John Hawks on the radio

By razib on March 29, 2006.

You want to know what John Hawks sounds like? He'll be on Radio Open Source tomorrow (there should be a web feed). I talked to David Miller about getting John on the show before he became famous in Slate, so I am going to take a little credit for this. John and Spencer Wells will be "facing off." John, can you ask Spencer to make his email address more accessible? I'm tired of people emailing me and asking about ways to contact him!

Update: John was really amused throughout the whole show. Spencer Wells asked kind of sarcastically (?) if I was "Richard Dawkins." No, I'm not, Spencer :) Thanks to Chris Lydon for giving a shout out to me at the end of the show. Also, Brendan said that both John and Spencer were on the show at my suggestion, so that's cool, I guess I'm a "scientific activist" of sorts now?

Some "inconvenient questions" for Bill Maher and Richard Dawkins tomorrow

The Maher conundrum
Oh, boy. As many of you already know, the big AAI conference is taking place in LA at the end of this week — I'll be there! — and they are giving Bill Maher an award. This is a problem. Maher made a provocative movie about religion this year, Religulous, and that's the kind of thing we want to…
The Unending Kwok
I thought I was being a nice guy by not blocking John Kwok the moment he tried to friend me on Facebook. But that was a mistake. At first, there was only the occasional strange note from him via Facebook "email." But then, several hours ago, the dam broke and the Kwok just poured in. The…
