I’ve got some great news about me and GidiLounge. And I hope you’ll find this as exciting as I do, too. As you know, I have collaborated with other websites, groups, and businesses in the past. Some of them are Moments With Mo (talk show in Nigeria), Nigeria Entertainment Awards, NotJustOk (still very active), and many more. And now, I’m partnering with GidiLounge. Continue to find out more.
It’s the show. My show. Come Saturday, April 7th, it will find a new home on GidiLounge. This is a partnership that is almost a year in the making, and finally, there’s a date and time. The bad news is that you will have to edit most of the show information that you may have saved on your phone and/or browser. The good news is that editing is a fly on a wall.
My show is undergoing some changes. It was formerly called Verastically Speakin,’ but will now be called The Verastic Show. This, too, is an idea I have been toying with for a while. There are two reasons why I’m changing the name of the show: (1) The Verastic Show is easier to say and remember, and (2) Hardly anyone calls it Verastically Speakin’ anyway. Most people still call it The Verastic Show. Oh, there’s a number 3. I would like the celebrities who are kind enough to give me soundbites for my show to not bite their tongues any further in the process of saying Verastically Speakin.’
It will be the same great show we have all enjoyed for the past two years. Except it’ll be bigger and … yeah, much bigger. But it’ll never be the same without you, so I hope you tune in. I am very excited about the possibility. Below are a list of things that may either change a little or not change at all. Or maybe they are totally new features for your convenience.
1. Where to listen: GidiLounge.fm
2. Time: 12:00 noon to 2:00 PM (5:00 PM to 7:00 PM).
3. Number to call: 1.866.566.4434
4. Skype Calls: You may also call in via Skype. Add GidiLounge on Skype. You may add me (Verastic), but you won’t be able to call in via Verastic.
5. Chat room: We will not lose our beloved chat room; it will actually get better. GidiLounge’s chat room is run by Tiny Chat, and you can sign in with your Facebook, Twitter, or Tumblr account. Or as a guest. You can even use your webcam. It’ll be as if we’re all Skyping at once. Fun!
6. Apps: Apart from listening on your computer, you can also listen via FREE GidiLounge mobile apps for your iPad, iPhone, Android, and Blackberry. Neat, huh? Visit their app page to download your app(s).
7. E-mail address: The show’s e-mail address remains the same: radio at verastic dot com
More information will be coming. Follow me on Twitter for more updates, too. In the meantime, mark your calendars. I’m already lining shows up, and they are going to be crazy!!! Prepare to laugh. And cry. And learn.
So, are you happy with this change?
