Wanna be a game show contestant? You won't win a million dollars but then again, you'll be able to do it via telephone from the comfort of your own home. Shokus Internet Radio, which we plug the heck outta on this site, has an audio game show called Anyone Can Play, hosted by Larry Anderson, who hosted The Big Spin, the revival of Truth or Consequences and other shows. Anyone Can Play needs contestants for some upcoming tape dates. You need to be good at trivia and it might help if you listened to the show, which you can do Monday through Saturday at 3 PM Pacific Time.
It's sponsored by Endless Games, makers of great board and DVD games like The Price is Right, Password and The Match Game and you'll never guess what the prizes are. That's right: Great board and DVD games like The Price is Right, Password and The Match Game. You can read the rules and apply over on this page. And you can listen to Shokus Internet Radio by going to this page and selecting an audio browser. Don't miss out on this golden opportunity. Remember…this is how Vanna White got started. Sort of.
Also, that last link will come in handy if you want to listen to any of the fine programming on Shokus. All this week from 10 PM to Midnight (Pacific) they're rerunning the most recent episode of Stu's Show that featured Yours Truly and my fellow animation writer/historian, Earl Kress…with a special guest appearance by Batfink. There are also shows there worth your attention that don't have me on them. The TV Soundtrack Show, which is on at 2 PM Pacific on most days, should be of special interest to the kind of person who'd come to this site. Your affable host Stuart Shostak digs up some wonderfully obscure gems to share with his listeners…stuff that never made it to those "TV Themes" CDs that we all own. End of plug.
