I got a call from the Cultural Affairs Director - asking if I could babysit the
Cultural Affairs Outreach - The Sunday Morning Show (10-Noon) - today…..I said sure, why not….

Typically, this show “captivates the Bay Area with exclusive music and interviews of local and national hip-hop and rap artists. Recent guests include Gravediggaz, Coolio, Craig Mack, Boogie Monsters, Champ MC, and Artifacts.”

Well…we did have a request for Grandmaster Flash - a listener first asked if I had any special effects to talk the way I do - I said no. Then he requested Grandmaster Flash - a mentioned that this group was performing in the Bay Area this weekend. Which is right - they’re going to be at Kelly’s Mission Rock, this Saturday evening.

….since the elections were around the corner, I figured, why not do something a little more political. So invited the Free Speech Director and the Co-President of the Berkeley ACLU to talk about their organization, the 39th Anniversary Celebration of Free Speech on the Berkeley Campus - which is featuring gubernatorial candidate Larry Flynt, and free speech.
