[TTPTV] Up Front with Reed & Thomo Feb 27 8PM

Up Front with Reed & Thomo

Tune in to TTP on Monday February 27th @ 8:00 PM for the first of what hopes to be a long run of webcasts here on TTP (and beyond).

The show will run for a minimum of one hour (open-ended) every 2nd Monday to start.

Format will consist of a segment on the local soccer scene, a guest interview, and then we will open the phones and take your calls and emails. Everything will be webcast here, I'll give more info on this as the week goes on.

Our first guest is Frank Yallop, Canadian National Men's Skipper who will be discussing the reasons why he feels the FVSL is so far behind the VMSL and what they need to do to rectify it. Tactical stuff. He may touch on the Men's game on March 1st in Austria as well if we can fit it in.



As for the hosts of the show, I'll be working on some bio's and such for the pair of them, but really most of you probably know Rob Reed and Niall Thompson. Reedy is an original 6 member here of the forums while Niall is in the sign board reconstruction business

We'll be working very hard at this and hope that many of you will help support us by spreading the word and tuning in on Monday nights when the show airs.

Exciting times for local soccer as we attempt to extend TTP to another level!

Cheers,

~Regs.

Exciting stuff, Regs. So, can we assume Niall won't be at training on Monday?

 

[besty]

Will there be a 5 sec delay or will you just bleep out every time Niall uses the word C#@*!?

I think I heard him just call you a muppet.

 

[Keeper]

Is that a cigarette or a pen?

~Style.

 

[TheRob]

How's their FVSL background?

 

[coach]

Oh Christ i can't wait.

What's the phone in number going to be?

Nice work boys, these two boys could be very entertaining to say the least.

 

[Regs]

Phone number will be posted during the show... local and 1-800

We'll also set up an email and monitor it during the show.

Who'll be the first to say "first time caller, first time listener"?

Cheers,

~Regs.

 

[Zaurrini]

Good idea to go before 24 airs....

Great stuff Regs,

I like the play on words with 'Up Front' seeing as they're both prolific strikers.

Let's see what kind of prolific talkers they are.

We need to get Graham Brown on the phone to deliver Niall his first question.
The time Brownie called up Lenny Bobaduzzi on the air asking why Niall hadn't got a fair shake on a trip to California with the World Cup team was a thing of beauty to listen to...

Not that I should be the one critiquing Niall's coif, but any chance Reedy can lend him a comb in the studio?

Cheers,
RF

 

[Dude]

Outstanding progression Regs!

 

[Hands of Stone]

Pratt and Taylor of TTP, Reedie being the "FaT" fun loving guy that likes the Roxy and well Nial being the guy that works in North Burnaby. Should be a fun hour, is it on AM or FM?

First Caller, I think that it should go to Azzi, and why there are not more Superlative VMSLers on the National team?

Good job regs, too bad you couldn't go live from Kelly OB's on monday nights, now that would be a classic live show.

Funny you should mention that because that is a plan for the future... we can actually do the show at it's most basic level on the road, all we would need is a laptop and a phone

Cheers,

Oh, we'll you're screwed then. Phones are tough to come by these days. Where the hell are you gonna get one of those?

 

[Regs]

I know, I know... but we are hoping to strike a deal with one of the big mobility dealers in town to take care of that problem.

In reality, we just need to find a comb for Niall and some baby-sitters for all 3 of us

How about Lita? She has strong moral values...

I chatted with his hairness tonight (amazing, he did know we train on Mondays) and this should be good for a laugh if nothing else.

Can't wait

 

[lita]

Congratulations on this new embark TTP is taking, looking forward to watching it. Thanks for all the hard work that you put into making this such an interesting and innovative site.

How about Lita? She has strong moral values...

Maybe, I will be, wouldn’t that be a hoot but my dialling skills are a little slow and morals, morals are just rules and regulations that other people feel the need to conform to, to be seen by their peers in a superior light. Conformity, others rules, opinions = death to any type of happiness for me. I live by the oxymoron “my own morals”, but thanks for admiration, missed ya, babe ~ smooches.

Quick note:

The first few 'episodes' will be audio + slides only... video will be coming but we are definately not there yet in that regard (though I have been video taping what we've done so far, it's pretty funny)

Taped interview went well yesterday with Frank, about 40-45 minutes long with some pretty interesting discussions regarding soccer in Canada and Niall wanting to "bump into Janet Gretzky"

Cheers,

~Regs.

Any chance on airing a cage match in the future with Osame vs big Bag in a winner gets to coach Poco next year tilt?
