Talking With Roseanne




Want to thank Roseanne Barr and her co-host Johnnie Argent for having me on their KCAA radio show last night. It was a last minute request, so I was unable to tell you Sonsters about it in advance. But the show is podcast, and there are two links, here and here. The first gives you the show's archives (with my appearance on Mar. 26), and the second is a direct link to the show. Whatever works best for you.

I'm in the last half hour of the show (at the 31:20 mark), and I had a great time, despite talking through the lingering effects of a chest cold. Seems Roseanne is a regular reader of the Son, which flatters and humbles me no end. I was and remain a big fan of her ABC sitcom, and enjoyed her brief attempt to take on "SNL" in early '96 with "Saturday Night Special", which only lasted six shows. These days, Roseanne wants to talk about culture and politics, and I'm more than happy to add my loose change. Her co-host Johnnie Argent was very pleasant as well, so again my thanks to both, and I trust we'll hook up again soon.
