   Hello.  First off, I want to personally thank you for hosting a live stream of The Lean Startup Conference this year or in past years. More than 300 sites in 140 countries will be streaming the event, and upwards of 10,000 people have registered so far. As excited as I am about the conference, I must tell you that I am equally as excited at the thought of thousands of entrepreneurs worldwide coming together in their own communities to talk about putting Lean Startup principles into practice.  I also wanted to let you know that this Wednesday (Nov. 28) from 10-11a PST, I'm going to be the guest on an hour-long NPR news program - KQED's Forum. We'll be discussing the Lean Startup movement, the upcoming conference, and, because it is a call-in program, whatever else listeners decide they want to ask.  There are several ways to tune in on Wednesday:  - Listen to KQED's live Internet stream: http://www.kqed.org/radio/listen/  - Tune in to Sirius XM satellite radio (channel 135 - NPR Talk)  - In the Bay area, turn your radio to 88.5 FM or 89.3 FM  The show will be a great pre-conference teaser to get your livestream attendees excited about Monday's event, and could also serve as a good primer for those who want to learn more about the background of the Lean Startup movement. Please pass on information about the radio show - we'd love to have callers from across North America. This is an opportunity for us to show the strength and vibrancy of the Lean Startup culture.  During the show, anyone can call in to 866-SF-FORUM (866-733-6786), or 415-863-2476 if you're in San Francisco. You can also tweet your questions using the @KQEDForum handle, or email questions to [email protected].  Thanks again for your ongoing support and for hosting your area's livestream event.  Best, Eric Ries
