Missed the June 20 episode of ARIYNBF? Don't cry!
On part 1 of the June 20 episode of ARIYNBF, Michael Rosas stops by to play some songs live. Plus Just Me or Everyone and the introduction of a brand new medical advice segment featuring none other than my dad!
Go here for part 2 (more of my dad and the beginning of Fan Phone Call!)
Go here for part 3 (Fan Phone Call!)
On today's ARIYNBF
Due to unexpected events I’m back out in California which means another special From My Parent’s House episode of ARIYNBF.
In addition to appearances by my parents and Tobey, I’m super excited that my friend MICHAEL ROSAS, who is one of my very favorite musicians ever will be appearing on the show and will be playing live.
If you are unfamiliar with Michael Rosas, you should get familiar pronto. I’ve written about him and his projects over the years. He used to front SMILE and then SATISFACTION. Lately he’s been playing solo shows. I’m pretty sure I’m leaving out important Rosas-related info. (He also appeared alongside MATT COSTA in an episode of THE DAILY ALISON (my old web show) from a year ago.)
Aren’t these all caps annoying? I THINK SO.
So please tune in and chat on Sunday at 7pm ET/4pm PT.
Plus FAN PHONE CALL and all the other stuff you love.

In part 2 of the June 13 episode of Alison Rosen Is Your New Best Friend, Alison interviews Hugh Dornbush of celebrity spotting site OMGICU.com

(note, the video quality is poor for the first couple seconds and then it’s fine)
In Part 1 of the June 13 episode of ARIYNBF, Alfred Schulz stops by to share more Things You Never Hear People Say and then Pierre de Gaillande who met his wife-to-be while hanging out with David Bowie (David Bowie was his wingman) chats about the project that’s consumed the last couple years of his life: translating George Brassens into English. It’s quite possible we also chat about my back up plan/alternate life wherein I work at Hot Dog on a Stick, drive a Rabbit and get a perm. Then Pierre and Christian, his stand up bass player play some songs while I do some ferocious head dancing in the corner of the frame because I decided my viewers probably couldn’t stand to go very long without seeing me, which is just common sense.

About Sunday's ARIYNBF
As promised, Sunday’s show at 3:30PT/6:30ET is going to be a doozy. How do I know? I majored in doozy detection.
First and foremost, one of my favorite musicians PIERRE DE GAILLANDE who is from OC by way of Paris but now lives in NYC (just like me except for the Paris part) is going to be here to discuss his latest project BAD REPUTATION and he and his bass player, who plays stand up bass will be playing live in my apartment!!!!! You should really be barfing on yourself by now from sheer excitement. (Pierre will be playing a show the night before, June 12 at the Bell House in Brooklyn. You should go! More info.
Also, my dad who is a doctor will take your questions in a new segment called ASK DR. ROSEN! Or maybe it’s called Ask Alison’s Dad. I’m not sure, but you can send your questions to ARIYNBF@alisonrosen.com and put “ask dr. rosen” in the subject line.
And the triumphant return of NEVADA CALDWELL!
And ALFRED SCHULZ will be here!
And more surprise guests!
And all your favorite segments including Fan Phone Call and the one where I shoot myself out of a cannon! (And JMOE and Things You Never Hear People Say and Dating Experiment.)
Alright, see you Sunday at 6:30ET/3:30PT at http://alisonrosenshow.com/. Don’t miss it or I’ll eat my feelings.

A really nice email I received about ARIYNBF
I have a file on my computer which I’ve labeled “Fan Mail” because sometimes I receive emails from people which are so nice that I want to be able to quickly find them to re-read them when I’m feeling down or I want to put them on my blog which I never do, even though I always intend to do so. I think I’m really going to start though. Here’s one I received yesterday which I read out loud to my parents and which meant a lot to me.
Alison,
I just wanted to say how much I enjoyed today’s show. I love your dad. He is always a great addition to the show. I love his sense of humor and the way the two of you interact with one another.
There were a couple touching moments today that really had me thinking how lucky it is that I found your show. It made me realize the great connection you have with your fans.
I don’t think you could do this show if you did not care about people. For the handful of haters today… I don’t know if they know how good we have it,
where we can come and hang out and blow off some steam for a couple of hours each week. I feel sad for them. It’s always a few that try to spoil it for the rest right?
Maybe they don’t have the emotional content to allow themselves to enjoy life’s simple pleasures? So I just want you to know how much joy your show brings to my life each week.
I hope you had a great time with your family and friends on your trip to California.
Have a safe journey back to NY.
I really hate to fly!
Sincerely,
Jason Colacchia
Huntington Beach
Also wanted to say I appreciate the time and energy you put in your show.
