Thanks to the hard work of members of the FreeRepublic Network, Webcast "RadioFR" will be broadcast every Thursday at 6pm PDT/9pm EDT! Our inaugural show will be rolled out and launched this Thursday, September 27th! "Unspun with AnnaZ" with co-host "Mercuria" will be hosting and discussing pertinent and topical issues with their usual irreverence and wit, and, they will be taking calls from listeners!

In addition, we have shows lined up with hosts CongressmanBillyBob ("Twash and Twiddle" from Free Republic's own CyberCongressman!), Sussa ("On Target with John Bender"...2nd Amendment issues), TLBSHOW ("Leashing the Attack Dogs"...keeping an eye on DNC attack chihuahuas, Registered ("Free Republic's HTML and Graphics Cyber Cafe"), and are reviewing proposals from "Doug From Upland", "IronJack", "TrueBlackMan" and a few others! In the future we are planning on adding features such as interviews, townhalls, remote broadcasts and debates!

To listen to the shows you must have Windows Media Player. We suggest you download the latest version and I've been told there is a version for Mac's. The show host will be posting a notice prior to each broadcast with instructions (basically a couple of clicks!), but, if you don't see it, this is all you have to do to access the shows!

1. Go to http://www.theotherradionetwork.com/pgs/schedule.htm
2. Find the "RadioFR" logo on the schedule and click!
3. Wait for your Windows Media player to come up and FReep while you enjoy the show!

If any FReepers have suggestions, an idea for a segment or guest, or are interested in submitting a proposal for a show of your own, get your ideas together and we will be accepting applications shortly! If you are interested in discussing ideas with segment producers, FReepmail to these people...

Serial Show Producer - Diotima
Interviews and Townhalls - The Shrew and Ironjack
Debates - Sussa
Remote Broadcasts - Doughtyone

General questions can be submitted to myself (Bob J) or Ms. AntiFeminazi (Scheduling Manager and Show Coordinator)!

[diotima]

[Bob J]

Yes, our engineer and studio host "agitator", will be archiving the shows during our "beta" period (first 12 weeks or 12 shows). After that we will need someone's hard disk. I'm sure we can work something out with Nick Danger and the FreeRepublic Network (freeper.org) website.

Wow! BTTT

[DainBramage]

Three...

Two....

One...and your on

Ah Hum....People are pacing around here in Texas, seemingly impatient,
and...... at the same time anxious for the first broadcast.

The excitement is almost palpable and a certain thrill seems to be in the air,
as our great state awaits the heralding of the curtain call.

I'm Dainbramage in Fort Worth

Back to you Bob

[Inspector Harry Callahan]

Thanks for the flag Dio. I will be listening. Will this be on shortwave in the future?

[eureka!]

Cool. FreeRepublic grows. Bump...

[cmsgop]

The Pinto got Stolen,......But I got a Handle on it!

[TLBSHOW]

Hey Bulldog,
Now now now be nice, a little self promotion is just what the doctor ordered in times like this.

Anyways TLBSHOW will never be able to please everyone. But I promise to freep em good. The DNC and DemocRATS attack dogs I mean.

LOL

[Bob J]

Hopefully, we'll have "reporters" all over the country. With a satellite phone, we can do remote broadcasts from just about anywhere there isn;t a phone line or cell service. For example, if we were up and running, we could have had Jeff Head to a live remote from Klamath.

They are kinda pricey to rent so that feature we'll have to be judicious about.

My Shih-Tzu will do an Exclusive........

Be forwarned, some of the resident internet scum are already plotting their spamming of the radio show. Check it out

[diotima]

I don't think it will, Harry.
I am glad you will be listening! If you have any show ideas, let me know.
