Left of the dial

Air America Radio debuts its programming this morning on WLIB (AM 1190am) in New York, WNTD (AM 950) in Chicago and KBLA (AM 1580) in Los Angeles.

Chuck D and Lizz Winstead (creator of "The Daily Show") hit the airwaves here in New York at nine. Yes, you read right. Chuck D. His hosting a political radio show has been a fantasy of mine since the 80's. I've been sitting in front of my radio all morning like a kid waiting for everyone to get out of bed on Christmas. I know I shouldn't have my hopes up (there was never much under the tree anyway), but at the least we are finally being offered a little lefty Yin to shove up Bush's Yang.

I strongly suggest you turn Air America on at work, and watch your Rush-lovin' coworkers die, just a little.

You want stylin' - you know it's time again...

But he was preempted today. However he was a guest on Frankin's show this afternoon, and said his show will air tomorrow morning. You can stream it at work.

I don't know what this says about me, but I haven't been this excited about something since, well, that's private. Let's just say I'm all a flutter knowing he's even standing within a few miles of me.
