THE RED BAR RADIO SHOW JOINS THE SIRIUS/XM SATELLITE RADIO FAMILY!
Since 2003, The Red Bar Radio Show has been independently produced by creator/host Mike David, and has basically only been marketed via word of mouth. There have been snippets of success along the way, as well as ups and downs, and a “format” that is forever changing. This week, Red Bar takes it’s comedy Internet radio show / podcast to the next level. Starting Thursday December 8th, the show will become available on SiriusXM Satellite Radio, on EXTREME TALK channel 165!
How is this gonna work?
Everything will remain EXACTLY the same! The podcast and live version of the show, the show that you have now, will be there just as always – FREE, five days a week, at 3pm cst on our website, and up on the podcast feed directly afterward. The SiriusXM show will be weekly (Thursday nights at 10pm cst., on Extreme Talk Channel 165. It will be the EXACT same show as the podcast, except it will only be one hour long. It will remain uncensored, and basically just a shorter version of the show you’ve all come to know and “love.” It’s about as basic as it gets!
The show in it’s infancy will NOT be live. We will be recording it during the week, and sending it over to them to air on Thursdays. So we will technically be doing SIX shows per week, Monday-Friday, with one of those 6 shows being the one that ends up on SiriusXM. Not sure exactly what day we will record the SiriusXM show, or if it will broadcast live on our website or not. The show MAY be available int he BARMY, our bonus content section of the website.
How do we get the new SiriusXM show? Is Sirius and XM the same company now? I’m confused!
Yes, this is a bit confusing. Although the two companies have merged, the programming is still separate in some cases. There are three packages you can get. An XM only package, A Sirius only package, or the SiriusXM package. If you have an XM or SiriusXM package, you can hear us on ch. 165, no problems. However, if you have the Sirius-only package, you may see that there is no channel 165! In that case, call the customer service department, and tell them that you want the “XM ADD-ON” so that you can hear THE RED BAR RADIO SHOW! You can call them at: 1-866-635-2349.

Questions from real listeners answered!
Q. Will the SiriusXm show be on the iTunes podcast feed?
A. No. It will only be available on SiriusXm and POSSIBLY on the Barmy section of the website.
Q. What will the show be like? How long is it? Will it be a replay of one of the weekly episodes or a completely new episode?
A. It will be the EXTACT same show, except for the fact that it will run 60 minutes long, instead of 2 hours like our usual show. It will be a SEPARATE episode, and NOT a replay of our normal show. Or, if we have a really killer hour on one of the regular shows, I could chop it and use it. Well see!
Q. I know the show won’t be LIVE on SiriusXM, but when you RECORD the SiriusXM show, will it live on Ustream/the RBR website?
A. Maybe. Probably. I still want to have callers and the live interaction. We’ll see!

A. NO! I wouldn’t do it if they did!

A. You can get all of that information by going to http://siriusxm.com or by calling 1-866-635-2349 and telling them you want Extreme Talk ch.165!
Q. Will the SiriusXM shows have a permanent co-host?
A. At this time, no. Not sure how it’s gonna work completely, but I will basically just do it exactly how we do the regular show.
Q. What can listeners do to support the SiriusXM show to make it so that they love you?
A. Not completely sure yet, but for now, you can tell them how much you love us and want us to stay on buy the doing the following:

The new website designed by Mike, for comedian DREW MICHAEL is now up! Check it out! It’s still in it’s “rough draft” mode, and we’ve got a lot of style updates to do to get it more pretty-er! BOOKMARK THIS! Lots of great content to come out of this site in the near future! DREWMICHAEL.COM
Slight change of plans today guys – we’re gonna take the day off to catch up over here, so no LIVE show today. I’m sure most of you have a ton of content to catch up on anyway. We have some HUGE news to share with you, and possibly will be announcing it today. I will see if there is something I can put on the feed for today to keep you entertained. See ya tomorrow! Oh, if you’re starving for content, check out the ALL NEW BARMY! https://redbarradio.net/barmy – tons of bonus content added this week!

Well, that was a fun week.
Thanks to all of you for making the re-launch even better than expected! Obviously we have a lot of kinks to work out, but as long as the microphones and internet keep working, we’ll just keep riding!
I guess I’ll save most of my talking for the show, since we’re on every day now. We’re gonna try to have someone new on each show this week. Then once we get into a groove again, we’ll start making it even more fun!
The BARMY should be up and running tomorrow morning! We were gonna launch today, but we had a couple hold ups over the weekend that we weren’t expecting. Make sure to look out for our updates!
If you haven’t been watching our show live, try to check it out this week! We’re on LIVE every day at 3pm cst, over at https://redbarradio.tv . We’re going to be doing some amazing things with the video format, so you’re definitely missing out if you’re only listening to the audio version of the show. The video shows are all recorded, and uploaded to the BARMY the very same day! So once the BARMY launches, you will be able to catch up on all the video shows! Also, I’m sure a lot of you have seen our video highlight clis that come out after each show. Please SHARE these on your Facebook’s and Twitters! If we can all get in the habbit of sharing the videos every day, eventually millions of people will be aware of Red Bar, and hopefully a few of them will become fans! Check out all of the video highlight clips we have so far by visiting our YOUTUBE CHANNEL.
Oh – have you checked out our Amazon Wishlist? We’ve had the wishlist up for about a month now, and many of you have purchased things off of it to help the show get back up and running. When you purchase something from the gift lift, you get back double the value in Barmy, and some of the items even give you autographed memorabilia from the old studio! Check out this wishlist, as it’s only gonna be up for a week or two longer! CLICK HERE FOR THE WISHLIST!
