Hoist the Black Flag, Tuesday at 4 ET

And repeated later. Not really sure how all that works yet.

All on Rightalk.

First guests: Supercolumnist and superblogger Michelle Malkin and James Taranto of the must-read Best of the Web Today on Wall Street Journal's Opinion Journal thingee.

They've both confirmed (Michelle said "We're on like Donkey Kong," which I hope to have the opportunity to use in a conversation some time) but, obviously, there's always the possibility of a last-minute cancellation.

If there are questions you'd like to see us ask them, feel free to suggest them in the comments. We're working on our own questions, of course, and we probably won't be able to get to more than one reader-suggested question (if that; we've only got them for 20-25 minutes each, and that's just not a lot of time at all), but if you've got a great one, we'll see if we can slip it in.

Ummm, personal favor? Don't suggest any untoward questions for Michelle. Shockingly enough, she reads this moronblog from time to time.

Yes yes, she's very hot, but there isn't a lot of political interest in that line of inquiry. Unless it's something about the Dour Feminist Left's insistence that women ought not be pretty or use lipstick, but we're probably going to ask her something about that anyhow. Time permitting. We have a lot to ask both of them, and we'll probably get to less than a quarter of the stuff we want to ask.

Oh, As To Calls: Someone asked if we'd be taking calls.

We plan on taking calls. For this first show, do call in, but I've got to tell you, it's a bit action-packed and we don't know if we'll get to take many, or any, calls at all.

My original conception was a one-guest show, taking about a half hour, with a half an hour for Karol and I to riff on the news and take calls. Whether we switch over to that format is anyone's guess; for the first show, we're loading it up with guests because, really, we haven't done this before, and frankly we can use the help of articulate and interesting guests just carrying us along.

Once we get the hang of this, we'll see if we're able to carry that last half-hour ourselves. With help from callers, of course.
