Wednesday Is The New Friday

Looks like the boys from BTN decided to extend their "day off." The truth is Dan and Eric are taking part in a very important tutorial about CHEV's website. BTN will return on Tuesday.

Meanwhile, The Gonzo Report, The Complainers and Suburban Base will broadcast at their usual times today.

Have a great long weekend!

Author of "SWAP" on BTN

Today Dan had a special guest on "Bring The Noise" this morning. Sam Moffie, author of SWAP, came on the program to talk about the book (www.samsstories.com). The novel is based loosely on the story of two baseball players who swapped wives back in the 1970's. These days people get away with a lot of things and that would seem rather odd in this day in age. So just imagine what people were thinking back in the 1970's! Hopefully Sam's book someday turns into a film - only because Dan asked to be in it. Keep dreaming kid. Check the podcast site for the interview.

We're getting to the middle of the week which means we look forward to The Gonzo Report with B.H. Ramsay with his guest Cheryl from Britgirl Productions (www.myspace.com/britgirlproductions) on Wednesday at Noon EST. Gonzo will also be on Friday at Noon with The Complainers checking in at 1PM. Matt Chin, Ricky Thompson, Brown Guy and the quiet girl will be back this Thurday at 9PM with more of "My Radio Show". We will concede that this is the funniest and creative show on CHEV Radio and they effectively make male genitals seem interesting. And Suburban Bass is back in the house with more house, electronic underground and more Friday night at 9PM. They use vinyl which makes them very special. Serious!

Then tune in at 8PM on Sunday with The Skinny B Show. Don't want to jinx this but this week may be the week they have a Hollywood producer checking in on the program. We'll keep you posted. They do, however, have a very high-profile listener to their show named Don Imus. The name is Don Imus, the e-mail address has Don Imus, so we're led to believe that this is really Don Imus. Besides, if you make up an e-mail address with someone else's name then you are a total loser.

Make sure you lock in to hear all those shows and more at: www.chevradioam.com.

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.

Gonzo Report On Break

The Gonzo Report will not air today or next week. Host B.H. Ramsay is having minor surgery and will be out of commission until the middle of the month.

All of us here at CHEV wish B.H. a speedy recovery.

If you would like to contact B.H., feel free to send him an e-mail to info@chevradioam.com. We'll forward it on to him.

BTW, if the Waxers lose tonight's game five match against St. Mike's (I doubt it since they're leading the series 3-1), then we will air Game Six tomorrow night.

- Eric
