I spaced out about GSN’s new endeavor, GSN Radio, for a while yesterday by accident. I caught the last hour and I have to tell you, I was really impressed. It’s one of GSN’s best “from the ground up” projects. Right off the bat it’s very good. Probably because they have two great hosts, Bob Goen and his wife Marianne Curan, who know what they are doing and aren’t fumbling around. It’s great from the start also because, to be honest, it’s basically Playmania but with lower stakes, better hosts, and they don’t have to worry about the television image of it.

A good deal of games are played during the 1PM to 5PM broadcast, which you can listen to by going to GSNRadio.com. Some games include a How Much is Enough? like game called Beat the Bomb, Catch 21, a lot of trivia contests, and more. There’s a game very reminiscent of The Rich List. Hmm, wonder why. It’s a bit odd to have the show on during GSN Live, though. You’d figure GSN would want people to go from watching GSN Live to listening to the radio show without having to choose which one they’d prefer. But nonetheless, it’s a great project and I hope you listen and give some feedback. I’d love to see this expand more.
