Plus it's too much work to get laid by women with jobs and responsibility. I stuck with my Friday and Saturday night dance party show which attracted the freaks and other of that ilk.

The show will be called "Devil's Advocate" and the premise will be that whatever people call about, I will disagree with them.

And I picture your radio show being more like Prothero in V for Vendetta. | |

| Spare me, but if I get through, I will consider it a wrong number.

Then I'll take the opposite view and argue FOR homosexual marriage.
People listen to talk radio for the arguments.

Level up: 32%, 122 Points needed | | If done right that does sound like a great radio program. You could teach, through example, various discussion and debate techniques to the American public. You could show how discourse can be manufactured (as it is by you everytime someone calls) and probably start a lot of listeners listening for fallacies. Because they know it's bullshit and the challenge is to call you on your bullshit. | |

The best debaters (modesty forbids me to mention any names) are able to argue the opposite case just as persuasively as what they actually believe.
