So…how are we kickin’ off our first show at L.A. Talk Radio?

The London Garcia Show  moves to L.A. Talk Radio!

********** STARTING OCTOBER 25TH **********

L.A. Talk Radio, a BBS Radio Network affiliate, is one of the most visible (radio……visible……yes, ironic) talk radio stations in the world.  Out of 26+ million results that appear in talk radio searches on Google, L.A. Talk Radio is just about at the top of the list, coming in usually at #6 or #7 and ALWAYS on the first page. WOW!

What’s next?  HA!  Just keep paying attention.  Expect ALOT!  (It’s OK…I can take it.)  We’re keepin’ it comin!

Saturdays @ 5:00pm (Pacific Standard Time)

One of my MUSIC BOXX artists, Sahra Indio (located in Honolulu, Hawaii) just won the award for “Best Female Artist” for the 2008 AMMA Awards.  Check her out on MUSIC BOXX in the MISC category (she is a reggae artist).

Once again, CONGRATULATIONS Sahra Indio!

CASTING CALL FOR CO-HOSTS

“The London Garcia Show” is seeking a whole sweatshop of co-hosts!  If you or someone you know is interested in co-hosting on “The London Garcia Show”, first ask yourself:

1. Are you actually  funny (or is just 2 people that tell you that……and they keep saying it hoping that you will free them from the basement where you’ve held them)?
2. Are you great at improv (or do you give DEAD AIR new meaning)?
3. Is your voice pleasant to listen to (or do you suddenly invoke violent behavior from meditating monks, world peace activists, and Jesus for simply saying, “Hi there.”)?
4. Are you INTERESTING (or are you the person whose invitation to parties always gets lost in the mail)?

Keep it real people!

If you are interested in co-hosting on “The London Garcia Show”, please email the following to hollaback@londongarcia.com:

• Any MySpace or website links that showcase your “skills” (this can be video or audio)
• Video or audio files that showcase your “skills”
• Get creative…create an interesting radio name for yourself.

You do NOT need to be someone who is in the entertainment industry.  You just need to have ‘that thing’.  So give it a shot.  You might co-host one show or you might co-host many shows.  So give it your best shot!  “The London Garcia Show” will become a daily show in the future and we’re looking to keep the zoo stocked with plenty of animals.

Coming up on “The London Garcia Show” this Sunday (10/5 @ 5:00pm - Pacific Standard Time):

Ignacio “Nacho” Serricchio, of Ghost Whisperer and General Hospital, and MORE IMPORTANTLY stand-up comic, is bustin’ right through that police tape and taking over the co-host seat!  (Hey, I gotta give props to my fellow comics out there!)

What a fantastic show!  We have 2 amazing guests who make a wonderful impact in their communities and among many people.  First, Wilson Simmons III, has been making a difference in our country for a long time, including serving in the Vietnam war, has kept company with Muhammad Ali as well as other legends, and lives such an extraordinary life everyday now.  I haven’t met him in person yet but I get the sense of such greatness.  In fact, he was scheduled to come on the show later but is about to leave for Brazil to do more incredible work.  So we were fortunate to be able to have him on the show before he leaves.  Next, we have WOOD THE BEGINNING - singer, rapper, writer, and mesmerizes a crowd with each performance.  Although he’s an artist that is newer on the scene, he’s here to stay.

First…

WILSON SIMMONS III 

Wilson has spent a highly successful career as a sales, marketing and management professional for a number of Fortune 500 companies for over 25 years. Wilson’s greatest expertise lies in motivating a crowd from middles schools to major corporations. His accomplishments include: National Marketing Manager for the United Negro College Fund in New York, Top Sales Manager for Levi Strauss & Company and manager for Hallmark Cards, Inc.  Mr. Simmons is the author of two books: Inside Corporate America - A Guide for African Americans and A Diverse Guide for a Diverse Workplace. Inside Corporate America sold over 100,000 copies in the United States. The book was available in bookstores nationwide and was published by the Putnam Publishing Group.

Simmons’ inspiration to write his first book came from and elderly black man who picked him out of a crowd on a bus, in Philadelphia, and replied: “Young man, you make me real proud. You are what we work so hard for.” These powerful words changed Wilson’s focus to fulfill the pledge he made with other brothers and sisters in the 60’s to take the words of what we have learned to the streets and share it.

A native of Los Angeles, California, Wilson is a graduate of California State University Los Angeles.  Wilson speaks to audiences about adapting to change in today’s working environment that is now more diverse than ever. He believes that inspiration is what unlocks the heart to unleash the dreams. He has been the keynote speaker for companies like Southern California Edison and Raytheon.

At present, he’s writing his third book: “How to Care for Parents and Loved Ones in the 21st Century”.  He spends a lot of my time speaking to inner city youth.  And as he shared with me, “I believe that is part of my mission to share and give back.”

WOOD THE BEGINNING

Wood’s music reflects the journey of men, women, and children.  And like common people, he understands the deepest part of our own existence is through music.  His music serves as a mirror of what we want and do not want to see.  Through his music, we are able to see beauty, rage, greed, compassion, hatred, recklessness and success in this world.  No matter what genre you listen to, Wood’s music inspires us in some way.  With a “no color lines, no boundaries” persona, Wood’s music has a magic that reaches in and touches people from many walks of life.
