Radio appearance

I’ll be on DaTechGuy’s program on WCRN in MA tomorrow morning at 10:45 am ET or thereabouts. Instapundit will be on immediately before me, probably talking about invisible cloaking, or how one day we’ll be using nanobots to fast-broil our Thanksgiving turkeys and mash our potatoes or some such.

For my part, I’ll be talking about Occupy Denver’s attempt to force their way into BlogCon11 — and the fallout from my having videotaped and posted some of the ancillary participants.

This is Datechguy’s one-year anniversary show, after which he’ll be hosting a lunch salon for those of you in the area who want to go and schmooze.

If any of you are awake and wants to call in, the number is toll free 888-9-Fedora. Ask me to do my Tony Montana imitation or something. Because I have very limited material otherwise.

    Yes, eastern, thanks.

  2. newrouter says:

    ma gave it away

  3. dicentra says:

    8:45 am for us MTs, then, and much worse for AK and HI.

    That’s just cruel, the way ET can make us dance like that.

  4. dicentra says:

    Unless Jeff was thinking in terms of when he had to get up and stuff.

  5. dicentra says:

    Too bad you’re not on before Insty, or you could try to start a blogwar with him by accusing him of drinking puppy smoothies.

    Though actually that’s Frank J’s schtick.

    You’ll think of something.

  6. JohnInFirestone says:

    I’d love to listen but will be putting out fires (literally) then. Will this be available as podcast?

  7. Jeff G. says:

    Podcast is available a couple days later, typically, but with Thanksgiving coming up I don’t know.

  8. Blake says:

    Jeff, just set loose the armadillo of radio.

    Seriously cool stuff.

    Reno?

  10. iron308 says:

    I couldn’t get the radio station link Jeff posted to play, but this one is working for me.

  11. serr8d says:

    Don’t let that MA accent throw you off. They do it on purpose just to distract I’m betting.

  12. motionview says:

    Is this right 888 9 fedora = 888 9 333672 ? See what happens when you ignore cell phone only people? Please Rasmussen, we need good data. And DaTech Guy is a little quaint with the landline mnenomic. I wonder f he gives his home phne number as HUDSON Three Two Seven Hundred.
    Or is it just too early on the West Coast?

  13. DarthLevin says:

    Able to listen via the TuneIn app on iPad. When I don’t have to be on a stupid tech call for this weekend’s upgrade, that is.

  14. motionview says:

    landline mnenomic. I wonder f he gives his home phne number
    Sorry. ‘mnenomic’ = ‘pneumonia’, ‘f’ = ‘WTF’, ‘home phne number’ = ‘throat warbler mangrove’.
    Make more sense?

  15. serr8d says:

    Insty didn’t inspire me whatsoever. He hate me I’m thinking. But I clawed my way out of nothing (to barely nothing) all on my very own, with zero help (yeah, I know, ‘and it shows!’).

  16. guinspen says:

    Raymond Luxury Yachet, check.

  17. motionview says:

    This is at least somewhat accessible and if it proves out really gives the bitch slap to all the mystical bullshit associated with quantum mechanics. Why is that relevant to a smart military blog whimsical blog about language?

    But our present QM formalism is not purely epistemological; it is a peculiar mixture describing in part realities of Nature, in part incomplete human information about Nature, all scrambled up by Heisenberg and Bohr into an omelette that nobody has seen how to unscramble. Yet we think that the unscrambling is a prerequisite for any further advance in basic physical theory. For, if we cannot separate the subjective and objective aspects of the formalism, we cannot know what we are talking about; it is just that simple.

    And once we accepted that we cannot really know anything, well, everything went up for grabs. Plus you don’t see many current physics papers that reference Karl Popper.

  18. Jeff G. says:

    doing this interview buck naked.

  19. motionview says:

    Pretty good so far.

  20. Jeff G. says:

    Will be on in the next segment, too. To talk about how I have an iPhone.

  21. JD says:

    iPhone 4s rocks. Except for that damn glass back.

  22. motionview says:

    Can you segway segue to the media’s language use, OWS vs. TEA Party?

  23. motionview says:

    If you control Siri(?) can you eventually control the boundaries of discourse?

  24. DarthLevin says:

    Can you give a ShoutOut™ to all your fellow non-accented peeps in Flyover Country?

  25. Jeff G. says:

    i’m still on the line

  26. DarthLevin says:

    HE WORKED IN THE iPHONE REF!!! YOU ROCK, BOSS!!

  27. Jeff G. says:

    Okay, I’m off. Son has a birthday party today and the Indian restaurant we tried to go to last night had closed down. So I’m still craving the subcontinental spices and must be satiated.

  28. motionview says:

    Have fun, congrats on the new one news, we’re off to pick a tree.

  29. Jeff G. says:

    I worked in a Koch brother reference and the filthy capitalist radio host used it to try to drum up business. I’m OUTRAGED!

  30. serr8d says:

    Good show, it was.

    Indian, eh? A warmup teaser musics.

  31. JD says:

    Off to go jump in a lake and get my last workout in before the race tomorrow.

  32. bh says:

    So I’m still craving the subcontinental spices and must be satiated.

    Your comments from yesterday may have changed my perception of Indian food forever.

  33. geoffb says:

    You’ll be just fine as long as you don’t piss off the “server monkey”. If you do then who knows what wonderful spices may be added at no charge.

  34. ThomasD says:

    Depending on where your home is another viable alternative to a shotgun is a lever action rifle that chambers a pistol caliber – like a Marlin 94 in .357/.38 caliber. Yes it is a bit more unwieldy than a pistol, but if you live more suburban or rural the added range/accuracy may come in handy, particularly in situations where help is delayed or otherwise off-line.

    Pistols are great at inside the house range, but for moving targets at anything beyond a few yards hit potential drops off drastically, even for the well practiced.

  35. bh says:

    I bet there are actual server monkeys somewhere in India.

  36. JD says:

    I am exploring the rate in which hypothermia overtakes the body with and without a wetsuit. Cold water sucks balls.

  37. motionview says:

    When you say actual server monkeys in India I hear a cool suburban monkey Indian
    -Some Guy in North Texas who expects you to revise that comment, contact everyone who read it, apologize, and pay reparations

  38. geoffb says:

    I have Jeff’s complete radio time as a 7.9 meg mp3 file. That includes the break times as he went into the 2nd hour. Is there anyone I could send it to who could host it and post a link in comments? I sent it to Jeff G. but he is away for a birthday party for a while.

  39. dicentra says:

    I heard it live (plus the Insty stuff) but soon feel asleep. Was that RSM on afterwards?

    Then they went to a football game, I reckon, because I dreamed about being the third driver of a new high-speed electrical car that won ever heat.

  40. geoffb says:

    RSM on the video.

    In discussing the beliefs of the Occupiers, including these 17-year-old girls who attend a private Catholic academy where the tuition is $14,000 a year, Jeff suggested they had been “indoctrinated.” This called to mind Buckley’s description of indoctrination in Up From Liberalism, and made me wonder how these girls were taught that they are “the 99 percent” on whose behalf the Occupiers claim to speak.

    Born in 1994, these girls cannot possibly have any useful memory of political events prior to the Bush presidency. They were in first grade during the 2000 election and were 14 when Obama was elected. Therefore whatever “knowledge” they have of history is what they have been taught, and the content of that curriculum undoubtedly accounts for their sympathy with the Occupy movement.

    I tune in on one of those hand crank radios.

    GeoffB, or Jeff, here’s the place for it; easy to sign up and utilize. Or, send it to me if you’d rather not leave another ‘digital footprint’. )
