Well...maybe not that bad but I was nervous. I had just sat down behind the big microphone and the guy sitting across for me did not look to happy. In fact he seemed a little annoyed.
His name was Geoff and he was the producer for my new radio show "Dog Talk".
It was my first day on the radio. The station said they were going to give me some training before I went on the air, but it never happened.
As I sat there I started to get some negative thoughts.
"What if I sound like a complete bonehead?"
"What if nobody calls the show?"
"What if I have nothing to talk about?"
I looked across the room and asked Geoff a question. "What if nobody calls" I asked.
"Do you have some topics to talk about?" Geoff asked.
"Yeah, I have a list of things to talk about," and showed him my paper.
"Good" Geoff said, "just talk about that stuff."
"What if I go through the list and have nothing else to talk about?"
With a really annoyed look on his face Geoff said, "Go back to the top of your page of topics and start all over."
YIKES!
That was the extent of my training for the radio show. As it turns out me and Geoff became very good friends and always have a good laugh when we talk about our time at WSAR.
I had decided to do a radio show on dog training to promote my new book, "The Amazing Dog Training Man" and business at the time.
I relaxed and the show went fine.
Sitting here today in snowy Massachusetts I spent some time going through some old books and tapes that I have and I found some interviews that I did while on the radio and Im going to share them with you. The first interview was with a best selling author. It was a very interesting interview and should have it ready for you in a day or two so stay tuned...
All the best,
Eric
