TUNE IN!
On April 26th I hosted my first blog radio talk show. It was a lot of fun and many people listened live online sending in their questions to my guest Donna DeClemente via the chat room. If you were not able to listen live you can listen to the archived show here: LISTEN NOW.
Listen to my next show on Saturday May 10th at 4:00pm ET. My guest will be Craig McDaniel, aka Mr. Sweepy, and owner of Sweepstakes Today.
You can listen live online and to ask questions you just enter the show’s chat room. You can also dial-in, (646) 200-4857, to listen to the show and ask questions. If you want to ask a question but are not able to listen live, email it to me in advance and you can hear your question(s) answered in the archived show.

Contestor News
John "Fish" Fisher
John Fisher, known to most of us as Fish, passed away on Monday April 28th. If you didn’t know Fish, you may have known his better half, Carol McLaughlin. Carol is the owner of ANN-tics by Carol and This N’ That Sweepstakes Stuff newsletter along with being one of the lead co-ordinators of the Northeast Mini-Sweepstakes Convention. Fish was a mainstay at the mini-conventions managing all the audio-visual and providing the music for each event.
I am glad we attended the Michigan Wolverines Spring Meeting two weeks ago as it allowed us to spend time with Fish and Carol. Little did we know it would be the last time we would see him.
He will be missed.
