Dare I say that the media spotlight continues? Jeff, will you be on?

Oh, that's bound to be awful. I can't stand Kojo -- he never really gets it, he's always making dumb and slightly inappropriate jokes that he interrupts guests for, etc. etc.

I find his show cringe-worthy.

Katie -- who wrote the WCP article -- Adequate Parent, and I will all be on the show (assuming it is not preempted by something more important such as events in Egypt).

In order to deflect attention from the fact that I will be an incoherent idiot among communications professionals, I will be revealing all of your secrets

How will Kojo introduce Adequate, DCUM handle or real name?

My understanding is that she will be wearing a bag with eye-holes over her head and we won't be allowed to know her true identity. If you have ever watched Top Gear, she is sort of like the parenting version of "The Stig".

Hey Lara, pleased to make your acquaintance. What's with the egg salad? Does your phobia extend to deviled eggs, too? 30 Rock is BRILLIANT. That Tina Fey is a good egg!

Thank you. I was afraid I was the only one. He's a banal pablum for complacent smug yuppie assholes. Unfortunately, a lot of WAMU is like this. And, no, I'm not a right-wing idiot.

I can't stand to be in a room with deviled eggs or any hard-boiled egg product. Fear Factor could ding me in the first round with an boiled egg product. Weirdly, I adore omelets and am an accomplished brunch chef, specializing in various fancy scrambled egg dishes. As of this writing, no therapist has been able to unravel this mystery. My best guess is that it's because of the smell. But it might be that I was dropped on my head at birth, a theory that explains many other things.



all the clorox wipes have scrambled your brain.

PS, I'll be calling in and using my real name. I never mind telling people IRL that I love DCUM.

I have to disagree somewhat (I wrote that original post). I love WAMU (although Dianne Rehm is getting a bit past her heyday, IMO). I think Kojo stands out from the ret of WAMU/NPR in his mediocrity.

I love Kojo -- tech Tuesdays are a favorite and I have no issues with Adequate.

Tech Tuesdays -- I hate those the most!
