‘Blogging isn’t really writing’
Finally, somebody gets it.
Last night
Very interesting show with Matt Stoller, who says it’s too late to count on electoral politics. What to do? Well, you’ll have to listen.
Also, in the beginning of the show, a chat with the famous Spocko, the brilliant blogger who so effectively stripped Glenn Beck of his corporate advertisers.
Tonight
Matt Stoller, blogger, former economic policy staffer for Alan Grayson, and all around know-it-all (I keed! I keed!), will be my guest tonight on VVS at 9pm EST. I kind of suspect we’ll be talking about the debt ceiling kabuki…
Click here to listen. As always, call 646-200-3440 with questions or comments.
Tomorrow night
Matt Stoller is a very, very smart person (he predicted the mess we’re in three years ago) and he’ll be my guest tomorrow night on Virtually Speaking Susie. Tune in, it’ll be interesting.

6. Begin your question with ‘QUESTION’ so it’s easy for the host (and me) to spot.
The other night
I completely forgot to post my very enjoyable show with the esteemed Lance Manion from Tuesday night. (I also forgot my brother’s birthday was Sunday, so don’t feel singled out, Lance.) We talked about local government, what it takes to run for office and what progressives can do to change their towns.
Tonight

Last night
Had a fascinating talk with Steve Volk about his new book “Fringeology: How I Tried to Explain Away The Unexplainable — And Couldn’t.” You can listen here, and learn how his look at how we react to the idea of the paranormal also tells us a lot about the political brain.
