[Ronald Epstein]

Hello everyone!

As many of you may now be aware, Sirius invited
me to their headquarters last Wednesday to meet with
their management team.

They were kind enough to let me fulfill a life-long
dream of mine -- they allowed me to host my own
3-hour show. I picked the entire playlist and was
very fortunate to have veteran stream jockey Elise
Brown (The Pulse) by my side handling the programming.

The segment is called SUBSCRIBER TAKEOVER and
it will be playing at 9pm ET Saturday, January 17. It
is scheduled to be repeated at 7am ET on Sunday,
January 18.

Now, I have two favors to ask of you guys....

First, listen! Do whatever it takes to be in front
of your Sirius tuner on Saturday or Sunday. I really
think you will enjoy the show that I put together
for all of you.

More importantly....

I want to do more of these shows for Sirius.
Getting into radio broadcasting has been a dream
of mine since I was a kid.

It's easy for me to think I'm comfortable enough
to do these kind of shows on a regular basis, but
the REAL test is what you, the listener think of
my show.

If you guys think my show and delivery sucks, I
want to know. However, if you guys feel that I have
the potential to be a Sirius stream jockey, I want
you to let Sirius radio know.

There is no job being offered to me. I'm a regular
guy like all of you hoping that audiance feedback
will be favorable enough to get that once-in-a-lifetime lucky break.

I ask for no favors here other than you listen and
let Sirius and I know what you think of the
show and my delivery.

I wish to thank all of you in advance.

Cool Ron! Will I be able to listen to it online, or do I need to be a subscriber? Congratulations again.

[Dave Bennett]

Hey Cool. I'm not a sirius subscriber, but I'll have to check out the live internet stream while you're on.

[Ronald Epstein]

While Sirius offers LIVE streaming through
the computer of their channels to subscribers, I am
not quite sure if people who are NOT subscribers will
hear current programming or sample feeds.

Perhaps other Sirius subscribers would know
the answer.

Congrats Ron!

[David-S]

You'll be able to hear the current streams live, although if you're not a subscriber, you'll have to switch streams for a few seconds every 20 minutes, or you'll get cut off

Ron will be on "Totally 70's", in the "Pop" section

[MatS]

so what you're telling me is The Ron Epstein show is now an exclusive to Sirius??!!

well if they didn't get me to switch with the announcement of NHL I don't see how this will get me to change

[Joshua Clinard]

Wow. That is quite a change from your first article which was quite critical of Sirius. I think you did an excellent job on this article Ron, as you did with the first, even though it was higly critical. I am glad you got to experience your lifelong dream, and that you got to bring our converns to Sirius' attention. Hopefully your show will get some very positive reviews and you will be able to do a weekly show on Totally '70's. I can't wait to hear your show tomorow night.

[Parker Clack]

Way cool! You started off with Elvis!

So far, so good.
