Not sure if I can catch it...

But I sure hope someone asks about whether there are any plans for any new projects? Glad to hear that Dr. Stan will be part of the program..

I looked at the stations website...and realize that Rolanda... is the same Rolanda that used to have a morning talk show (on tv).. It's been a few years.. But I'm pretty sure that's her..

Yep..just found the info within the site..

Surprised that this came up so suddenly if it's an actual audition.

I have been away from the board lately due to work, but, I didn't see another thread on the show Rhonda hosted.

Did anyone else hear it? I tuned in for most of it. I did run out to get lunch and must have missed Dr. Stan. Rats! I really wanted to catch him. Did anyone else?

Christie called in and brought up that she had a relapse of some sort. I'm not sure what she meant by that. Drugs, drinking, eating?? I wasn't clear on that.

I was quite surprised with Rhonda on that program. I want to share my impressions, but, would like others to speak out so I can gauge if I am off base or not.

In some ways I think she did quite well, but, in other ways I was kind of surprised. Speak out if you know what I am talking about so we can discuss details.

Debby,

Welcome back, missed you!...

No clue about the show though, I didn't catch the program. Don't be shy, share your opinions.. I wonder if there is a transcript somewhere. Sorry to hear that Christy might have had some sort of relapse.. I haven't checked her myspace in awhile.. Not that any of them had updated theirs recently. Hopefully Christy can regroup... and I hope it's only food related relapse.. It's easy to avoid the other ones to some degree... but you can't avoid food.. and it's even harder this time of year!

I didn't get to hear it myself so I'm curious to hear what you thought, Debby. It can be heard thru http://www.fearlessliving.org/, but I have dial-up & it's too slow for streaming. While there, you might want to read Rhonda's blog about her birthday. I found it interesting. It was written 5 days before doing the radio show. I was hoping that she had written a blog after that.

Happy Holidays to all!

I think I heard all but about one hour of the show. That one hour must have been when Dr. Stan was on. Oh well, maybe I'll get to hear him later.

Rhonda was very upbeat and very confident sounding. It was actually a little too much for me at times. I think she was trying to sound like she was so into the program that it went a little too overboard. As a viewer I would like to talk to someone a little more calm. Rhonda was calm and assertive on SO, I'm not sure what happened. I realize nobody is perfect, so I hope either she realizes the adjustment that need to be made or someone close to her tells her. I think she could do well with a show like that if she made those adjustments.

She came on to me as too much....too sensitive, too condescending, too perfect, too much know it all, too opinionated. just too much.

THe content of what she actually said was great. She had great ideas and really focused in the problems the callers had. She talked almost nonstop just by herself which is a hard thing to do. I used to host a local legal call in show and the show time was increased from 30 minutes to one hour. I had a co-host, but still... just sitting on live tv with only what comes to your mind to talk about is scarey. THe callers usually saved us by calling in and giving us some topics, but, then you hopefully know the answer.

So, I think she did a good job at keeping the show interesting and providing good information for such a long period. I think they cut the show a little short.

It will be interesting to see if Rhonda gets a position doing that kind of thing. I do wonder why Rhonda stays in Colorado when she doesn't have any friends there and seems to be kinda lonely except for the boyfriend.

I read her blog and didn't see it as insecure so to speak. I do find it odd that she doesn't have a good friend there yet. She seems to be happy with the boyfriend. I think his gift of dinner and friends over playing games is okay, but, just give me JEWELRY. LOL.
