  • The BFN to host a webkast...[update]

    Rhett and Link are on Hiatus through the month of December.

    This means that their normal time slot for their Thursday Night Live webshow will be vacant.

    So, I'll be hosting the "whiletheyareout webkast"  this Thursday Night at 9pm.

    This will be the first 'scheduled' and semi-formated webshow from the BFN.

    I am already planning on sharing the commercial vids from npr32486's contest.

    People from Ustream AND Rhettandlink's Kommunity are planning on Attending...

    So, if you have vids, content, ideas...whatever comes to mind...(family friendly, of course)...please share it in the comment section.

    The Show Will air (9pm EST) at: http://brainfriednetwork.com/bfnwebcast.html
    More options to view the show will be provided later this week.

    Stay tuned!

    Until later, I'm Fried.
