When you (anyone) doesn't want to read from a script, wants to be casual, "ums" are going to come out. If you can cut down on them, fine. But I wouldn't let it worry you, you did really well.laura khttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05524593142290489958noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5730822.post-78614723301760061652009-05-22T08:55:40.771-07:002009-05-22T08:55:40.771-07:00Good stuff.

Like Ish and Laura said, we all hate to hear our own voices, whether on the air or on the answering machine.<br /><br />Interesting segment, and it showed that JOS has more than the obvious stuff that most news outlets and blogs have (like what should we do with Ortiz and what is wrong with our pitchers).

If you said all of that in that short of a time and did not say um at all you would have sounded like a rushed robot. It's impressive though that your blog looks at things other then the popular topics. He wanted to hammer the Papi talk cuz thats hot right now. Hopefully somebody out there saw this firstly and then found your segment interesting enough to come over here and get abused by me.andyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13080026360873456937noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5730822.post-11452653887985665272009-05-21T16:18:29.555-07:002009-05-21T16:18:29.555-07:00I had a hard enough time recording a voicemail gre...I had a hard enough time recording a voicemail greeting yesterday.

You talked as fast as you needed to. You do "um" a bit, but (a) you can work on that if you want, and (b) no one notices. And no one would notice your stutter but you.<br /><br />Anytime I've had the displeasure of listening to or watching myself do media, I've hated it - picking apart my performance. But other listeners focus on the information, not on the delivery. <br /><br />I truly think you did a great job and you should do as many of these opportunities as come up.<br /><br />So there.laura khttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05524593142290489958noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5730822.post-55653135344089087072009-05-21T15:56:06.329-07:002009-05-21T15:56:06.329-07:00"Isn't that like owning a McDonald's and giving aw..."Isn't that like owning a McDonald's and giving away Burger King coupons........"<br /><br />It's more like McDonald's realizing it has to serve something besides burgers and fries.laura khttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05524593142290489958noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5730822.post-30849756386780074162009-05-21T15:27:47.947-07:002009-05-21T15:27:47.947-07:00L-girl said...
