Okay, I have Sirius playing commercials, and nothing on the 'net. I think Steve is supposed to be broadcasting today from somewhere in NY, Capital OTB?

Streaming is great until it doesn't work. I listen to a daily show out of Vegas, and sometimes a server at the station hangs up. It takes them 3 days to realize the streaming isn't working. I'm sure this means there won't be an archive for at least the first hour today.

Just as I post this, I hear Steve. He doesn't sound happy. Technical problems from Sirius.

Just checked - still have commercials on Sirius (I'll recheck 5:00pm) and nothing on the internet.

What a pain when you have guests scheduled!

Steve,

Nada!

I think I know the problem, you probably got too much sleep over the 4th and now cannot function as you're use to 3 hours a night.

Hope you get it worked out.

Default ATR Not To Be Heard Today.....



I just called the station and was told the earliest this will be fixed is tomorrow.

Look at it this way the show will be twice as good tomorrow with all the material and guests available.

My prayers with Steve Byk this has to be like picking winners on every race but you can't get your play down. The show is there but can't be heard...

Well.. where do I start?

#1) SIRIUS didn't think we had a show on today.. even though the schedule was laid out clearly..

#2) Wayne the Engineer decided to take a walkabout 15 minutes before airtime.. He won't be back. A net sum gain..

#3.) Despite brave efforts by Antilust.. er Antitrust.. to stand in, there was no way to link guests/callers to Sirius and me in the remote location..

We'll reboot it tomorrow with a new engineer..

My apologies.. Had Angel Penna, Eng, Haskin, Black and possibly Tagg and/or Violette on the docket..

No.. He walked out.. 15 minutes before the show was scheduled to start.. It was only one of the day's problems, but it added to the general travail.

On an amusing sidenote, Capital OTB will be streaming video of the show live on their website Friday and next Wednesday-Friday...

Those used to the wit, aplomb and overall sophistication of BTW and his 'Playing to Win' show, will be sorely disappointed by watching me shuffle papers, adjust settings and stammer for 3 hours.. And sadly, I have no goatee..
