I debated whether or not I should do an Orbitcast Radio show tonight, but as soon as I found out it was National Margarita Day, I decided I needed to do a show (tequila is my weakness).

Oh, and we're going to (officially) announce a little thing like The Orbies winners tonight too.

Break out the salt, because we're celebratin' tonight! And don't forget to call into the show: (646) 595-3690

Tune in tonight @ 8pm ET/5pm PT.

(pssst, it's only a half-hour show tonight.)

Tonight on Orbitcast Radio, I want to talk about one thing and thing only: Georgetown Partners LLC and their "interests" in Sirius Satellite Radio Inc. and XM Satellite Radio Holdings Inc.

After the recent news surrounding Georgetown, I thought it would be a good opportunity to give some dedicated focus on this organization, highlight some its history (as well as that Chester Davenport and the Rev. Jesse Jackson) and to discuss what alternatives the listeners feel would be fair.

Tune in tonight, at 8pm ET/5pm PT, right here online. As always, there will be a live chatroom where everyone can interact and you can call-in and participate live on the "air" - (646) 595-3690.

Just a reminder that tonight is the return of Orbitcast Radio - live at 8pm ET/5pm PT. There is no channel because it "airs" right here on the internets.

We'll cover scrumptious details like:

• The current state of retail (or lack thereof) - what can be done to revive it?
• The Orbies - who's winning and who's not (only one more day left to vote!)
• Cool things we've seen in the past weeks - like Hyundai's touchscreen interface, XM Note and more
• And of course, the Sirius-XM merger - The current battle from Clear Channel, the prospect of surrendering spectrum and the fact that we'll be 354 days into this ridiculous process...

We have lots of ground to cover, and since it's a live show - you can call in and participate. The call-in number is (646) 595-3690 if you'd like to join in on the conversation (and as always, there will be a live chat room open during the show as well).

And if you happen to be one of those rare few people who are actually doing something on a Friday night, have no fear, because the show will be archived for your enjoyment.

Yes folks that's right, Orbitcast Radio returns this Friday, February 8th at our new time: 8pm ET/5pm PT.

This episode we'll talk about my favorite point of criticism: the current retail strategy of satellite radio (and is there even one?). We'll also cover The Orbies and who's currently winning. Plus, we might even talk about (gasp) the Sirius-XM merger and the disgrace that it has dragged on for so long.

So be sure to tune in live, this Friday at 8pm ET/5pm PT, because Orbitcast Radio is back!
