Loaded shows

Dan here...

Checking in after a hectic Thursday show - a typical Thursday to me - and I've been very excited this morning about what's coming up over the next day or so.

Tonight's "The Ten" will be a re-broadcast as the boys are on vacation, but at 9PM EST we have "My Radio Show" with Matt Chin and Ricky Thompson. Both have a web talk show that you can access at www.myshowscrazy.com.

Tomorrow after BTN (9AM-Noon EST) we have "The Gonzo Report" with B.H. Ramsay at 12, followed by "The Complainers" at 1PM. If you have something to complain about this would be the place to do it.

Tomorrow night a 9PM, Suburban Bass checks in with their mixers and vinyl to bring you the best underground electronic music they have to offer.

Website traffic gets awfully hectic at this time of the week so we hope you can join us right here: www.chevradioam.com.

MLB on Fox and Dan Deeley?

Dan here,

It was pointed out to me on the Fox Blog site that my blog was featured in a commercial for Foxsports. They were showing it on MLB on Fox this past Saturday afternoon during the pre-game. They were promoting their website on a commercial and when they got to the blog section they had the camera on someone's blog with my name "The_Dan", as well as prominent blogger, FlyingPig. I did not get into the game until after the top of the 1st inning between the New York Mets and Detroit Tigers. But I appreciate the folks on the Fox blogs that pointed this out to me. Next week I plan to get into the game as early as I can.

We have a new show coming up June 21st after "The Ten". More details to come soon. In the meantime, add us on myspace and search CHEV Radio on facebook and stay connected with us. Our myspace can be access at www.chevradioam.com.

Cheers!
