Game Time Hits The Airwaves In Vancouver

PrintIn this crazy, mixed-up bloggy world we live in, you never know who's e-mail will grace the in-box. It might be Norm Sanders with the Bellville News Democrat. Other days it might be the father of a young Blues player who's following us on Twitter now. And one day this week, it was Orland Kurtenblog asking us to appear on their radio show.
Cool boombox, dude.
Now this isn't just some Internet radio thing. And it's not a podcast like the picture suggests. They actually host a real radio show on Team 1040 in Vancouver. And if you weren't aware, that's the station that broadcasts Canucks games. Their show runs 9:30 a.m. - noon PDT every Sunday. Following their show today is coverage of the Canucks' playoff game. It runs from the end of the Kurtenbloggers until 9 p.m. In other words NINE FULL HOURS OF HOCKEY COVERAGE. Holy crap.
Gallagher has some family stuff to do with one of his kids, so I get to go on the air and suffer the slings and arrows of the Canucks bloggers with their team in control of the playoff series. But it should be fun. I'm supposed to be on around 11 a.m. Vancouver time (1 p.m. in St. Louis). You can go to the Team 1040 Web site and stream the show live. What's the worst that could happen?
The FCC can't fine you for a Canadian radio show, can they?

No, the FCC can't get you...
…but the Canadians might haul you before an HRC (Human Rights Commission), as if Canucks fans are humans. Tread carefully my friend!
Just an insurance policy if some cant make it...
Can you get a recording of the broadcast and post it on the site?
That would be great...
I need to do some productive yard work or something today to make up for the drunken super fan beast I will become later.

9 full hours of hockey coverage. Hot damn.
But congrats Brad, enjoy yourself and make a Sedin joke or two.
Put that shit back on the shelf!

Have fun and play dirty.
Just wanted to check in and say, “GO BLUES!”
I have a long drive to the game…but it’s going to be off the hook tonight!
Gotta good feeling…how about you guys
That's fantastic
The Team 1040 is extremely popular in BC. I live 13 hours north of Vancouver and I listen to it all the time! Those Kurtenbloggers are hilarious so I know you’ll have a good time.
Congrats.
They just mentioned SLGT and Brad Lee
Woohoo.
The homers also pointed out it was a stupid play to slewfoot Crombeen since they were up 3-0 and about to take a 2-0 lead in games.

That's what you get for thinkin'.

Maybe they decided not to talk to him
After all, he is a lousy Blues fan, mua ha ha ha.
They are talking about weathering the storm. Apparently it’s going to be loud at Scottrade or something.
My sarcasm detector
is going crazy. Guess I need to send it to the factory for re-calibration.

I’d tune in, but I’d like to hear it all at once.
SOmebody’s got a recording going, right?

I have a website,
Should I just host it and embed? or make a you-tube video with a graphic for video? (for embedding purposes)
Whatever it takes?
I have it too
in MP3 but it comes in when you talk of the sounds of people jumping off bandwagon

Thanks for all the compliments
That was fun even though I was kind of talking fast. HOPEFULLY they can call me before game six next week.

You really want to end the series and then go hang out at Winging It? I doubt that.
