In case you didn't already know (i.e. you don't normally read my blog), Ken Cook and I have been hosting a one-hour show called Twitter Tuesday every week at 11am Central (noon Eastern, 10am Mountain, 9am Pacific) on BlogTalkRadio. We have a guest or two each time, and we talk about various social media topics and using them to grow your business.
Sometimes, we just riff on each other and use funny sound effects and music to make each other laugh. It pretty much depends on our mood.
Currently, we are averaging 222 listeners per show for February.
I think we will likely shatter our listener record once again, with this week's incredible guest, Shel Israel.
About Shel Israel
Shel is the co-author with Robert Scoble of "Naked Conversations", which is a terrific book about how blogs are changing the way that businesses talk with customers. It is considered to be a seminal book on the topic of business blogging. He is also working on another book, "Twitterville". Shel's blog, Global Neighbourhoods, is ranked #59 on Ad Age's "POWER 150" list.

Hi Jason! We have broker's open house tours on Tuesdays, noon to 2, so I'm rarely around. This week, I'm serving lunch at one of my listings. I'd love to pop in one of these days! Have fun!
Susan - Keep in mind that you don't have to listen "live". You can access the archives ANYTIME, if you're interested. They are all at the same spot: http://blogtalkradio.com/jckc. Thanks!
Jason, I have the same problem as Susan above but thanks for the link to blogradio. Was last week's the one about linkedin?
Barb - Yes, it was about video tips and LinkedIn - guest was Mike Mueller. Good stuff!
Would like to listen in but my office meetings are at that time.

Jason-Seems like we all have the same problem. I have MLS tour and Board of Supes meetings on Tues but will listen after the fact. Thanks for the link.
Thanks for the heads up, I'll be there on Tuesday. Thanks for the phone call the other day. Haven't had a chance to call you back yet. Looking forward to chatting.
Hi Jason: that sounds awesome your always doing something to help others.. thanks.. I'll try to check it out....
Ditto for me. Our office meetings are at that time, followed by brokers open houses but thanks for letting me know that we can tune in at any other time. Will do!
I think we will likely shatter our listener record once again, with this week's incredible guest, Shel Israel.
Hey Jason,
Shattering seems very likely! What's the capacity of BlogTalkRadio? Will you have enough bandwidth?
Thanks for positng the link to the radio show. I still haven't made it over your way to listen but with the amount of information and insight you generally offer I would be a fool not to do so.
Thankfully I have a closing on Tuesday around that time, so again I will have to listen later, not live. Hopefully one of these days I'll get to catch it live.
Jason -- Sounds like a new record is on the way. Let us know the new number.
Patricia - If you are interested, you can listen ANYTIME via the archive recordings on the same page: http://blogtalkradio.com/jckc. All of our prior shows are there as well.
Kathie - I hope you enjoy it!
Kate - That's awesome! Feel free to call when you have a chance. I would love to help.
Donna - Thanks for saying that! Much appreciated. I hope you have a chance to listen.
Leah - I hope you have a chance to listen at some point. Several of the shows have some very solid content.
Bruce - I guess we are about to find out!
Sabrina - Thanks for the compliment. I think you'll enjoy the show!
Tammy - Sounds like a plan. The live part is fun because of the very active chat room.
Norma - I will do that!
Jason - Shel sounds very interesting I'll have to tune in on Tuesday.
Robert - I have little doubt that Shel will be an interesting guest. Hope you can make it!
OK. I've been reading about this talk show every week. I guess it's about time I tuned in. I just have to remember!
Ah Jason....once again...I have to miss it! But hey, showing property is worth it, right? Altho I hate to miss this one....anything I can learn about blogging is a good thing!
I'll catch you one of these days I promise!
I am meeting with Loreena today instead of on Tuesday this week, so I'll be there this week. Thanks for the reminder.
Lisa - I hope you can remember! Should be another good show -
Thom - If you are interested, you can also listen to the recording later!
John - Cool! I know you have mentioned meeting with Loreena every week - what do you cover during your meetings?
Hi Jason, I am going to work on being there tomorrow. I am taking so many classes right now and with my business I don't know which way is up. This sounds like a very interesting Guest. I am not familiar with Shel.
PS, love that you spelled out the time zone differences for us, Lord knows we need it. See you tomorrow.
I picked up a copy of Naked Conversations after Sarah Cooper wrote a review of it right here in the Rain. But don't tell Shel (or Sarah) that I haven't finished it yet! Tomorrow's schedule looks like I'll have time to listen in; sounds like a great show.
Jason - Great show today. I'm new to twitter and did learn a thing or two today.
Jason, Thanks for the post & the great show. I am always learning new ideas and "norms" from you. Keep up the good work!
Didn't make the live show due to unforseen bladder issues, but enough about you. Listening to the show now.
Robert - Glad to hear that. We are on at the same time and place every week!
Christine - Thanks for saying that. I have done some local social media and blogging classes. Let me know if you have any interest in having me teach the agents that you work with.
Paul - Fair enough. I hear that kind of thing a lot. I hope you enjoy it.
