Hello to all of your wonderful folks out here under the SUN!

So this morning I got an e-mail from Joel Welsh, our outstanding Chief Community Officer here at SUN inviting me to "appear" on Thursday`s podcast! Needless to say I am totally JAZZED!

So I pick up the phone and start calling everyone I know starting with my sister, Lori. Now she is well versed in the art of sarcasm and her first response is "A podcast! Oh my gosh! What are you going to wear?" After spending a brief moment of DUH actually contemplating this dilemma, we proceeded to do the "over-the-phone happy dance”. (She prefers the “cabbage patch”, I am a more of a “running man” girl myself)

After some calls to announce my exciting news, and when necessary, issue threats to withhold my famous spinach artichoke dip should they not listen to the podcast, I realized that I should turn my focus toward what I am actually going to say to all of you fine people out here!

Now I hope you’ll all tune-in to hear some answers to those burning questions in your mind:

What are GreenBeans? How do they work? How can the help your business grow? What is the answer to the GRY riddle posted in our SUN book club ?

…And what did I wear?

I am a ball of nervous excitement here and I am calling on you, the SUN community to chime in with your advice, wisdom and suggestions. 

For those lucky ducks who has participated in a podcast before, it would be marvelous if you will share your experiences here!

I can’t wait to read your comments and I will be sure to post an update after the show!

The floor is all yours…

Congrats, BeautyP! 

Joel makes it very easy.   I know you will do a fantastic job!

My only tip~ don`t wear white

 

 

Whatever you wear make sure you accessorize with a huge smile!

Daniel the Denim Doctor

I`ll be wearing blue jeans & a maroon & yellow & white striped dress shirt with super-comfortable leather Pikolinos shoes that have 2 stitches on either side of the laces so that it looks like a muted baseball, or something that Joe Jackson would`ve worn in 1919 with the Chicago Black Sox.

Just want to make certain that we don`t clash.

Oh, and my StartupNation hat. (of course)

Ask how can I get one of those caps. Are they recyclable? ;-)

Thanks so much Mitey & ujeans for the helpful tips!

Joel, I will certainly take your wardrobe colors into consideration...do you lay out your clothes at the beginning of each week?

Elids, I`ll see what I can do about the cap...hmm.recyclable? have to look into that.....we would need to ensure proper sterilization....unless we could secure a written guarantee that the previous owner showered at least twice a day but even then....

How exciting Petunia! We`re happy to share your good news and enthusiasm. It`s been a while since I`ve done a radio broadcast (pre-podcast era), but you might want to bring one of those atomizer sprayers for your throat (I think I`ve seen that in a Bugs Bunny episode somewhere).

I heard that Joel only has two shirt sections in his closet - one has nothing but maroon & yellow & white striped dress shirts, and the other section has about a dozen yellow golf shirts. Kinda like Clark Kent and Superman. And legend has it that if he tries to tip his visor, as a greeting, his head lifts off with the hat. Maybe you can try to confirm or dispell that rumor.

And will we finally learn the mystery of your name ... and find out if Petunia is your middle name or your last name?

Wardrobe: check. hair and make-up: My teams on working on it.

Now, what to talk talk about now that Daniel`s gone and solved the GRY riddle...

Well, I do a little ballet, a bit of tap...now where did I put my top hat....

 

Phew, all that build up for ten minutes...gosh that went fast! At least my mascara didn`t have time to run!

Thanks a million to you Joel for having me on the show, it was a lot of fun! I hope we can do it again sometime!

Denise, I am so sorry but in my nervous excitement, I forgot to look under the cap to see what is REALLY going on!

Well I am off to stare at the computer screen until the podcast comes up!

Hope you`ll listen..and please remeber to laugh WITH me, not AT me.
