Bargain Talk with Briana has a new time slot – 10pm EST on Wednesdays. Even though, I’m a late nighter, even 11pm was a little late for me! After the show, I was so keyed up, I’m not sure what time I went to bed. Even later than normal is all I know.

Last week’s debut show went well. I was a little nervous.  Are we suppose to admit things like that? However, my loyal listeners/readers were very supportive and I truly appreciate their encouragement. I’m sure as time goes on I will learn what does and does not work for me! Like trying to use chat while doing a radio show solo does not work for me.

If you missed last week’s show, you can still listen to the archived show. As well as get links to all the great sites I mentioned during the show. Bloggers who used chat during the show were also given some link love!

The Skinny On™ is the brainchild of best selling author, investor, attorney and entrepreneur Jim Randel. Realizing that the traditional book publishing business model was outdated, Randel sought to create a new breed of books, aimed at disseminating information to an audience increasingly used to consuming content on the internet and cell phones. Their quick-read, story format, and short lead publishing cycles allow the series to provide The Skinny On™ current events and topical subjects while keeping readers informed and entertained.
