It’s kind of nice to have a Saturday where I don’t have much to do. Well, I do have a ton of laundry to do (I’m almost through my backup undewear, after which I have to go to the auxiliary underwear and, if things get really desperate, even the emergency bachup underwear, though I’m several weeks away from that). One thing you might want to check out is the start of George Galloway’s new call-in radio show on the talkSport Network in the UK:
Galloway, who was expelled from the Labour party in 2003 over the Iraq War, will tackle both political and non-political topics during the two-hour current affairs programme, inviting listeners to join in and air their views.
“Most politicians – and most politics – are boring. I don’t think even my worst enemy could call me that, ” Galloway said. “I intend to make this the most talked-about talk show on radio – and I think I have a pretty good track record of stimulating debate!”
I mean, he’s no Jerry Springer, but he’s got a really cool accent, so how bad can it be? And the show has a blog, so maybe we can make him an honorary Morning Seditionist.
The link for the stream of the station is here, and it’s on from 8PM – 10PM on Saturdays and Sundays in the UK, which ought to be 3 – 5 here on the East coast. I have the RelayAV set to record it. I wonder if they’ll have an international tollfree number to take calls?
