Oh well, nice knowing you, James. :(

This is a setup. Duncan and Garofalo will switch to accusations of racism the moment you start making points. After all, look at what Black said about Glenn Reynolds.

Joyner Vs. Black
James Joyner will be debating Duncan Black (aka Atrios) on Janeane Garofalo's daily talk show on Air America on August 18. Joyner's Outside the Beltway is one of the sites I visit daily. This is certainly an interesting concept: blogger...

I wonder what kind of audience they get. Garofalo is a big name but the show isn't available in most markets. Indeed, for a left-leaning talk network to not be on any DC affiliate is mindboggling. It's available on both of the major satellite radio systems (XM and Sirius) but I don't have either of them and, if I did, it would be in my car not my home.

Too bad you will only be heard by 22 people and 3 cats.

I can see why they would do something like this. You've got to have something to bump ratings at night, because the 8 p.m. hour is definitely not prime radio time. In fact, I don't know anyone who listens to talk radio at that time of night. 11 p.m. and after, yes, but not the prime time TV hours.

You'll lose.

IT'S BLOGFIRE! James Joyner will be debating Atrios (aka Duncan Black) on Janeane Garofalo's website. Should be fun, but Atrios is fighting way out of his intellectual weight class, so it won't be terribly enlightening. I'd love to see a good left/right...

Interesting. I don't think we can get that here in L.A. Be warned, though: Garofalo is the cowardly witch who debated our local radio talk show host Larry Elder, and then called him a "House Negro" and a "douchebag" other times when he wasn't on to defend himself. She didn't have the guts to say any of it to his face, probably because she knew he'd make her look foolish. So be careful. This woman may well decide to insult you after you've left.

Oh, I want to hear that. What stinks is that I'll probably be visiting my sister and new nephew at the hospital since he's scheduled to be delivered on the 18th. I'm making note, just in case I get a chance to listen.
