Here is your chance to call in and talk about SciFi Channel's name change, and talk to the man who created the word "SyFy." ALSO! Alpha Waves will welcome Mitchell Rubenstein, one of the founders of SciFi Channel, to talk about the name change!01:31:00Wayne and NicknoHinman,syfy,Sci-fi,scifi,Alpha,BlogTalkRadio, Blog Talk RadioAlpha Waves -- The SciFi/Syfy DebacleWe're back!

Well, here I am!

The goal was to get SyFy Radio moving with our news hosts Wayne Hall and Nick Chase at the beginning of February. But then all hell broke loose ...

We sold the SyFy brand to NBC Universal, who surprisingly used "Syfy" to name their new network, and we had to quickly rebrand SyFy Portal into the much better Airlock Alpha, which you can find at www.airlockalpha.com.

Wayne, unfortunately, is recovering from surgery, so we thought, what the hell? I am going to drag Nick Chase out of mothballs, and we're going to host the first newly-christened Alpha Waves radio program (formerly SyFy Radio), and why not talk about the issue that's on everyone's mind? You know, that whole renaming SciFi Channel "Syfy" from the man who created the "Syfy" name, me!

So listen to a very special live broadcast Friday, March 27 beginning at 8 p.m. ET right here at blogtalkradio.com/alphawaves and even call in with your questions and comments. It will almost be like old times!

Let your friends know, and get a crowd ... because there's a good chance I may never talk about this whole "Syfy" thing again after this, and it could be your last chance!

Mark your calendar, forward this to your friends and enemies and even that girl you admired from a distance at the laundromat. We'll see you all March 27 at 8 p.m. ET!

I don't know about you, but the Wii Fit did a great job serving as a guest host last week, don't you think?

Well, if you hated him, don't worry ... it's all me through the next three weeks, and it all begins on Dec. 3 when we welcome Jonathan Frakes -- yes, Cmdr. William T. Riker of "Star Trek: The Next Generation" -- to SyFy Radio. Sure, sure, we had audio of him from Vulkon Orlando last summer, but this time, he's talking directly to us, just in time for his latest installment in "The Librarian" series which airs this weekend on TNT.

Next week, on Dec. 10, we'll welcome his former co-star of "Star Trek: The Next Generation," Mr. Data himself, Brent Spiner. This highly talented actor will talk about his days on Star Trek, life afterward, his new music album that is coming out, and whether fans have given Rick Berman and Brannon Braga a fair shake. It's an interview you won't want to miss!

So make sure you tune in every Wednesday at 10 p.m. ET/7 p.m. PT at www.SyFyRadio.com, or at www.BlogTalkRadio.com/SyFyRadio!

We have yet to announce our Dec. 17 guest, but we will soon, and it will be our last show of 2008! We'll then be back Jan. 7, and then I'll be leaving SyFy Radio Jan. 28 to make room for Wayne Hall and Nick Chase, so don't miss a single minute!


Both are promoting Phoenix Comicon 2009 Jan. 23-25 at the Mesa Convention Center in Phoenix (www.phoenixcomicon.com)

Riker of "Star Trek: The Next Generation" -- to SyFy Radio. Sure, sure, we had audio of him from Vulkon Orlando last summer, but this time, he's talking directly to us, just in time for his latest installment in "The Librarian" series which airs this weekend on TNT.

Next week, on Dec. 10, we'll welcome his former co-star of "Star Trek: The Next Generation," Mr. Data himself, Brent Spiner. This highly talented actor will talk about his days on Star Trek, life afterward, his new music album that is coming out, and whether fans have given Rick Berman and Brannon Braga a fair shake. It's an interview you won't want to miss!

So make sure you tune in every Wednesday at 10 p.m. ET/7 p.m. PT at www.SyFyRadio.com, or at www.BlogTalkRadio.com/SyFyRadio!

We have yet to announce our Dec. 17 guest, but we will soon, and it will be our last show of 2008! We'll then be back Jan. 7, and then I'll be leaving SyFy Radio Jan. 28 to make room for Wayne Hall and Nick Chase, so don't miss a single minute!


Both are promoting Phoenix Comicon 2009 Jan. 23-25 at the Mesa Convention Center in Phoenix (www.phoenixcomicon.com)

"So why am I doing it? It's not that I don't love doing SyFy Radio. I do," Hinman said during the Nov. 12 broadcast of SyFy Radio. "I don't walk away lightly. But by the time I hand the reins over to Wayne, it will be almost a year since we started doing SyFy Radio, and that's a long time. I know it sounds like I just come on here and make stuff up as I go, but it really does take a lot of work."

The announcement was made just hours after Hinman and Hall finalized plans to hand over SyFy Radio, which will not only move to Sundays beginning in February, but also become a monthly show.

Hall will be the primary host of the show, joined by sidekick Nick Chase, who also is SyFy Portal's lead programmer.

"I'm looking forward to how it's going to evolve and turn into something," Hall said during the recent show. "We'll try some new things, and [we'll] keep the good old thing as well."

The actual day of the month has not been finalized yet, but Hinman plans on continuing weekly shows of SyFy Radio through the end of January, including two holiday specials just before Thanksgiving and Christmas. Upcoming guests on what Hinman called his "farewell" tour include "Battlestar Galactica" and "Terminator: The Sarah Connor Chronicles" composer Bear McCreary, and "Babylon 5" creator J. Michael Straczynski (of course, scheduled guests are subject to change).

Hinman is not leaving SyFy Portal, the site he founded in 1998, and he told Hall that he would stop by and visit the show from time to time, but he's looking forward to seeing how the show progresses, and is hoping it will morph back into a weekly show as it is now.

"I don't want the show to end. In fact, I want it to get better," Hinman said. "And I think Wayne is the man to make that happen."

SyFy Radio began on BlogTalkRadio last March, and has aired as a weekly show ever since with occasional on-location specials from places like the Vulkon convention in Orlando, and Comic-Con International in San Diego.

Guests have included everyone from Webmasters of popular sites to actors like Jane Badler of "V" fame, and the recently married Star Trek legend George Takei.

By moving the show to a monthly format, SyFy Radio will be able to concentrate on fewer, better guests, Hinman said, while allowing the show time to evolve.

Hinman declined to say what his new project would be, but did say he would be sticking with BlogTalkRadio. It's likely his next radio project will be related to a third site being launched by SyFy Portal's corporate parent, The SyUniverse Group Inc.

Because of a scheduling conflict, we had to move Dee Wallace up to tomorrow night!

Who is Dee Wallace? You'd probably best remember her as the mom in E.T., but she's recently written a book, and has some experiences to share of director Steven Spielberg from back when he was still a rather young director.

So be sure to tune in Nov. 12 at 10 p.m. ET/7 p.m. PT at www.SyFyRadio.com!
