychiatrist....and I'm about to put on my own show which will cover as far north as Green Bay and as far South as S.Chicago. That is cool, that I'll be heard in FREAKIN' CHICAGO!!!!!
Just another example guys, just like Curtis' story getting involved in Star Trek, if you let your passion guide you and your confidence in what you do strengthen you to ram through any obsticles, you can create your visions! The world can be your oyster!
While we prepare and discuss more details, before we sign contracts, I've got to wait for court hearing for divorce to be final. * I didn't expect all this to happen so fast. I mean, I thought of this crazy idea of a show 3 months ago!!! I aired my first show TWO months ago...and now I'm about to do a regular show!!!
Now, for the down side: I will mind my Ps and Qs. No more on-line Mr. X.....no more Darkmynd.....no more seducing women and having any other nastiness within arms reach (sniff). I've got to change my lifestyle to best reflect what I preach.....no more sneaking into the dark realms..(sniff, sniff) This is gonna suck...I have a real problem with this as I don't like to be placed on a pedestal. I don't like being viewed as better than, or fixed, or being an example....I like being just as screwed up, jacked up, wacked out as the rest of us. Am I saying I want to be able to get into trouble and not be held accountable? YES I AM. Why???? Good question...I'll let you guys analyze me and tell me why.
Well, much to do. I've got to write out a new incantation and place it in a greeting card and drive over to Kim's and hand it to her. Later, I've got to start looking for sponsors for the show. I'll just pull out the yellow pages, and start writing down names. Between Elizabeth and I, I feel confident we can get the sponsors so we can pay the station for the air time and get some additional coinage for ourselves.
Hey Ken, if you feel up to it....I could use some logo ideas for Man-Talk.
