On today's Declaring Independence (unless Rachel calls again):
On today's show, just a single guest for the full hour: Paul Krassner. Founder of the Yippies (Youth International Party), member of Ken Kesey's Merry Pranksters, publisher of The Realist, and the world's only investigative satirist. Oh, and did I mention that he dropped acid with Groucho Marx? This should be a most entertaining show.
Comments
pfffft! I'm pretty sure I dropped a hit or two with the Grouchmeister also.

Speaking of which, I posted your interview to Youtube. James Hanley was complaining about some of the rather dubious things Rachel said before the interview, so I thought it might be good to have a video of just the interview without all the other stuff.
Sorry about the video quality. I'm still new to the whole video editing thing. But here's the interview for anyone who's interested:

Oops! I'm sorry. It wasn't James Hanley that raised questions about Rachel's comments. It was Michael Heath. My bad.

Taking acid with Groucho Marx has to be the best party anecdote ever.
