Short Stack: Turn On, Tune In, Drop In

"Tampa Bay's Media Talk" (no relation to TBM, except cosmically) bills itself as “a weekly entertainment and educational radio program dedicated to serving the needs of the Tampa Bay area's creative community.” The one-hour show airs “live” Thursdays 6 p.m. on WTAN 1340, 1350 and WZHR 1400.

For those with a high-speed Internet connection, the show can be viewed in real time at http://www.tampabaymediatalk.com/live.php via “streaming video.” Show hosts are Janet Sherer and Michael Piotrowski. Call-in’s are welcome at 1-866-826-1340, toll-free.

PS-1: Sherer was interviewed last summer for an article by Eric Deggans of the St. Petersburg Times. That article (headlined “Isolating Our Points of Viewing”) can be found at http://mediachannel.org/blog/node/422.

PS-2: "Tampa Bay's Media Talk" typically has high-quality guests of local, regional and even national stature, though rumor has it that a blogger snuck in recently, after-which two cups of high-quality coffee and five bright, shiny peanut M&M’s were missing from a glass jar at the front desk. (What some people won’t do for a little caffeine and chocolate.)
