I'll be on Hoist the Black Flag Radio today some time after 4:30 P.M. (EST) to discuss the left-leaning tendencies of academia.

Ace tells me I'm in the second slot. In David Letterman terms, that puts me right after the musical act and right before stupid animal tricks. The first slot--the one I call the Angelina Jolie slot--is being filled by Greyhawk. It will be worth tuning in just to see if Greyhawk reacts the same way to me as Angelina Jolie reacts to having to sit on the couch while Carrot Top yammers on about his latest cameo on a straight to video film.

While I can't promise you I'll say anything intelligent or funny, I can promise that I will be more intelligent and funny than Carrot Top.

Which isn't really saying much, but, hey, we all can't be as funny and sophisticated as Margaret Cho or Janeane Garofalo.

UPDATE: It wasn't my two minutes of fame, but at least I got to meet Greyhawk and Smash.
