On the last Alison Rosen Is Your New Best Friend I unveiled a brand new segment which was a smashing success! Actually, I think we’d all agree that’s not true, and as you can see in the video (at the bottom of this post) it was the end of the night and I was punchy and weirdly loud at times. Yay for me!

Anyway though, I wanted to give you guys a little context. Wheel of Fortune has their Before and After category which I’ve blogged about and done stand up about.

Jeopardy has recently raised/lowered the bar with their segment called something like Overlapping Words (I forget the exact title) which is what I was spoofing on the show.

On the next Alison Rosen Is Your New Best Friend

As many of you already know, Wednesday I’ll be talking with adult film star Courtney Cummz on my Ustream show. I’ve interviewed her on my web show but never had her on the live Ustream show so this is exciting but but but but BUT I want to make sure it’s a nice, friendly respectful vibe so I’m expecting all of you to be on your best behavior.

Am I making myself clear?

I’d love to be able to ask her your questions so if you have any, please leave them in the comments. I’ll be taking questions from the chat room during the show as well, but putting them here is a good way to make sure I’ll see them.

And as always, I want to thank all of you for being the best fans/viewers in the whole world.

RSVP for the show for updates about time changes and whatnot.

On the next Alison Rosen Is Your New Best Friend

So because Jon Stewart clearly hates my hair, my friend who’s a producer for The Daily Show who’s supposed to cut my hair on air has to reschedule AGAIN because this time he’s flying to Atlanta or some such. “Like hell you are!” I yelled into my hairbrush, after applying a quarter-sized dollop of styling gel from my roots to my split ends. Then I bent over and blew all my hair forward and then straight up, like DJ Paulie D from Jersey Shore. It looked good.

So this week I will have my pal Koryn Kennedy IN STUDIO. She is a former Maxim radio “Emergency Hot Chick” which means she’s both hot and good with dispensing relationship/dating advice. She’s also a sometime voiceover artist and can do all sorts of crazy voices and accents which is secretly why I want her on the show, because I find that endlessly entertaining since I can only  do zero accents. In addition to looking hot and impersonating Bostonians, Koryn works at Marie Claire as a writer and editor.

But that’s not all. We’ll also be talking to Dustin later in the show and I’ll be unveiling a brand spanking  new segment which involves a quiz. I think you’ll find it fun. If not, I’ll hunt you down and kill you.

And we might do our second fan phone call or we might do that the following week. I haven’t decided if that’s a weekly thing or a biweekly thing or a triweekly thing or a monthly thing. Feel free to weigh in.

And RSVP for the show why don’t you! Also, tell all your friends! Yay!

Catch all this hot action on Wednesday at 10pm EST/7pm PST.

Highlights

I mentioned this on Twitter last night but just wanted to make sure you guys know that anyone can make highlights on the Ustream videos so if you have a favorite part of an episode that you want everyone to see, feel free to get on in there and designate it!

Also, just wanted to send a big special thank you to all of you for being so awesome in both the funny and the more serious moments.

Picture of a duckling? Ok!

Picture of me on Red Eye from the collection of pictures on my desktop which I haven’t yet put on my blog? Ok!

Look how emphatic I am! Feisty!

Another? Fine, if you insist.

And by the way, that shirt is green, not blue. I don’t know why it looks blue.

Tomorrow, Wednesday, JAN 20 at 10pm EST/7pm PST

My pal Laura Leu will come over and give me an accordion lesson! Also, we’ll chat with comedian Liam McEneaney who’s hosting a benefit for Haiti on Jan 25 featuring Fred Armisen, Todd Barry, Janeane Garafalo, Kristin Schaal, Wyatt Cenac and other people whose names I don’t  have in front of me! Dammit why don’t I have their names in front of me? Someone is getting fired for this.

Not only that, Liam is all buddyroo with Triumph the Insult Comic Dog, or so it seemed at the show I saw him host where I won a raffle. Remember that? I intend to find out if it was as exciting for Liam as it was for me. I suspect it was.

And also, we’ll be inaugurating a new segment where we call  up a fan. Yes, that’s right, the FIRST FAN PHONE CALL! OR perhaps that should be written PHIRST PHAN PHONE CALL! No, I’m sorry, it shouldn’t be written that way.

Anyway, RSVP here.

Oh and as a side note did you know I learned I draw as many viewers as Kevin Pollak’s Chat Show which is considered super awesome and a sign that one can have success doing internet chat shows? Why I’m not rolling around in sponsor dollars—or any dollars—is beyond me. Anyone know any sponsors? Send them my way please, lest I get evicted in the midst of a broadcast which would be super embarrassing!
