I need your help. I was watching Larry King Live last night (not a normal activity – we were watching the Chapman’s interview). At the end of the broadcast, he said something that sparked a thought.
Go to CNN.com slash Larry King (one word) and let us know who you would want to see on Larry King Live.”
Instantly, I had an idea. I should be a guest on Larry King Live. Unfortunately, I’m not famous and I haven’t done anything Larry-worthy.
So that’s where you come in. I want your help in getting on Larry King Live. All I’m asking is that you go to Larry King Live’s website and click the link on the left hand side. Then, send an email requesting that I, Todd Ramsey, be a featured guest on the show. I’ve even created an email that you can copy and paste to make it super-fast and super-easy.
Dear Larry King Live,
I am writing to request that you feature Todd Ramsey on your show. It is likely that you’ve never heard of Todd Ramsey – he certainly hasn’t done anything famous or worthy of coming on your show. But he is a blogger. And a social media aficionado. And that’s how he got me to send this email.
I think your viewers would like to see him and it would be fascinating if a person got on your show simply by engaging the blogosphere and social media world.
You can read more about Todd at his blog, http://toddblog.net, you can follow him on Twitter (ToddBlog) or find him on all major social networks.
Thank you for your consideration,
YOUR NAME
(You should probably replace “YOUR NAME”, but that’s up to you, I suppose.)
Thank you so much for your support. If you do end up doing it, leave a comment below. I’d like to see how many people will help me realize my dream.

Excuse me…sounds like this little adventure might require you taking time off work.
-Your supervisor
Done. And good luck!
OK, Todd. I’ve done my part. Good luck!
Sure. I’ll do anything for you, friend. Let us know when you’re scheduled to appear.
I sent in the guest request!! I’ll link to it on my blog.
Done!
I have your back. I just want some suspenders autographed by Larry the K himself from your apppearance.
you are welcome.
Did it! Good luck!!!

PS Tell your lovely wife “hi” for me — thanks.
It’s done. If you do get it, imagine how awesome it would be if you show Larry King what you can do. I’m thinking maybe bringing a few certain friends from a certain “liberal” drama group that you were a part of in college. We could revamp a skit to make it relevant to the current social & political climate. “The suffering of so many people in the world is a huge issue, & that issue deserves more than 2 minutes of our time.” *cross & head bow*
Sam, I can see it now:
“Larry, what are you doing?!”
“I’m hosting a show.”
“NO! You need to go to the polls and vote.”
“Ok.”
Exhale and headbow.
Brilliant.
Sent. Good luck!
Done. That would be amazing.

OK, I did it. But if you do make it on, I would like to request that you call Larry out on national TV for being a giant douchebag.
Just sent it in.
First Larry King, next Colbert!
John DeCesaro
sent.
Done.
Though “your dream” appears to be a whim that just struck you recently I am fully supporting it. However if you do get on the show you MUST at some point say the words “Grape Ape”. Or at least I think it would be really cool if you did.
I am a blog addict in podunk Wyoming. Your sister-in-law’s and I have realized that we are complete strangers with a whole lot in common after I found her blog. Her blog link encouraged me to help you out. Hope you get a call from Dave!
Done.
I wonder if you’ll learn if you’ve been passed over.
I did my part. Good luck!
i so did this. hope im not too late. i didnt check your blog last week. sick kiddo
Just doin my part to help you fulfill the dream. . . ’cause I like a dreamer!
Done. You’re gonna be big.
(checkout my blog! just got it up and going mostly because of you’re encouragement, Todd! http://www.rossboone.com/blog )
