The last time you heard from me we were excitedly preparing for the big announcement for our 2 year anniversary on August 14th. That announcement was the National Syndication of our show. As many of you know, one of my producers, and friend of 25 years, Joe Procario passed away unexpectedly on August 1st. At that point everything was put on hold while we tried to figure out how to move ahead and what shape the show was going to take on moving forward. I spent most of August rethinking the entire launch of the National Syndication, the Web Site, and news portal. Knowing that Joe would not have wanted anything to stop on his account some moves were made and troops called in to help with the work that needed to be completed just to get things ready. I want to thank my long time friend Joe Lagani (NYC Indie producer) for coming to the aid of the show and helping me get the wheels back on. Ashanti Alexander is our new News Director and host of the "My Buddy Butch Extra" on Thursday's at 7pm our old show time slot. We have a new National Sales Director. Skip Joeckel our Director of Affiliate Relations made sure everyone in the pipeline knew what was going on and kept the engine running! The understanding, support, and encouragement from fans, everyone at ABC/Citadel, and all of the companies and individuals associated with the show has helped me keep moving forward. So now here we are with many new things to share with you on our weekly show every Saturday, knowing that Joe would have wanted it this way.
