Hear Diane Werts talk Christmas television on "Talking Television with Dave White"

I was late for a visit to the TV Zone blog,
So to that site did I jog;

And the news I beheld set my heart beating fast--

Diane Werts on a cyber-broadcast.

I could scarcely contain my joy at the news;

To the Dave White archives did I hike;

I was eager to hear what the files contained,

And what Diane's voice sounded like.

I was glad that I went, for the show was much fun;

The host and his guests were a dream.

They were better by far than this stupid poem--

What the heck happened to the rhyme scheme?

--Somebody (er, not me), 2007


And to this link you should dash like a flash (but first check any local laws pertaining to flash-dashing): Talking Television with Dave White, where you'll find the 60-minute segment of Diane talking Christmas televsion. (Link is on the right.) Do what I did and right-click, "Save Target As," wait for the download, and you'll be talking Christmas television in no time.

Or you'll have a talking television in no time. Then you'll know it's time to call the shrink.

Get thee to the Talking Television archives. You'll be glad I did.

My brain, alas, is beyond thawing.

Hi, Lee! I don't post on blogger very often, but I'm going to be doing a radio show this weekend, thought you might possibly find it remotely enjoyable. More info here: http://themadblonde.blogspot.com/2007/12/wassail-wassail-all-over-radio.html

Thanks! -Karen

Thanks, Lee, for the plug.

But tell everybody I'm not just talking television -- I'm talking CHRISTMAS television!

Even I didn't know there was a "Wagon Train" Christmas episode (several!) till one of Dave White's listeners asked about it! (And I wrote the book: Christmas on Television, buy it at Amazon.com -- plug, plug.)

It's readers/listeners that keep us on our toes, isn't it? God bless 'em (every one) . . .

Merry, merry!
Diane

Diane,

Good point--CHRISTMAS television. I think I was focusing on the word play and forgot the crucial detail.

It's all a thing of, um... having the timing right, and... stuff.

I will add the clarifying word.

A Wagon Train Xmas episode? I wonder if Santa's sleigh broke down and he had to borrow a wagon and some horses? Probably not....

Themadblonde,

I'll try to catch that live, and, if not, will definitely listen to the archived show. Good luck. Break a log! I mean, leg.

Christmas humor, there.

Thanks, Lee! I'm a week behind on your amazing posts (& crazy to catch up before I'm gone again), but looking forward to reading them all.

Christmas is coming
The Mad Blonde's getting fat...

(well, fatter...)
