Please stop kind of having my face. Thank you.

Separated at birth
Yesterday I was on Hannity with Ralph Reed and something was bothering me and it wasn’t just the fact that we disagree about everything. Was it his tan? No, although he was exceptionally bronzed. Was it his alarmingly youngish image? No, although I’m sure there’s a rapidly aging portrait of him somewhere. Was it his uber friendliness? No, although had I not had prior engagements I would have been tempted to grab a beer with him which is also how I felt about Ann Coulter who’s more pleasant and unassuming than you’d expect.
And then I realized.
He looks a lot like Pete (Vincent Kartheiser) from Mad Men.
See me on Hannity and then chat with me on Ustream
Blurry post-show shot with Ralph Reed on the left and Steve Murphy on the right which is the reverse of how they feel politically.
I’m on Hannity tonight at 9pm ET on Fox News so please watch that and then perhaps love or hate me and then come here and join in the Alison Rosen Live Show (at 10pm ET) which is probably the most fun thing you could imagine times a zillion.
What should we talk about tomorrow?
As you guys know, tomorrow is another live Ustream chat (at 10pm EST/7pm PST). I couldn’t be more excited if I’d had all my internal organs removed and replaced with butterflies. In fact, I think I might do that. Instead of being an organ donor I’ll be an organ trader. Or an organ exchanger. Or someone who’s using an organ bartering system. But not an organ traitor. I would never betray my organs.
You can RSVP here. Do it!!!!!!
Last time some of you suggested we decide on some topics ahead of time. I think that’s a fabulous suggestion so why don’t you guys let me know what you think we should talk about? What’s on your minds?
Million dollar yogurt idea
I’ve been thinking a lot about how there are antibiotics, which are good for you according to doctors, and there are things which are probiotic, which are good for you according to people who hawk yogurt.
But see my whole life I’ve grown up with an awareness of antibiotics but this probiotic thing is something new and flashy and it sounds more like marketing than science.
So I was thinking that maybe everything anti should also have a pro version? For example:
Probodies
Procoagulant
Protidote
Profreeze
Promatter
Procipate
Proconvulsive
Naturally all of these will be sold in yogurt, so if you are any sort of yogurt proprietor (or antiprietor) you should make room on your shelf!
Fall back
We get an extra hour tomorrow right? If not, my calendar is lying to me and I’m going to have to give it a stern talking to.
Anyway, I can’t figure out what to do with my extra hour! I could use it right away on something I wouldn’t normally do with my time, like work, or I could save it for a rainy day or maybe I should just put in the bank where it’ll accrue a few seconds every year and by the time I retire it’ll be about an hour and two minutes?
What are you guys going to do with yours?
Let's talk about last night
Hey you guys. Last night’s live Ustream broadcast was super fun so if you missed it you are likely kicking yourself as well you should. Allow me to recap? First of all, it was amazing and I had a live in studio audience of stuffed animals as well as a live internet audience that was much larger than I’d expected. At times there were hundreds of people watching live at the same time and 4165 unique views for the broadcast. I think that’s pretty high but I’m not super versed in all this so if that number isn’t impressive do me a favor and quadruple it and then tell all your friends. (Just kidding. OR AM I?) (I am.)
We chatted with the lovely Diana Falzone who is hosting a Halloween party at Scores which is a strip club. We also named some inanimate objects including my portable desk fan. (We didn’t come to a consensus but Fanny and Blade were in the lead.) We chatted about my shirts, which also have names, and we talked about animals and animal names. We also talked about music and movies and we kicked some people out of the chat room which was pretty fun.
I was overjoyed to see familiar faces in the chat room and to meet all the new people.
Also, we learned how to say goodbye in Dutch. Goede Avond!
And I almost forgot: We were officially stumped by a Facts of Life trivia question but someone in the chat room knew the answer! That was fun. Do keep those questions coming.
If I had more time right now I would make little highlights of all the moments mentioned above however I don’t have that time right now but you can see everything in slightly less curated form here: http://www.ustream.tv/channel/alison-rosen-live-show

Question for you about Wednesday's live show
Hey all of you. So as you may or may not know, which for the first time is striking me as redundant because hello, doesn’t “may” suggest there’s a possibility of “may not”? It isn’t “as you definitely know.” Anyway, as you sure as hell probably might know, I’m doing a live show on Ustream on Wednesday, Oct. 28 at 10pm Eastern time. You can RSVP here. (RSVPing as far as I can tell just indicates that you may or may not watch but I enjoy watching the number climb so you should totally RSVP.)
So here’s my question for you: Do you prefer when I have a guest or would you guys rather be alone with me? And if you prefer guests do you want to chat with people you’re familiar with like my dad, Trevor, Dustin or would you rather talk to various luminaries in the fields of automotives and health/wellness? Note: I know no such luminaries. Had the fields been aerospace and mechanical engineering this might be a different story. Or it might not be a different story. But you know what I mean. Assorted notables.
Also, and I really like Emily Blunt and John Krasinksi but in the photo below doesn’t look like they both just sucked on lemon wedges?
