Hear Jean Lorrah on radio!
Saturday, October 25, midnight Eastern, 11pm Central, 9pm Pacific Time, on the GCN network (one of the talk networks). If you have a Galaxy receiver, it will be on Galaxy Feed 1. If you do not have a GCN station in range or a Galaxy receiver, go to http://www.gcnlive.com and listen live on-line, choosing Galaxy 1. It's free of charge.
Finally, if you are out on Saturday night, or can't stay up that late, the program is archived at http://www.m2ktalk.net . Unfortunately, it appears that you'll have to wait a few months to hear the archive copy free of charge; they currently have May and June programs available free, but want a $19.95 subscription fee to access more recent archives.
If you are debating whether it's worth the bother to log on to listen because Jean might be doing only a two-minute promo, you should know that this is an hour-length program and Jean will be the only guest. It's a call-in show, so you can even call and ask a question at 866-215-4088.
