I'm going to be on the radio today.

[Skinner]

I'm appearing on the "Left Turn on Bird Street" radio show today (Monday) at 12:00 noon (9:00AM PT). It's a liberal morning show based out of Sacramento, and the hosts are Dan Gougherty and Tom Nadeau.

Here are the instructions they gave me to listen. I can't figure them out. If some of you understand it would be helpful if you posted in this thread to explain...

The show will be broadcast over the Internet through Yahoo. Go to the chat link and look under the Government & Politics section, then click on the users rooms called "Left Turn on Bird Street."

For more information, you can visit these websites...

2. Can we call in?

Can we discuss what REALLY goes on in the mod forum? :evilgrin:

[Kamika]

3. I think it's easy

You need the yahoo messanger so you can chat.. then just go to goverment & politics then go to "user rooms", there should be rooms like "Bush is a big huge mistake", "white power" etc etc and amongst those there SHOULD be a room called "Left turn on Bird street"

It's not there yet though

8. I created the room just now.

It should be up soon. (15 minutes???)

[Kamika]

15. is that so smart?

Maybe it needs to be created by the interviewers

[soup]

10. thank you Kamika

How confusing is this for someone whose never been there? :crazy:

Think I've figured it out.

http://www.yahoo.com/
click on 'chat' (look on left side for connect
log on.
'download' the whatevers.
go to 'government and politics'.
enter 'politics lobby'.
click 'change rooms'.
upper right corner click 'user rooms'.
look for 'left turn on Bird Street' to appear.

am I there yet?
PLEASE correct me if I have this wrong.

4. question

Has any major news or magazine publications every done an expose on you? Did some searches but didn't come up with anything. I'd kinda like to put a face with a name.

[Skinner]

6. Techie request

If any good hearted techies get a chance to listen (or figure out how to listen) and make an audio file I'm sure many Duers who won't be able to tune to the live broadcast would be immensly appreciative.

7. Easy instructions:

Start here: http://chat.yahoo.com/

Click on government/politics - this will take you to the login screen. If you have a yahoo account, sign in. If not, create one. Once logged in, look at top right and you'll see this a list of chat rooms. Click on user rooms, scroll down to radiofreeoroville and click on it. You'll be asked to install some java chat software - easy enough. Turn up your volume and enjoy. I'll be listening Skinner - break a leg. :)

[brainshrub]

23. Great interview!

I liked how you dodged the question about the canidate!

[Skinner]

25. LOL

Yes, I did kinda dodge the question, didn't I.

Well, I do believe that every one of the candidates would be better than Bush. And I have not chosen a favorite at this time, so it was true.

Thanks for emailing the questions! They were great! :thumbsup:
