I'm doing a last minute show RIGHT NOW 7-8 PM EST on Saturday to fill in for a no-show DJ.

Tune in! Call in!

I need the help.

Seriously.

Tom.

This is great news for most of us, but I can't help but feel a little bad for Omar, with the extra work he's gonna have to do...

Ha ha!  So true.  I'll probably have to do a retroactive recap for the bonus hour.  Not sure if I can pull off 4 hours of mirth, music, and mayhem ...

Lubec Livin' with Sarahâ„¢ was my favorite segment.

That was certainly a treat. I hope you call in more often, Sarah!

My call went okay until I accidentally called Tom "buddy", a shameful breach of etiquette. He may not have noticed nor cared, but it distracted me for the rest of the call.
Listening to the show has brought the word "buddy" back into my vernacular, but I should probably stick to addressing Tom as "Tom","Sir", or barring that, "Hoss".

It was ever so grand getting an extra dose of TBS last night.  I'm sure it was something of a pain having to step in to save the day, Mr. Scharpling, but that you had to brightened my Saturday no end.  On behalf of Lubec, I thank you.

Saturday Night Mini Best Show was akin to seeing your favorite band do an impromptu set that you hear about at the last minute.

Last year, The Best Show started podcasting. Now it's started guerilla gigging!

it isn't working for me.

I get some talking from someone who is not tom then 2 minutes of music. Am I alone in this or no?

You are not.

later

It's up!  And I listened to my call without dying of embarrassment, even though I stuttered dreadfully all through it.  Eight whole minutes (yup, I'm pathetic enough to have timed it), and Tom was unfailingly kind to me.  Yet more evidence that the Kid is a prince among queens.

Sarah,

I have to disagree.  I'm a fairly harsh judge (especially of me) in these situations, but listening to your call I thought you did very well.  Congratulations!

Just FYI,

The "mini" Best Show will be included in the podcast feed when it comes back up. Word from the home office says that may be as early as Friday.
