Coming up this week on DR. BLOGSTEIN’S RADIO HAPPY HOUR: (Live on Tuesday August 28th at 9PM ET and forever archived at BlogTalkRadio.)

The controversy is that Ann Coulter called John Edwards a “faggot.”

Let’s go to the video tape:

I submit that Ann Coulter is a despicable, opportunistic media whore who says things simply for the shock value. This is just another example of her doing this, except this time it’s slightly funny.

I don’t think she was calling John Edwards gay. She knows he’s not gay and frankly I’d be surprised if she herself wasn’t a lesbian.

I believe she was using the word “faggot” the same way fifth graders use the word—to describe someone as a wuss. She was also making a pop culture reference to the actor from Grey’s Anatomy who went to rehab for calling a fellow cast member, who really was gay, a “faggot.”

Call me insane, call me insensitive but I really think she used some good comedic devices in that clip. She made fun of Edwards’ stance on Iraq and she made fun of the ridiculous reasons some celebrities (Isaiah Washington and Michael Richards) enter rehabilitation centers all in one joke. I think it was fairly well done. Plus, as any comedian would be impressed with, she knew her audience. She was speaking to the Conservative Political Action Committee and knew just what would make them laugh.

In this instance and this instance only, I defend her. You may think her joke wasn’t funny. You may think that she should leave the comedy to comedians. But I think she tried to make the audience laugh and judging by the clip, she succeeded.

Okay, now I’m ready for my flogging.

“My Point Radio” of the BTR network went back on the air this morning still glowing from their show Monday night which featured me as their guest.

As you’ll recall, because it was only two days ago and because I wont stop reminding you, I was such a huge hit that Alan Levy, the CEO of Blog Talk Radio, called in to offer me my own show (which will debut next month!)

But back to this morning’s show, click here then go to the player on the right hand side of the page. Press play and fast forward to the 15:40 mark to where they begin talking about yours truly. You’ll here things like David Odeen of “My Point” saying that my appearance was a “huge success” and Jenn of the Jungle of “Screw Politically Correct BS” saying that I have a “great radio voice.” I couldn’t agree with them more!

Keep listening though, because at the 17:43 mark you’ll hear Jenn refer to our Jewish Puerto Rican African Indian American Princess Tisha as a “stalker.” Uh oh! I do hope Jenn knows what kind of wrath she’s opened herself up for!

We may have to settle this when Dr. Blogstein’s Radio Happy Hour debuts in February on Blog Talk Radio!

Have I mentioned that I have a new show coming?

UPDATE 1/19/07 According to David Odeen of “My Point Radio”, my appearance on his show was his most downloaded show ever! He indicates that I “blew away” his previous high.

Tonight at 7:00 PM ET I’m hitting the air waves! As you see in my previous post, your’s truly will be a guest on “My Point,” a live, one hour program carried on Blog Talk Radio. The show can be heard live by following this link: http://www.blogtalkradio.com/hostpage.aspx?show_id=8482 and I believe it will remain archived there forever. Lucky me.

The show is hosted by David Odeen of “My Point” and “Jenn of the Jungle” of “Screw Politically Correct BS” and is a political and current event talk show from a conservative point of view. According to Blog Talk Radio, I’m being billed as a “very funny conservative blogger.”

Now, I’ve always known myself to be “very funny” (though I would have described me as EXTREMELY funny) but as far as being “conservative,” that was news to me. I sure as hell aint “Colmes” but I never considered myself “Hannity” either. I suppose if the hosts keep the discussion on killing terrorists and hating Osama bin Laden I’ll be okay, but if they ask for my views on abortion or whether or not I care about gay marriage, then they may not like me anymore. We’ll see.

According to Odeen’s blog “My Point” they plan on engaging me in conversation about such things “as some of our favorite authors, like Vince Flynn and Brad Thor.” But beyond that, I have no idea what they plan on filling the 90 minutes with. But I’m coming prepared!

• I watched last night’s premiere of the kick-ass, sixth season of 24 in case they decide to talk about that. (For the record, I’d have watched 24 regardless of this interview or not.)

• I watched President George W. Bush’s interview on 60 Minutes that aired last night.

• I bought a newspaper, though truth be told, I haven’t read it yet. (Anything happen that I should know about?)

• I re-watched Saddam getting hanged (or hung?)

Hopefully, that will be enough to keep me interesting. If not, please be my safety valve. Its a “call-in” show so feel free to call in. The number is (347) 996-5948. Call in, say hi, join the discussion, start a new discussion, whatever.

And also, feel free to use the comment section below to let me know how I’m doing, what I should do, how I did, how smart I am, how you want my body, whatever.

UPDATE! 1/16/07: My appearance on “My Point”, including the CEO of BlogTalkRadio offering me my own show, can be heard here…
