GOT A PERMANENT RADIO SHOW GIG

Dear Fellow Aspiring Economists!

Good news. I have been given a permanent radio show gig at AM 1500 in Minneapolis.

Was actually given the gig a couple weeks back, but didn't mention it here because I was contemplating whether I'd want to keep the show and blog seperate entities.

However, I started getting calls from San Francisco and other far flung places whilst broadcasting and it occurred to me that while Minneapolis is a big town, this blog has attracted some of the smarter/more-economically educated people from across the planet which would cause for a more interesting and engaging show.

That and it throws off the radio show folk how I get calls from 2,000 miles away.

Anyway, the show is called "The Economics Supper Club" it broadcasts;

SATURDAYS FROM 1-3PM CENTRAL STANDARD TIME

You can go to this web site to get the streamlining/webbroadcasting thing they got going on;

The long distance number is 1-877-615-1500

Feel free to listen and call in!

And I didn't find out about it until after it was over. I'll catch it next week, though.

Congratulations!

It was sweet! Young Derek from SF called in.

That being said the second part of the show sucked because I kept getting interrupted with breaks and couldn't focus on the callers. Ran out of time. This stuff I'm hoping will work itself out as I get the hang of it.
