Lewis Black Is No Militant

There's no other way to say this without sounding kind of dorky. But truly, live radio is a crap shoot; you never know what you're going to get. When a less than complimentary caller gave his not-very-best to Lewis Black, Lewis Black gave his best, right back. This has been passed around a bit -- and in video, because you can really see the wheels turning. A great radio -- now video -- moment.

Lewis Black Live!

On Tuesday (the day we read from your emails... I'm sorry, I just can't hear those two words together without filling in the rest), comedian and author Lewis Black joined us in big ol' fancy studio 4A for an hour long chat with Neal. Lewis managed to fit a lot into the conversation on his book, Me of Little Faith, which is ostensibly about religion... From the airlines, to Ben Stein and George Carlin, and back around to... dwarf worship?

Neal later quipped, "We're talking with Lewis Black and we just learned which of the dwarfs he worships. Dopey." Good stuff. Check out the podcast for the full show!
