Tune in for the LAST "Guy James Show" tomorrow..... (OR....)

[nostamj]

yup.

sadly, tomorrow could be the end.

it doesn't HAVE to be the end. but, it may well be.

fans of Guy have known from the beginning that, until he can 'break' into a national slot, this show was listener driven and listener supported.

while many have supported, it just isn't enough.

the GJS has thousands and thousands of listeners on the internet... we only NEED 200 of them willing to contribute $1.25 per show... $5 for month of Guy James... 12 HOURS @ less than $.50 an hour.

DU has a HUGE interest in keeping this show alive.

Guy (BeachBuckeye) and Michael (JanMichael) are family here.

They have provided an international platform for DOZENS of evil informed, passionate DUers in every broadcast.

They have booked an extraordinaty roster of guests from WillPitt to BevHarris to Nancy Skinner to AWD and on and on and on...

And, what will life be without a weekly dose of 'republican love' ???

I just got off the phone with Guy. Things are SO close but... without another month or so of LISTENER SUPPORTED broadcasts... he simply can't sustain the show.

I'm sending $200 tonight. ( www.theguyjamesshow.com )

If we get another $200 by showtime (3PM Eastern)... I will double that. (at least)

200 people with $5 can make the difference. or, next saturday @ 3PM it could be a cooking show....

if you do nothing else, at least catch the show tomorrow! it could be your last chance... and THAT is a DAMN SHAME...

[Cha]

1. I can't believe this! Nobody wants to hear my sad story but

[nostamj]

2. BELIEVE it!

and $5 will make the difference. thanks!

[blm]

[alcuno]

3. Here's $200.

[alcuno]

[nostamj]

4. DU, if this thread dies in a damn RUSH FLUSH

I will be SO disappointed.

[AnnabelLee]

6. I contribute every month

But I'll send another check. It won't be much, I'm afraid, but if everyone gives something, we'll keep this show on the air. Guy's (& JanMichael's) voice is too important to lose now!:bounce:

[Fatima]

7. He's been getting 10 a month from me for months

and I love the archived shows...c'mon folks, cough up buck or two.

That reminds me, tis time to donate to DU again.

[nostamj]

9. to you and AnnabelLee....

obviously, the monthly pledges will be moot (and I'm on that list too) if the show ends tomorrow.

thanks! keep it kicked.

$5 for another month of Guy......... ???

[Salviati]

8. another $5 from me...

not a lot to give, but it's well worth it...

[eleny]

10. Sent 25 and will contribute as I can

Thanks for the heads up!

[Cha]

11. Well, mine is coming by "snail mail" cause "paypal" won't

take my money b/c I have a new card with a new expiration date and I can't get it to kick in right. Oh well..

[nostamj]

13. don't worry about it............

we've already raised $635 in less than 30 minutes.

as long as people KNOW that their $5 will make the difference, we'll make the difference

and, if you don't have the $5, you have a :kick: don't you ???

[Cha]

17. Always a Kick for you, baby!

:kick: But..I've already got the address on Trade WAy and I'll be sending it for momentum! :D

[liberalnurse]

23. I can't get paypal to work either.....

I hope we can send it regular mail. Monday I can send it "overnight" if need be....

Let me know....Like I said, $200.00.

[jiacinto]

12. I have been donating $10 a month

But I can't do anymore as I am out of work right now and just don't have the money.

[Vadem]

14. Just signed up for $10. a month through PayPal

I love the Guy James Show and would hate to see it go the way of all the other liberal shows. Sign up, folks!

I tried to send a one-time payment of more money but it would'nt take it so I signed up for the monthly $10.

[jab105]

15. I'm at $10/month for a while now...

and I got no job, but $10/month, we CAN do that, I encourage anyone else to, time to put the money where the typed words are:)...

wish I could do more...

[salin]

16. contribution via paypal

just made. Keep it going Guy (and Michael)!

[hedda_foil]

19. I contribute every month but I'll kick in $10 more

Paypal here I come.

[nostamj]

20. to all current GJS subscribers..............

bottom line: your montly obligation could be over very very soon.

an extra $5 NOW will make the difference.

kick this! we're moving quickly towards funding the rest of October. wanna hear a guest with the initials "JD" ???

a 15-year veteran of the CIA is the guest tomorrow.... maybe a guest with the initials "JW" soon.........???

but.........

the 'fat lady' is clearing her throat.

[AnnabelLee]

21. Kick

[liberalnurse]

22. I'll send of $200 tomorrow.

Is mail okay? Please someone let me know....

I'm at work right now....

[nostamj]

25. of COURSE snailmail is OK

will let Guy and his webmaster know about the PayPal problems tomorrow.

your $200 pushes this near a grand in an hour.

obviously, we going to keep this going another month.

and, please, hundreds of $5 are just as important as those than can do more.

THANKS TO ALL WHO ARE RESPONDING!

[alcuno]

31. You're welcome.

My last bump for the night.

[JanMichael]

37. You've always been a great supporter.

You're an anchor for us all.

I'm sorry that our corporate system is the way it is...It makes me furious that it's come to this...

we're really close to a $1000 already

thanks to all and PLEASE keep this kicked.

I really need to crash out soon!

32. This is personal for me.

Guy is one of the nicest bastards that I've ever met, period.

He has spent tens of thousnads of dollars to get a REAL Lefty radio show going...

I was just a caller that had some passion, he accepted me as more than a fan, he made me a part of his gigantic effort.

He, and his incredibly nice wife, are like family to me now. They're simply THAT good.

This situation makes me physically ill. I'm not rich. every show means 8 hours for me, four driving and three on the air, and at least 240 miles on my 94 Nissan truck. That;s about $17 a show. I have so many nice things to say for the regular donors but I'm not so happy with the 20.000 other ONLINE listers that tune in every Saturday...Yet...I know they care about the great show that Guy puts out for them...

It either lives or dies with us.

Your choice.

[nostamj]

33. Michael.....

I'm SURE we've got this backed up for the next month at least.

we will RAGE RAGE AGAINST THE DYING OF THE LIGHT

200 listeners @ $5 each....


no WAY that's impossible.

[JanMichael]

34. Thank you and the rest of the people that care.

This isn't a small-time endevour and I'm glad that some recognise that.

I have a feeling that the next few shows will grow in their dismay of the status quo.

[Code_Name_D]

35. I didn't think he could do it the first time.

But Guy James proved me wrong by staying on the air this long. Best tasting crow I have ever eaten. And I think its time for another helping. But this time, he ain't doing it without me.
$200.00 in the snail mail.

[JanMichael]

36. Code Name: KICKIN' ASS!

Rock on brother!<insert head bangin' anarchist here>

[salin]

39. If I recall... gutsy Guy

talked his way onto the air - on a station playing mostly conservative talk, in a very conservative area. He pitched it, if I recall, by paying its way - which is why funding is so important.

Imagine the guts and savvy it took to talk the way onto the air in a conservative market. It was not a case of pitching an idea to which the manager would immediately say: that is a natural.

But along with doing in this way - requires self-funding the show.

If I recall correctly, Guy and a friend, who initially paid for it all, took on the additional expense (from their own pocket books and some contributions) - to pay themselves to get the show broadcast on the internet. That Vision required the blind faith that when we (on line listeners) could hear that some money could be raised from those new listeners.

That story is inspirational to me. Guy has made a huge financial commitment. Michael has made a huge time commitment (and financial - at a minimum when considering the cost and time of traveling to help with the show.

What Guy has done, is not about filling a void. It is about fighting against the odds, taking a huge faith walk that some money would come in to offset the costs... and just making it happen.

Kudos to Guy. I am glad to help in any small way that I can!

[JanMichael]

41. ThanK YOU! You nailed it.

This is the straight shit: While Guy has paid for his time he had to BEG to do that!

So what we have is consrvative owners holding their noses to the bank!

What's REALLY sick is that his show may be the most listened to show on the channel!

[salin]

65. This is why we need to keep it there

as long as possible. Sooner or later that "most listened to show on the channel" status will sink in to the PTB.

[nostamj]

46. guy is REAL

that's the bottom line.

i've had the pleasure to chat with Guy about barbershop harmony and 'stop loss' atrocities and NYC cabaret and Limbaugh hypocrisies and and and...

$5 for a month, 12 HOURS of democratic radio.

do the math. and if you can't contribute...... KICK Bush* threatens ALL of our jobs

[nostamj]

40. !!!!!! thank you CND!

with this kind of pace, we're investing in at least another month!

[Code_Name_D]

42. It just acured to me.

Roomer has it that a slot just opened up on the networks. :P. Something about a blow hard facing drug charges.

[Code_Name_D]

And last but not least.

Eleven: Make donations to the Guy James Show!

Crazy cool that is!

[Darth_Kitten]

84. Way to go, Code!!!

Great post. :)

[Andy_Stephenson]

38. nostamj I don't have much

but I sent in $10

[Ivory_Tower]

43. Another $86.43

I'll try to send more if I can.

Jeez, I hope this helps -- it's sad that the support is this tenuous.

My Saturdays have been busy recently so I've been able to catch a few minutes here and there, but this show can't be allowed to die from starvation.

[JanMichael]

44. My LAST kick

:kick:

Look...This is about the GRASSROOTS of rebellion dammit!

Guy is a gem, I'm the little devil on his shoulder going "Revolution! Coopertive Commonweath! Fuck civility!", he's the the fucking voice of reason!

If Guy fails then the bushites gain full control, and I'll be the norm for dissent!


YOU DON'T HAVE THE SELF CONFIDENCE FOR ME YET!!!!!!!!

[OneTwentyoNine]

60. Heh he....go get some sleep,things will be different when you wake

DU'ers won't let Guy down. The money will be there,we always come through.

[AWD]

45. People HAVE to keep this show going....

....Guy has a few bucks coming from me soon, and I know we all can spare a few.

Without shows like Guy James and Mike Malloy, our voices cannot be heard in the Corporate Media. If you haven't seen the need to chip in a few, then let me make another plea to all of you.

As excited as I am about running for Congress, my level of excitement was multiplied ten-fold when I got to be interviewed on Guy's show. That show is so invigorating, I will have to hunt you all down for not donating if it goes off the air.

Besides, for the next 30 days, Guy will be heard on-air 4 days more than Rush. Sounds good to me!

[JanMichael]

47. I was nice too dammit!

Actually I didn't know enough about your situation to help much but either wat it was FUN!

[soup]

48. Vote NO on tomorrow being Guy's last show!

Just sent $20.00 via PayPal-
Can't afford it, but can't afford not to.

:kick:

[JohnKleeb]

50. I am sorry Guy and Michael

:cry: I should donate, maybe call, I dunno. I wish I had done more. Oh yeah I cant listen tommorow because my sound aint back yet. Sigh I wish I had done more. :cry:

[Andy_Stephenson]

51. DU Come on Save Guy James!

He is a great liberal voice we cannot afford to loose!

[Melinda]

52. The *least* anyone can do is keep this thread kicked!

Keeping it where all DUers have a chance to see it is as good as cash kids! Keep it :kick: 'd !!

[Kool Kitty]

54. Kick.

For the good of all. :kick:

59. Sent $30.00 and "I have a dream"......

I have a dream.... where Guy,Mike Malloy,Randi are on radio all across America,five days a week and not just on the Internet.

I can't always catch Guy's show on Saturday but the ones I have listend to are fantastic and he absolutly has to stay on the air. His looks and speech are nearly identical to a uncle of mine who passed on several years back.

Kick some butt Guy!!!

David

[LWolf]

61. I'll give it a kick.

Can't do more than my regular donation this month. It's only the 11th, I don't get paid til Nov 1st, and the account is nearly empty. Groceries and gas...that's all that's left. If I'm careful.

But I will say to those who haven't listened or haven't given; do it!

[DancingBear]

62. The check is in the mail

Really.

Due to living out in the country and having a dial up connection I can't hear more than15-20 seconds of Guy's show without it breakng up. Soooooo, if I can contribute without ever hearing the damn thing....

Support our drug free host!!! (at least now, anyway :) )

Go Bucks!!

[nostamj]

64. DancingBear...........

have your tried listening to the archived shows?? they are usually up in about 24 hours. NOT as cool as 'live' but...

[revcarol]

63. Will you take it in quarters?

Snail mail comin' at ya.

[yankeeinlouisiana]

66. Ok, here's my $10 bucks!

Went the monthly route. Sorry can't do more at this time. I'm looking for a job right now and hopefully will find one soon. Then I can catch up on all my charitable contributins.

Hey! Did we reach the total needed?

[nostamj]

67. we're doing great!

and the day is young. over $1000 has been pledged with over $700 of that already paid via the PayPal link as of this morning.

and there's the international internet audience to reach during the show today.

had a great note from Guy this morning. all the new donations to the PayPal account has really started his day off with a bang!

I let him know there's more on the way via snail mail

thanks to all for the help and the kicks

note: other than being a regular caller and phone-friend of Guy's, I have no official affiliation with the show.
