Okay, let's talk about the blue guy.
The dude who drank so much colloidal silver that his skin turned blue has just sneaked in under the wire to become my biggest in-box filler of the year (and of all time). Dozens — hundreds? — of e-mails have poured in with links to the YouTube video of this poor, deluded, future star of Broadway. So, okay, let’s chat…

WNYC!
Curiosity, Aroused was just licensed by WNYC in, obviously, New York City. That’s huge! No word on when it’s going to play yet, but I’ll let you know. Thank you to everyone who has written their local stations! Here’s the link again: http://www.prx.org/pieces/22589

Attention Seattlites (and the rest of you, too)!
My pilot public radio show, Curiosity, Aroused, is now available on PRX.org. That means that public radio stations across the country can log on and purchase a license to play the show on air, filling some air time for practically nothing in time and money. Everybody wins! A very cool, forward-thinking listener already wrote a letter to KUOW in Seattle,…

Stupid headline of the day
Courtesy of the Telegraph, I give you: Britons ‘healthier in medieval times’ Any child can tell you that such a statement is just stupidly wrong, wrong, wrong. I only clicked the link to find out how the journalist/editor/headline writer could possibly convince him or herself that such an insipid thing is true. I’ll save you the same trouble and tell…

There’s no voting this time, since now it’s all up to the Corporation for Public Broadcasting to decide whether or not they want to…

Weekend Editing, Day 3
12:11 Supplies wearing thin. Send help! Just kidding. I got to go out last night for the first time in what feels like ages (er, since Monday I guess). I made it over to dinner with Bob and Steve Novella (and Steve’s lovely wife, daughter and parents), plus the New York Skeptics, including Mike Feldman, Jamy Ian Swiss, and my…

Weekend Editing, Day 2 (+ UPDATE 4)
11:39am Last night’s heart-stopper has finally been solved. The problem was in the clock — as I mentioned yesterday, there are a few different clocks to use. PRX wanted one clock and my producer wanted another — the clock my producer was on was the one that would work the best with my show, and a miscommunication somewhere along the…
