CouchSurfing Radio Episode 2 totally rocked- skydiving entrepreneurial babes, and wellness experts.

It’s hard to believe that just last week I spent an hour of going “uhhhhh”- and harder to believe that yet again, I threw it together!
At first, neither I nor my listeners could get on! I set the settings wrong, and we had to move the show to 11:30pm EST, instead of 11. But from that point, everything was on track.
Check out the Couchcast
Download the episode for home/car/plane/etc.. listening.
This time, I had two guests. Hottie adventurer entrepreneur Ingrid Vanderveldt who races motorcycles, jumps out of a plane, is building up a company valued at $100,000,000, and knows the value of being unique, and seeking mentors. I find her inspirational, and she tries to empower women-entrepreneurs.

Practical Raw Expert - Sue of BeWellWithSue.com
My 2nd guest was Practical Raw Food Expert Suzanne Thomas. Suzanne makes doing raw food beaable. I know, because I would never have lost my 28 pounds in 30 days if it wasn’t for her! She teaches about exercise, gives great reciipes, and more.
I finished the story about the guitar, and got to tell an amusing story about Google Voice, and some limitations we found in the technology.
I had two jokes in there that you can use for your very own! Both of these jokes I learned at the very 1st couch I stayed at in 2007.
If you’d like to see more of Ingrid, check out this interview I did of her in person.
Here are 4 segments from her show where she interviews me :
Part 1: How to be a professional Couch Surfer
Part 2: CouchSurfingOri – The most highly skilled hobo in history.
Part 3: CouchSurfingOri “You can never fail, you can only quit!”
Part 4: Bonus, with slightly crappy audio, but pretty fun / funny!
I was not distracted like last time. This is week 2, and it sounds 100 times better than week 1. Week 3 will be even better!
I have Peter Shankman on the show next week. You don’t want to miss it! Peter is hillarious, a well known keynote speaker that is masterful at social media, and that is absolutely masterful at PR.
He is a skydiver, triathalon participant, and has enough frequent flyer points to get to the moon and back.
You can read more about Peter on his blog.

This was an awesome show this week Ori. Love the ending of the guitar story. Too funny.
Ingrid and Suzanne were two great guests. I couldn't stop smiling during the Ingrid interview.
You know how to entertain, that's for sure. Oh, and the ending joke was funny. “Now I can hang up” haha

Man, I wanted to marry the girly when she was talking about the bicycle lending program at http://www.sustainableaction.org/ Heck, she could even have a face for radio cuz it sounded like she had a heart of gold.
Looks like I'm a bit late for that gem though! Great show. Great peeps!

Thanks for having me on your show Ori! I feel honored to have been your first guest live in the studio (my yoga/meditation room your currently surfing)! It was tons of fun.
I really appreciate all the sexy design work you have done. You went above and beyond with the Sustainable Action site and Be Well With Sue. Having pretty websites that are pleasing on the eye helps spread my message of –
Be good to yourself and the planet! EAT healthy foods and always go on AWESOME ADVENTURES to connect with the wild.
May 2010 be full of superfood smoothies, green drinks and sprout salads…..

Thanks for being on the show!
I only bring top-notch people, and I can definitely vouch that you are that. I think you'll get a ton of traffic to http://BeWellWithSue.com when people see that I'm losing EVEN MORE weight– just hanging out with you, and eating in your healthy ways.
One of my listeners already wants to marry you for your heart of gold.

I've updated the post so there's a picture of Sue. She definitely has a heart of gold. I”m thrilled that you checked out the show Jason. Were you in the RV when you listened to it?
I gotta have you on the show! You're traveling, and I keep describing you as “One of the most interesting people I've EVER met!” So, I'd say you qualify for sure!
January 6th, 2010 at 9:32 pm
I think that'll now be the formula— ending with a 1 liner when the voice says “10 seconds left” –
With Shankman on the show, I can guarantee that next week's episode will be riotous! That dude is funny!
Thanks for tuning in.

Ingrid Vanderveldt has a $100,000,000 company and yet she can't (or won't) pay contractors she owed a couple thousand dollars to? What's wrong with this woman? She just uses people for a project (American Made) that wasn't profitable, continues to cite American Made as what led to her success, thanks her contractors for doing such a great job, but NEVER pays them no matter how well her business is doing years later. It's people like Ingrid who give business a bad name.
