THE FDH
LOUNGE
THE FDH LOUNGE has brought back the
Great American Radio Show, albeit to Internet television. Now emanating
live Wednesday nights from 7-10 PM EST (previously on Sunday nights) on
SportsTalk Network.com, THE FDH LOUNGE branches beyond the traditional
FDH Enterprises, LLC-produced programming of fantasy sports and general
sports content to also encompass pop culture, politics, geopolitics,
'wrasslin', general news and whatever else the Dignitaries of THE FDH
LOUNGE deem worthy of their focus. The LOUNGE prides itself on smart
and entertaining roundtable discussion and interviews on more subjects
than any other program anywhere would dare to tackle. Truly, THE FDH
LOUNGE is the one program for which the slogan “nothing is off-topic”
applies. In the box to the right, you can check the content of every
one of THE FDH LOUNGE programs and you can access audio-only versions of the archived
programs
here. THE FDH LOUNGE absorbed the previous FDH Wednesday night
lineup and now THE FDH LOUNGE exists in its classic "nothing is off-topic"
form from 7-9 PM EST with THE FANTASYDRAFTHELP.COM INSIDER as a "show
within a show" from 9:00-9:30 PM EST and THE GOON SQUAD bringing you hockey talk from
9:30-10:00 PM EST under the same arrangement.
On August 14, 2007, The FDH Lounge
Multimedia Magazine
launched on the Blogger platform as a companion to the content on The FDH Lounge Internet TV
program. Click
here to read the magazine's introductory statement and click
here to go to the
magazine's
home page. We have added a
month-by-month guide to the magazine content composed by The FDH Lounge
Dignitaries that has been archived on Blogger. A complete list of the
present month's content is listed on the right side of the
magazine's home page.
In addition to a constant array of columns, links, audio, video and
pictures, there are several permanent features on the site: a free feed
subscription service, news feeds on various subjects, a poll question,
sports scores, stock quotes, rotating videos, labels for past content and an ever-updating reproduction
of our FDH Lounge Twitter feed. With the exception of
announcements about the program itself and any other "housekeeping
matters," here is a compete list of topics covered each month of the
magazine's existence (content is listed in chronological order, but
appears in reverse chronological order in the archives). Enjoy!
