It's that time again! Cosmo Con!!

Are you there/going? Have the best time ladies and gents! Wish I was there!

Welcome to the Grand Re-Opening!

I am your host, Kelly, and I want to welcome you back to the NEW Cosmo Happy Hour. Prior to the new name, we were Cosmo Radio Recap. After a hiatus, I've come back with new vigor to create a place where our Fake Life Fam can go before, during and after our favorite shows on SiriusXM 109 - Cosmo Radio.

For those of you who are new to this site, or are unfamiliar with me... I'll introduce myself. I have been listening to Cosmo Radio for 5-6 years, slightly less than the channel has been around. I started the Cosmo Radio Recap a couple years ago (I think?) when I realized that there are a lot of listeners that are only able to listen to the shows during their commute. They ended up missing a lot of the goodness during the rest of the shows.

I quickly got to know a lot of other regular listeners, back when our "fake life family" was just in its infancy. I've been through the "afternoon head bangers club" with many of you, which was the Twitter group that would talk ish during Cosmolicious because of poor grammar, boring topics and severe misuse of common sayings. Eventually victory was ours, and Diana Falzone was no more! She really didn't represent Fun, Fearless Females very well... we are all MUCH smarter than that.

It got to the point where I needed a way to stream the shows while I was working, so I talked my husband into letting me get an iPhone. To this day, that is the only place where I get my Cosmo Radio fix. I love streaming through my phone. But I can never change my plan... I got in while AT&T had an unlimited plan for data! I think I use 7-8 GB per month!

Over time, my recaps became less and less and I just got too busy with my full time job to keep up. Some Twitter/Cosmo Radio friends helped contribute to the recap, but that also became more than each of us could do with full time work.

Along came Michelle, who has had all of the Cosmo Radio Recap accounts in her possession for several months. Recently I requested to get the accounts back from her because I had a little more time and I had new ideas for the site. Fortunately, it was perfect timing because she is now too busy at work.

And here we are... Back at it - in a whole new way... motivated by CosmoCon to reconnect with all of my old friends and make new ones, my love for the station and its shows, and also my love of blogging and keeping up with all of you.

I welcome anyone's posts... just send your note to me at cosmoradiorecap@gmail.com! Whether you want to recap a day's shows, write about your CosmoCon experience, write about your friendship with other FFFers, talk about something that inspired you, share your fashion/pop culture/etc information, or whatever... Send it to me!! While the site is still under construction, I plan to have a page that is only posts from YOU!

Be sure to follow me on Twitter @cosmohappyhour.

At some point www.cosmohappyhour.com will get you here, but I'm having trouble with it right now. You can get here with www.cosmoradiorecap.com or www.cosmoradio.blogspot.com for now.

I am going to try to make this site as interactive as possible, but I also hope to see ya'll on Twitter and Facebook! (Facebook is my next thing to get back up and running. I need more "Likes" so I can get a nice URL --- stop by and Like CHH!: https://www.facebook.com/pages/Cosmo-Happy-Hour/116155455160612

Love you all and so glad to be back!!

Cocktails with Patrick Recap - 8.16.10

Movie Review
Patrick saw Dinner for Schmucks over the weekend. Not a fan! He gave it a rating of one star. YB said that it had no plot and was not funny-a complete debacle! Lea is bummed that Scott Pilgrim vs. the World did not do so well in the box office. She thinks that part of it may be because of the number of free premiers the movie had before the opening weekend. Lea believes that it will do better once it comes out on DVD. The Expendables was a huge hit over the weekend, as well as Eat, Pray, Love. Have you all seen these movies? What do you think of them? Patrick still has not seen Avatar =)

ShavingHair was quite the topic on Cosmo Radio today!
Do you shave your guy? Does he shave you? Is it a turn on? The calls were very interesting, and all over the board. Some found shaving their significant other sexy. Others, not so much. One guy called in and said that his ex-girlfriend had a thing for men that had no body hair. He shaved, and regrets it big time. He can’t get out of the shaving cycle-if he lets his hair grow in, it looks funny, so he has to keep shaving. One caller said that her man had an odd looking situation down there, and shaved him to make him more attractive to her. Another caller said that her boyfriend (who was quite hairy) used Nair on his chest, but the hair was too long for the product to work. She shaved him, but didn’t find it all that sexy.

Patti StangerPatti called off the engagement with her man. She wants to have children, but he didn’t. Patti says that a couple has to agree on non-negotiables. She tweeted about it…a little odd. Is that appropriate? Patrick is not a fan of that type of tweet.

Cocks with P Breaks the BandAnd the finalists are…
Dayna Kovacic-Livin’ a Lie
Beau Davidson-Lay You Down
Flo Anito-Uh Oh

A panel of 17 judges (Cosmo radio hosts, Hits One radio hosts, a record executive, etc) listened to close to one hundred entries for Breaks the Band. This group narrowed the pool down to the five that have been selected. This is a really awesome opportunity for these up and coming musicians. Be sure to visit www.sirius.com/cosmoradio to vote on your favorite band!
