I'm going to be on tonight with the HIllbilly Atheist. For those who don't know him, the Hillbilly Atheist is a good ol' boy from Oklahoma who is extremely funny. He has a radio show on the Freethought Media network, which is owned by the Infidel Guy. To listen to the show, click here. On the right hand side an inch or two below the top are three links tha say "Listen At" and it has three speeds, 128K, 48K and 24K. You actually don't need the top speed for it to sound good. We go on the air at 8 pm eastern time.
You can see a profile of the Hillbilly Atheist here and you can download some of his earlier shows here.

I'm going tonight to hang out with an old and dear friend, Don Reese. He's performing this week in Grand Rapids and we always get together when he's anywhere near here. Being on the road sucks and it's always good to have a buddy around to spend the day with, share a meal with, and just talk to.…

I've been laid low all day with a cold. To entertain myself while unable to read, I've listened to podcasts, and when I ran out of shows I subscribe to I started checking out Podcast Alley's top-10. Unfortunately, most people being morons…
The third entry on my "These Are a Few of My Favorite Things" list is my favorite sportswriter. That honor goes to the legendary Sports Guy, Bill Simmons. The Sports Guy writes for espn.com, as well as for the Jimmy Kimmel show, and he's the funniest sportswriter this side of Bill Scheft. But…
I rarely do these blog memes, but I saw this one at Noonan's place and thought it would be amusing. You take the top 100 songs from the year you graduated high school (1985 for me) and pick out the ones that wouldn't make you instantly change the radio station if they came on. Here's the list:

Well, Ed, I gave it a shot. And you actually came off sounding intelligent and, by the way, nice baritone. But I have two words for people who want to broadcast either audio or video over the internet, or whatever other alternative channel they find available to them. Production. Values. The way to reach a real audience, not just our version of (please excuse the usage) dittoheads, is to produce something that at least approaches the slickness and quality of, say, an NPR or commercial broadcast. One thought-don't do it live. Get in the studio and record a show, edit it, clean it up, add the effects as necessary, and make something that people might be able to listen to. Just a thought.

I listened. Some of it was funny, but it's my least favorite style of atheist humor and commentary. It reminded me a lot of Madeline Murray O'Hare's show which I watched exactly .5 times.
It makes me shiver with delight when Dawkins talks about the Old Testiment being "a deeply evil book," but this? I don't care for constant ridicule even if the objects of the ridicule really deserve it. It feels like ad hominem to me and I'd rather attack the argument, not the person. I'm stupidly idealistic enough to want to SAVE the person.
Yikes, I certainly don't like being compared to Madilyn Murray O'Hare, a woman I thoroughly despised. I don't mind ridicule when it's deserved, obviously; I mind the assumption that every Christian deserves such ridicule, which is not at all true.
