Today is has finally arrived. It’s finally here. The debut of the Hard Starboard Radio Network. Which for some reason isn’t mentioned in today’s “Heading Right lineup” list at the top of the page. Maybe you have to have done a show before that “little” promotional detail kicks in. Guess I’ll find out, huh?
Today I’ll be introducing myself, how I came to be a host on BTR, and up to three of my colleagues from RepublicanForum.com in what I envision as a weekly roundtable discussion of each week’s political and foreign policy events.
And, if I wind up flying solo (How’s that for truth in advertising?), I have some catching up to do on the ongoing Iranian crisis that bears some covering.
10AM Pacific time is the, um, time. This is the place.
As the late Freddie Miller used to say, “Beeee there!”
UPDATE: Ask, and ye shall receive….
UPDATE II: Well, my Ric Flair “WHOOO!” sounded like a Dude Love ”OWWWW!”, and my closing bump wouldn’t kick in for two minutes, and of course my voice for print came through loud and clear, but all in all the maiden voyage of the Hard Starboard Radio Network wasn’t too bad.
Rich Whaley from RepublicanForum.com called in and we had a modestly far-ranging discussion of the McCain-Kennedy amnesty bill, Monica Goodling’s testimony before the Senate Judiciary Committee this week on the US attorney firing non-scandal, and a brief foray into just how premature all this presidential campaign buzz really is.
That said, I’ll be sure to join the Heading Right live blog of the next primary debate and the roundtable discussion of it afterwards at Debate Central. Self-imposed peer pressure, y’know. Besides, I won’t have to moderate, and sound-bite wisecracks are more my speciality.
And apart from all of the above, any show that includes a story about an anaconda trying to eat an alligator and exploding makes the cut in my book.
Next Saturday we’ll hopefully get Ted Hall, who jumped on at almost literally the last minute, into the mix, and my co-contributor Jennifer Crawford (aka Jenber) as well.
