Hoist The Black Flag in One HourWe'll be talking to radio host/blogger Brian "Radio Equalizer" Maloney," the point-man for the Air America embezzlement scandal. We'll be sure to plumb the depths of the question that still haunts us all: "Did you hear what Al Franken said today?" (I imagine the answer is a simple "No, who the hell is Al Franken?," but we'll plumb those depths anyhow. Have we retooled the show? Well, no, not yet. But we are refreshed. Sort of. It'll be at Rightalk at 4 EDT. Look for "Hoist the Black Flag," which should be right under "Channel 1" at or after 4pm. As always, the call-in number, which only JFH uses, is 866-884-TALK. Oh, and... We'll be doing the last twenty minutes without a guest. Just talking about the news. If you have a call particularly for us, do call in and ask. posted by Ace at 03:08 PM
CommentsHave any of the discussions of this issue explained the relationship between Piquant and the previous ownership? Do the officers and investors overlap significantly (minus Evan Cohen) or are they really two different groups? A link would be welcome... Posted by: JSinger on August 9, 2005 03:57 PM
You guys sound good today. :) Cute bickering and backchat from both of you. Posted by: Megan on August 9, 2005 04:09 PM
Yay! We aim to please you, Megan. Posted by: Karol on August 9, 2005 04:11 PM
I thought the times was delvin into the records to find if he got some sort of special treatment, or somehow pulled strings to get 'in demand' white kids, or maybe he checked some little box saying 'white only' and make some sort of fuss over that. That's the gist I got from the leftie blogs anyway. Posted by: Guy Dupree on August 9, 2005 04:13 PM
"We aim to please you, Megan." You're always welcome to please me, Karol, darlin'... Posted by: Megan on August 9, 2005 04:15 PM
Ha! No one believes you, ace, when you talk about getting down and dirty. As big a potty mouth as you are, you're not the type to roll around in the mud. Posted by: on August 9, 2005 04:19 PM
If they go after Maloney and it backfires, you know the left will be crying it was Rove behind it all. Posted by: on August 9, 2005 04:38 PM
Really good show so far guys. You're letting the guest talk but not letting him ramble too much, you're asking him good questions, Ace is being a smartass, and most importantly, Karol's jumping in frequently so I get to hear more of her delicious voice. :) Looks like you're finding your pace. Congrats. Posted by: Megan on August 9, 2005 04:38 PM
Air America may have higher ratings, but Hoist the Black Flag will always have the superior talent. :) Posted by: on August 9, 2005 04:39 PM
Brief OT - glancing over at CNN while Ace and Karol are on break. This "Situation Room" program seems to have potential; they just need to get rid of Blitzer... that guy could put the worst insomniac in the world to sleep. Posted by: Megan on August 9, 2005 04:43 PM
Oh sure, Megan thinks they're doing well on the day I blather incoherently and Karol has to cut me off. Posted by: JFH on August 9, 2005 04:46 PM
I'm sort of turned on by Karol cutting men off. Posted by: Megan on August 9, 2005 04:47 PM
"Puppies! Cute little puppies were also beneficiaries of this money!" bwahahaha Posted by: Megan on August 9, 2005 04:48 PM
I chickened out on my call... BTW, the link to Brian's blog was 404. Posted by: Man of Substance on August 9, 2005 04:49 PM
One wonders why Megan never calls in?? Posted by: JFH on August 9, 2005 04:52 PM
Ace, dude, only 10 minutes left, aren't there? Or did you guys go to a one and a half hour format? What happened to the 20 minutes of bickering you guys promised - "I'm really curious about this - is Janeane Garofalo a dirty filthy whore?" OMFG Ace, you fucking rock. You. Fucking. Rock. Posted by: Megan on August 9, 2005 04:52 PM
Post election, when DU was having its blood bath, one of the dummies posted that maybe choosing a tattooed heroin skank as a spokeswoman wasn't so smart after all. Posted by: on August 9, 2005 04:55 PM
"One wonders why Megan never calls in??" I do security-related work and I'm usually on call during the show's timeslot. :/ Have to keep all 8 phone lines clean and clear. I'll make arrangements and call in one of these days though. I want to talk to Karol :) Posted by: Megan on August 9, 2005 04:56 PM
"Post... ahem... the physical act of love." You so wanted to say "post-fucking." Posted by: Megan on August 9, 2005 04:59 PM
Yeah, that was me during the break. Posted by: Uncle 'Claw-Hammer' Jefe on August 9, 2005 05:07 PM
I really enjoyed hearing Brian Maloney. Posted by: on August 9, 2005 05:07 PM
"BTW, the link to Brian's blog was 404." Posted by: Megan on August 9, 2005 05:07 PM
I guess I should mention this now. I have two Megans who comment, Megan the Right-Wing Lesbian and Megan the Left-Wing Lesbian (from lesbiencesmoi). Man, I'd like to have you guys both on as guests. No idea what the hell you'd talk about. But I'm just tickled at identifying one as "Megan the Rightwing Lesbian" and the other as "Megan the Leftwing Lesbian." Posted by: ace on August 9, 2005 05:20 PM
Yeah, I got cautioned about language by the big producer. Posted by: ace on August 9, 2005 05:20 PM
I haven't seen MeganLCM around for a while - not since the Schiavo thing. What sign-off does she use in the comments? Posted by: Right-wing Megan on August 9, 2005 05:22 PM
I should have said the link on the "Right Talk" site not Ace's link. Posted by: Man of Substance on August 9, 2005 05:22 PM
Oh, speaking of Schiavo - he was just given an award. Credit MikeSC... Posted by: Megan on August 9, 2005 05:23 PM
she doesn't post here anymore. But she'd probably be up for a Megan the Lesbian debate, so long as you didn't get too.. you know, the way you are. Teeth bared and all. Posted by: ace on August 9, 2005 05:25 PM
The RT link is fixed now, probably thanks to Liz the producer. Posted by: Man of Substance on August 9, 2005 05:27 PM
Can't promise nothin' there, hon. ;) You should've seen the screed I was going to punch up over at her forums before I sobered up and thought better of it. Posted by: Megan on August 9, 2005 05:28 PM
Megan, Well, just be aware she's nice, she's reasonable, and she shares your name and your passion for Chasey Lain. Posted by: ace on August 9, 2005 05:29 PM
Yeah, I got cautioned about language by the big producer. You mean Karol? Posted by: on August 9, 2005 05:31 PM
[laughing] Let it never be said that I'll deny a shared attraction to Chasey Lain. Tell her to AIM me and we can determine our comfort level. Of course, you're not totally disinterested here, are you Ace darling? This would send your ratings through the roof. ;) LESBIAN POLITICAL CATFIGHT - RIGHTS AND LEFTS Posted by: Megan on August 9, 2005 05:31 PM
ummm... sure. No, we have three producers and/or engineers, and one of them gets annoyed at the dirty stuff. Posted by: ace on August 9, 2005 05:32 PM
She isn't posting much... only one post (about Peter Jennings) since July 2nd. http://www.lesbiencestmoi.blogspot.com/ Posted by: Man of Substance on August 9, 2005 05:33 PM
Well, just be aware she's nice, she's reasonable, and she shares your name and your passion for Chasey Lain. Puppies? Posted by: on August 9, 2005 05:33 PM
Megan, This has been my plan since before we officially got the show. I just never felt comfortable about arranging it. Posted by: ace on August 9, 2005 05:33 PM
Look me up when you can. :) I'll stick around on AIM for a bit. Posted by: Megan on August 9, 2005 05:35 PM
Wait, are you saying that even before the show, you fantasized about a Megan sandwich? I can't believe you would talk about your commenters this way, ace. Posted by: on August 9, 2005 05:36 PM
Just sayin', if she agrees, you can disagree with her, of course, but don't get personal, like you did with William F. Buckley. And PS, we'll be running porn music in the background during the debate. Posted by: ace on August 9, 2005 05:36 PM
I don't mind so long as Karol's the filling. :) Posted by: Megan on August 9, 2005 05:36 PM
I think ace plans on being the coldcuts. Posted by: on August 9, 2005 05:38 PM
"don't get personal, like you did with William F. Buckley" Dude. You missed the point too? Personally, I liked Buckley. I said that repeatedly. I even called him a "gentleman," which is a word I usually reserve for my father and my President. It's Buckley's lack of professionalism that annoys me. Posted by: Megan on August 9, 2005 05:39 PM
"ace plans on being the coldcuts" He's got another think coming, then. [g] Posted by: Megan on August 9, 2005 05:40 PM
It's his accent that annoys me. No American should talk that way. Posted by: on August 9, 2005 05:41 PM
Extremely off-topic, but I caught the prime-time King of Queens last night, and my God, has his wife put on the pounds. She used to have a cute bod, but now she WADDLES when she walks. For real! I'm so, so sad... Posted by: Dogstar on August 9, 2005 05:43 PM
"It's his accent that annoys me. No American should talk that way" Most definitely agreed. Also, no American should have that good a selection of Scotch in his sideboard. Goddamnit. :) Posted by: Megan on August 9, 2005 05:47 PM
Anyone else have sound problems? It sounded digitized when I tuned in. Couldn't understand anything unfortunately. Posted by: Silk on August 9, 2005 06:31 PM
Yeah, I was just listening to the playback and it was incomprehensible. Posted by: ace on August 9, 2005 07:07 PM
I had no problems with sound. Posted by: on August 9, 2005 08:05 PM

Lost Seventies Mystery Click: The Darkest Song Ever Recorded?
I think Professor of Rock (on YouTube) claimed this song was so upsetting that people used to pull over to the side of the road when it came on the radio. It's about a fatal plane crash, but obviously it suggests a fatal car crash too, which could wig out a driver. It's like one of those nasty 70s anti-war body horror movies. Not for the squeamish. I'm not even going to post the lyrics because they're upsetting too.

Former CIA operative John Kiriakou talks with Matt Taibbi about the Brennan/Comey Coup
Both guys are old liberals, maybe even of the far-left variety, and both are appalled by the Democrat/Deep State coup against the US. Kiriakou says that CIA officers were legally obligated to report to the Inspector General John Brennan's repeated overruling of actual intelligence to encode his partisan conspiracy theories into US intel product, but of course they didn't.
