I sound much taller than I really am. . .

April 9, 2008 By Marta Darby 8 Comments

I know.
You come over here and read my blog all the time and you wonder . . .

"What does Marta’s voice sound like?"

Well, here’s your one big chance to find out. (Because I’m sure after they have me do this, they aren’t likely to ask me to do it again, but that’s not important right now. =D)

I’ll be co-hosting the Babalú Radio Hour with Henry "El Conductor" Gomez this evening.

Tonight at 5pm Pacific – 8pm Eastern

Click HERE to listen to the podcast.

The  Call-in Number is :  (646) 652-4506

Be kind. 😉

    Hi Marti,I put the baby to bed, ran to take a shower, dried my hair, and now I am sitting in my kitchen, listening to you. You sound so cute!!
    I would call, but since I am terribly embarassed about hearing my voice on the air, I opted to send you this message.
    Felicidades!
