BUSINESS – Here’s another independent businessman who turned his childhood affection for great hot sauce into an exciting product and business venture.

Catch him posing at South Florida sporting events all year long, usually with a bottle of sauce in hand! Check out his website and order some today. Also become Bone Lee’s friend on facebook here.

THE HOMELESS VOICE GUY STORY – Thanks to Bob Leonard for coming on with me on such short notice. In this hastily assembled episode, I blurt many of the things nobody wants to say about the Ted Williams story. We discuss the viral world we live in, sobriety, homelessness, the struggles of the radio and voiceover industries and exploitation. I urge everyone that listens to this to comment at will. Check out Bob Leonard on CNN Headline News’ “Prime News” Thursday at about 6:30pm and friend him on facebook.

HOCKEY / PHILOSOPHY – Happy New Year! In celebration, the first show of 2011 takes place in a bar over drinks. Listen as we explore the sarcastic mind of Erik Spzyra, the “spotter” for the  live show at Florida Panthers home games. He’s also formed E. Michael Szpyra Photography with his wife and talented make-up artist Toshi. We get details on his career endeavors and we get into some detailed hockey talk for the hardcore hockey fans. By the way, no that’s not a Halloween costume. Erik regularly dresses and acts like Dr. Evil.

MUSIC FRIDAY – Jacob Jeffries visited the Bill Murphy Show Studio in July to play stunning versions of a few of his tunes and chat about the business. Enjoy this “best of” Music Friday show for the New Year’s weekend! Bands and artists can come perform live in our Plantation studio anytime. Listen for new Music friday shows every week in 2011!

RADIO/RECORDS – The owner of CD Heaven (pictured with Joan Jett 25 years ago) stopped in to remember classic So. Florida radio days and discuss the state of the record industry. I’d like to highly recommend a documentary I recently found called “I Need That Record!” which does an excellent job of telling the story of the industry’s drama of the last 15 years but also portrays a stereotype of the indy record store owner. After you listen to Bruce, watch some of INTR here on you tube or see it for free on your Netflix streaming disc. Feel free to comment here afterwards. Fascinating stuff! Special thanks to Bruce and CD Heaven for the loyal support of the Bill Murphy Show!

MUSIC FRIDAY – On August 13 I had an opportunity to interview one of my musical heroes. Enjoy this encore of Music Friday with mighty axeman Pat Travers. We listen to a couple of tracks from his latest album Fidelis and get into production detail with one of his classics. PT is on the road regularly these days so make sure to catch the Pat Travers Band close to your town. Find tour dates and become an official “Hammerhead” at Pat’s official website.

WEB DESIGN – We go overseas to Pembrokeshire Wales, UK via Skype to get some straightforward talk about the world of website designing and access to reliable tools to help the small business owner make friends with the internet! Chris has been in it since the beginning and gets excited with each approaching wave of technology. Visit ChrisKellett.com and browse his impressive portfolio while you listen closely for many useful design and technical tools, many of them free, that he reveals along the way! Knowledge is power.

MUSIC FRIDAY – Fernando Perdomo joins us to share some of the new DIS material set for release in early 2011! They will be showcased at SXSW in Austin and you can help support their trip to Texas!
