Cheating the Ferryman, Is there Life After Death, The Daemon.

We are delighted to announce that subsequent to Anthony's interview on BBC Merseyside's Billy Butler Show in September the BBC have decided to offer Anthony a regular slot on Billy's show.

It seems that the audience response was such that the "Beeb" feels that Anthony and his radio manner will draw many new listeners to the mid afternoon slot every second Monday.

Anthony will be discussing different elements of ITLAD/CTF for half an hour from 1500 to 1530. The first slot will be broadcast live on Monday 9th November and the second on Monday 23rd with a slot each second Monday from then on.

It has been agreed that the first slot will discuss one of the favourite subjects on this FORUM .... the deja phenomenon.

Anthony intends to take on itladian theme every slot.

What is great news for all FORUMITES is that these shows will be broadcast on DAB and FM across the greater Merseyside and North Wales area and will be available to listen on the web. The shows will then be available on "Listen Again" for seven days after broadcast.

The shows will also have the facility for listeners to phone in or text questions, observations or comments. This is yet another opportunity for itladians from across the world to join in on a regular basis.

The web option will be found on:

Tony: This is wonderful news, excellent to see, and really goes well beyond blog talk radio, and almost supplants much of the need for that venue. Bravo, well done and richly deserved. Your speaking style is one of the warmest and most intriguing , and has earned you this.

Great news, well done

Heartiest congratulations, Tony !!!

Art,

Great to hear from you.

You will be interested to know that my first broadcast will take the deja phenomenon as its subject matter. I will, of course, be referencing your work, and that of Vernon.

Should you feel the urge to email, text or even phone the studio I will be delighted to have your involvement.

Cheers

Tony

One of the best magazines in the World,Fortean Times, have announced this event:

We would like to thank Owen Whiteoak, Sub Editor, for this.

Nice bit of circularity that Ouspensky would have been proud of. If you follow the link above you are given a link back to this Posting. Is this not exactly what ITLAD suggests happens to us all the time!

I am delighted to announce that my first "guest" on my slot (if I can really use that term) will be our very own Dr. Art Funkhouser. Art intends to phone in from Switzerland. I am really honoured that one of the world's leading authorities on the deja phenomenon will be contributing to my very first "slot".

Unfortunately I will only be "on-air" for half an hour and this will be broken down by music so in reality it will be about twenty minutes or so.

So do not worry if you fail to get through .... but please try, particularly by email and, if you can, state where you are contacting from. As there will be a series of these slots every two weeks you will have many more opportunities to get "on air".

I have no idea how this first broadcast will work out but the interest in it has been absolutely amazing. Thank you for all the emails!

Thanks to Tony and Art and the FORUM members for their involvement in my recent Déjà Paper:

FORUM: Déjà vu, Consciousness, Time & English Pubs

ONLINE PAPER: Déjà vu, Consciousness, Time & English Pubs

My paper is also with the BBC and a copy with Radio Merseyside ahead of Tony's appearance today so best of luck, I hope the show is a huge success.
