"Wanted Dead or Alive" at Boston University

Apparently my talk the other week at Boston University's International History Institute was rebroadcast last night on WBUR Radio's World of Ideas show.  

I haven't listened to the show yet, but from what I recall, the talk itself went very well.  I just hope my voice didn't come off too nasally on air, although the engineer said I had a perfect face for radio . . .

The MSNBC Interview . . .

In case you missed it, here is a link to my interview last Friday on MSNBC's "The Dylan Ratigan Show."  I think it went fairly well, and fortunately, I did not have to participate in the panel on the debt ceiling.  (Ironically, the last song on my car radio as I arrived at the train station Friday morning was Bon Jovi's "Wanted Dead or Alive," which I took as a positive omen).

Media Alert: Friday, August 5

I will be on "The Dylan Ratigan Show" on MSNBC tomorrow afternoon (Friday the 5th).  Given that I'm going to be on a panel with a writer from The Nation, an unsuccessful Democratic candidate for Congress, and a novelist/essayist who covers Hip Hop for Rolling Stone (and claims conservatives opposed to the rapper Common being invited to the White House so they could prevent President Obama from receiving credit for killing bin Laden)*, I doubt my book or counter-terrorism will be the primary topic of conversation.

But given the lineup I've outlined above, I think it should be high entertainment value regardless!

*Actually, conspiracy theories aside, Toure sounds like one of the coolest people on the planet.  I will not try to appear to be anything but the hopeless square that I am when we are on together.
