Are you going to include your BIRDZILLA and Brick Oven Bill personas too?
13th Generation
Awesome! I’ll be sure to tune in.
Next stop: Chuck Todd’s gig on Morning Joe!
Violet
Does this mean you’re going to miss tonight’s clown car debate or are you going to cover it on the show?
DougJ
@Violet:
Maybe we can talk about it in real time.
Culture of Truth
I was about to mention that in the comments in the next fresh post!
Violet
@DougJ:
Can you talk about it while “Grandma Got Run Over by a Reindeer” plays in the background? Seems like it would be appropriate.
Temporarily Max McGee (soon enough to be Andy K again)
Easter Bonnet, please, as well as Yankee Doodle Dandy and The Monster Mash.

@Violet: There’s another fucking debate tonight? Jesus hates us all.
schrodinger's cat
@mistermix: That may be true but ceiling cat loves us all. Ask Tunch.

DougJ: Christmas songs?
I KEEEEL YOUUUUU!

Does that mean that you have become a Punditubbie?

@mistermix:
The winner of every GOP debate so far has been Obama. You may not want to watch them, but you should embrace them like Michael embraced Fredo.
Nicole
I would like to put in a request for “My Christmas Card to You” by the Partridge Family.
What?
Violet
@mistermix:
Yes, another debate. The last one. I posted this in the previous thread:
It’s the last one before Iowa and it’s moderated by Fox. Could be very interesting to see the forces at play there. Last chance to impress voters. Chance for Fox and Ailes to frame questions in such a way as to influence voters away from Newt and Paul, but to…which candidate? Romney? Last chance for Paulites to show their support in the audience.
It’s the last public clash of the GOP establishment, such as it is, and Ailes and the teabaggers and the Paulites. Who knows what will happen.

No one is talking about Salon’s Hack list for 2011?

Culture of Truth
Another debate? This has to be a conspiracy be America’s alcohol industry.

@Culture of Truth:
Gotta admit, an announcer intoning, “The Republican Presidential Debate, brought to you by Jagermeister!” would be full of delicious Win.
reflectionephemeral
Post title as in, “Don’t you know you can’t get near me, you can only hope to hear me”, I assume…
Culture of Truth
I not only admit, I applaud it.
Also acceptable would be “let’s get ready to ruuuuuuuuuuumble!!!!!!”
jayackroyd
actually the clown car segment is how we’re leading off. call ins welcome

I love that show and will definitely try to catch it in Second Life – Current TV is also doing a live chat during the debate so I’ll probably have both going :)

But ZOMG! Breaking! the salon hack list.
http://www.salon.com/2010/11/25/the_hack_thirty/
Keller at 11 doesn’t really honor his full body of work.
Elizabelle
@Jay in Oregon:
Ooooh. Thank you.
Although I suspect hacks make it off that list only by leaving this mortal coil …
Got to see how my man Jon Meacham is faring, after that hacktacular “Is Newt the next FDR? — just joking, people — column.”
Cris (without an H)
@reflectionephemeral: How about, “They said it really loud, they said it on the air?”
jayackroyd
@schrodinger’s cat: Only a kitteh could make that call….
Elizabelle
Salon’s Hack list: Bobo at 12; Morning Joe at 14; Jon Meacham at 18.
Bill Keller at 11; guess the top 10 are coming tomorrow.
Trying to see who’s missing so far …
Satanicpanic
I would like to request Christmas Shoes, Little Drummer Boy and something from Charlie Brown’s Christmas
peach flavored shampoo
Any plans to bring Grumpy Cole on as a guest caller? How many hours devoted to the unwinding of Galtian supply-side tax policies in Rochester as opined by Sullivan?
Cris (without an H)
I’d like somebody to call in and identify themselves as “David Brooks in Bethesda.”
danimal
@Cris (without an H): I would like to publicly thank DougJ for the Donna Summer earworm, three hours before quitting time and the alcohol necessary to dull my senses.
jayackroyd
@Elizabelle: Oh, no, they are there, my friend. They are there. No spoilers from me, though.
Salon’s folks need to do a better job of presenting this.
Cris (without an H)
Say Jay, will this continue to be available as an archive broadcast, in case I can’t tune in at 7PM Mountain (which is story time in this house)?
BGinCHI
Doug,
I highly recommend that you play The Decemberists, “Please Daddy (Don’t Get Drunk This Christmas)”
A close second is Los Straitjackets, “Holiday Twist.”
PeakVT
Via Fallows, an entire town in China is protesting.
Elizabelle
@jayackroyd:
Not finding 2011 Hacks 1-10; Keller’s at 11. Bobo sped from Hack #30 to Hack 12 in 2011.
The Mustache of Understanding is missing so far, as are Joe Klein (I don’t personally find him that bad) and Mark Halperin (vile, vile), so maybe they’re vying for Top 5 status.
Chuck Todd should be in there, somewhere.
David Broder’s dead, Allah be praised …
BGinCHI
Doug, I hope you will also take up the subject of why Ron Wyden is acting like such a douchebag. What the fuck is wrong with that guy? Did he fall for Ryan’s pecs in the gym? Was he kidnapped and replaced by aliens from the planet DumbAss?
jayackroyd
@Cris (without an H): Yes, this will be available as a podcast at the same link. Also at itunes http://bit.ly/k3Ekl9
BUT, I have to edit the audio file, and split it into two segments, so this link will have my discussion with Stuart Zechman on SOPA and other encroachments on citizen rights that’s taking place before DougJ comes on until I do that editing and uploading. Blame BlogTalklRadio for the delay
Oh, and any queries, snark, abuse, [email protected]

@Elizabelle:
SPOILER ALERT!!
http://www.salon.com/2010/11/25/the_hack_thirty/
Moustache at #3
Elizabelle
@jayackroyd:
Thanks. Perusing now.
Moustache was 3 last year too.
Elizabelle
@jayackroyd:
Thanks much, but I think that’s the 2010 list.
One to ten still to be detailed. Moustache is in there somewhere….
MikeJ
@Elizabelle: That is last year’s, as evidenced by the 2010 in the url.
Dee Loralei
I’m requesting “So this is Christmas/War is over” since the Iraq war officially ended today.
Alex S.
@Elizabelle:
I hope that this time, Mark Halperin gets the place he deserves. Last year, he was just at #2. Also, good to see Brooks climb 18 places, and yes! Wolf Blitzer… they might as well have a brick wall with a fake beard on the show instead of him.
jayackroyd
@MikeJ:
[crumpled in shame] but grateful for the correction.
Elizabelle
@Alex S.:
We will never have a hacks gap in this country.
Sadly.

DougJ,
Sweet, see you there…
eemom
listening:
DougJ smacks the PUMAs. Win.
Jay thinks Hillary is gonna be the VP. Fail. OMG, what a Fail. Who IS this guy?
jayackroyd
@eemom:
File it, baby.
It’s an obvious stratagem to seal the base.
eemom
@jayackroyd:
would you care to place a small wager?
I am totally not a betting man but this is taking candy from a BABY.
jayackroyd
@eemom:
Sure.
Let’s say a liter of a favorite beverage. Max value 50 bucks.
email me at [email protected] to confirm.
