Announcing an EPIC contest! On November 2, 2011, someone will be hosting my Hay House Radio show Out From the Inside. Question is, who will it be?

I love this community. The input and participation of each and every one of you makes hosting my radio show an exercise in gratitude . It also makes it a helluva lot of fun. Your support and willingness to tune in each week has been critical to creating a show that is’t available anywhere else on the planet. It’s OUR show and we are doing something amazing together. We’re changing the conversation from what we want to who we want to be.

I am in the process of writing the episode guides for November and I’ve decided to do something a little bit out of the box. Let’s call it out from the inside of the box. After talking to so many of you, I know that there are loads of folks who would make great radio hosts. So…. Let’s give someone a shot! Announcing the UBMe Contest! You don’t have to cut your hair and bleach it, you don’t have to learn a fake Texas drawl, all you need is a desire to host a radio program and a little bit of luck.

The winner of the contest will have the opportunity to host my show and interview a special guest, uh….. ME!

Here are the rules: You must be available on Wednesday November 2nd at 9am Pacific, 10am Mountain, 11am Central and Noon Pacific. International listeners, please do the math on your particular time zone.   The other rule is that you must be willing to ask your own interview questions as well as questions submitted by the Facebook community. That’s it!

Now comes the question of how to judge the contest. I sort of pulled the trigger on the contest idea before I had the whole thing worked out. That’s where you come in. My first inclination is to say “convince me”, but that probably doesn’t have quite enough structure because I know that lots of you are pretty convincing. Perhaps we should start with a conversation about how to judge the winner. We could do a random drawing, but that doesn’t seem like much fun. We could ask people to write a post about why they want to host and have the community vote on it, there are all sorts of ways to do it. I’d like your input.
The only thing that matters to me is that we figure out a way to give bonus points or additional entries to people who I’ve actually spoken to before. After all, I’m giving you free reign to ask away, and there is something comforting about knowing a bit about you too. Therefore, calling the show between now and the time the winner is announced on October 26th show will definitely help your cause. Hint, hint….

So how do we do this? Step one is to send an email to radio@karenmccrocklin.com letting me know you are interested. As for the rest of it, let’s discuss. Let’s talk amongst ourselves, let’s chew on it. Or whatever. You can use the comments section on Facebook to register your opinion. The comments section is closed on the website because I was getting too many Viagra offers..

Fire away! We’ll figure out the rules by next Wednesday and you’ll have a couple of weeks to enter.

UBMe? Yay!
