Coming up this week on DR. BLOGSTEIN’S RADIO HAPPY HOUR: (Live on Tuesday September 25th at 9PM ET and forever archived at BlogTalkRadio.)

Dr. Blogstein will play the role of 24’s Jack Bauer in a dramatic recreation of a scene featuring actor Fred Griffith.

Griffith emailed Dr. Blogstein last month with a desire to stop by the Radio Happy Hour. Blogstein agreed when he noticed that Griffith had “CTU Doctor” from season 3 of 24 on his resume.

Also rocking the Radio Happy Hour, Jesse O, the first artist signed to a newly formed record label call Twist.

The twist is that this label is a Sony/Columbia and LOGO network joint venture to create the first-ever major record label catered to gay and lesbian music artists. We’ll find out if there is a market for gay music, how it different from straight music and whether Jesse O thinks that this label will end up labeling him.

All that plus, Dangerous Lee, Vinny Bond drags his big leather couch into the Radio Happy Hour lounge and chats with the listeners, Justin the Weatherman with his forecast and your calls at 646-652-4804. And if that isn’t enough, one lucky caller will be tasered!

Dr. Blogstein and Jane will welcome Robert Salaam to the show. Salaam, who evidently didn’t have a hard enough life growing up in America as a black man, decided to further complicate things by converting to Islam. We’ll shoot the Shiite with him about his religion, the War on Terror and his views on the Muslim characters being portrayed on Fox’s 24.

Joe Franscella, Managing Editor of The Ripon Record will share exclusive and breaking news concerning “Father Felony“ Randall Radic before it hits the morning paper.

Also, Dr. Blogstein and Jane will reveal which of the story endings that they listed here and there are indeed true and which were just made up.

Plus, much, much more including your calls at 646-652-4804.

Join us Tuesday night at 9PM ET or 3AM Belgium time. And if you miss us then, we’re forever archived at Blog Talk Radio. You’re not going to want to miss this!

THE MAN BAG

Made popular by Jack Bauer in season 5 of 24, this versatile accessory is a must have for all men on the go.

Though roundly ridiculed and laughed at, The Man Bag is as functional as it is stylish. Ofter called a “messenger bag,” The Man Bag gives men the opportunity to carry their daily necessities and important belongings in an over-the-shoulder fashion that up until now, only women enjoyed.

Whether its today’s Wall Street Journal to read on your morning commute or sophisticated weaponry to save the world, The Man Bag is an absolute must for today’s man.

So, everyone, ignore the finger pointing and obnoxious snickering, and forget for a moment that your buddies are questioning your sexuality and join me in a hearty Dr. Blogstein salute of The Man Bag.

For those of you who watched the Golden Globes last night instead of 24, please redirect yourself here. Everyone else, read on:

Holy Crap! How is Jack Bauer getting out this one? They nuked LA! Those bastards!

Last night’s episode of 24 was the best two hours of television since Geraldo went into Al Capone’s vault. I was up until 2 AM just thinking about it. What it takes other series (serieses? Seri?) two seasons to do, 24 did between 9:45 and 10:00 PM last night.

TWO series changing events. Bang! Bang! One after the other. If you saw it, you know what I’m talking about. If you haven’t seen it, you’ll either see eventually or don’t care, so I wont bother to go into great detail. But, I am wrong? AMAZING!

But also scary! The terrorism depicted in the first four hours of Season 6 is probably our worst case scenario, but that just means that it is indeed a scenario thats considered possible. Yikes!

As you heard at the end of last night’s show, the bad guys have four other suitcase nukes waiting to go off in a city near you. Are you the kind of person that’s curious as to what would happen to your city if it was hit by a nuke? Well, just like people with foot fetishes and the members of the International Badminton Federation, there’s a website for you too: http://meyerweb.com/eric/tools/gmap/hydesim.html

UPDATE 1/17/06: Here is a reaction to the first four episodes of 24 from a real life Muslim. I always find this guy’s point of view very interesting. He’s level headed and wise and proves it time and time again.

**An all new Vince Flynn interview when he returned to the Radio Happy Hour on Tuesday night October 6, 2009 at 9PM Eastern. Just click –> Vince Flynn.**

Our intrepid hero Jack Bauer has literally been on a slow boat to China since May. We wont find out his fate for another 3 months.

Luckily, the perfect “appetizer” to the Emmy Award Winning series comes out of the oven next week. While there is nothing in the world that can match the thrills, twists and excitement of 24, author Vince Flynn comes pretty damn close. So close, in fact, that Flynn worked on last season of 24 and is now collaborating with the creators of 24 for a pilot of his own.

Flynn’s new book, Act of Treason, hits bookstores on Tuesday. I’ve had mine preordered from Amazon.com since July! I’m that excited for it.

Believe me when I tell you that a Vince Flynn reading experience is like no other. His main character, Mitch Rapp, is as fearless and tough as Jack Bauer. Where Rapp has Bauer beat is in his ruthlessness. Rapp is more of a fan of a violent death for the bad guys than Bauer’s more professional executions (if there is such a thing.)

If you’ve never read a Vince Flynn book before (or any book for that matter), I have a feeling this is one I’d feel comfortable starting you off on. Just judging by how the last book ended, Mitch Rapp is sure to have a giant chip on his shoulder and a craving for some ass kicking!

(By the way, you’ll notice that I’ve used the terms “appetizer” and “craving” and the phrase “out of the oven”–Is there any doubt that I skipped lunch today?!?)

Do me a favor and read Act of Treason then come back here and tell me what you think. Its good stuff and I look forward to you telling me how right I am!
