Next time, Ed, invite Mary Katherine Ham over. No offense to the Generalissimo, love his work, but he’s not exactly eye candy. :-)

Ed, you were kidding?

I was taking careful notes on the care and handling of the Generalissimo.

[...] Duane “Generalissimo” Patterson, and the contractors have already started doing the heavy repair work, so we’ll have to go with a repeat of yesterday’s review of Sarah Palin’s speech, [...]

Well, I did have Amanda Carpenter on twice. Ed Morrissey on September 5, 2008 at 1:14 PM

Yes Ed. you did the Yin without the Yang. (I'm just joking with you Ed, my job here is comic relief.) Here She is. Friday September 5, 2008 Hour 3 The Young Guns: Mary Katherine Ham 10:56/35:20

"I'd like to go shooting with her sometime." -MKH

That's the good stuff.

I love your humor, Ed. Kick back and relax, you deserve it.

Never send food back to the Chef, you’d need a food taster for the rest of your life. Just helpful advice.

I thought ~~celebrities~~, erm, stars, were to be reviled?

But the most enlightening experience came from hosting a true legend in the radio business at my house this week — Duane “Generalissimo” Patterson, producer (and he tells me, the actual star) of the Hugh Hewitt Show.

Who?

Well, I did have Amanda Carpenter on twice. Actually, I only saw MKH once, at that was at the Lileks bash. I’ll see what I can do to get her on the show next week.

Ed Morrissey on September 5, 2008 at 1:14 PM

Not a requirement Ed, but she’s been such a staple at Hot Air, that the readers expect it. It’s kind of like tuning into MASH expecting Col. Blake and finding Col. Potter – it’s still good, but not what you thought you’d find. Or more to our reference – Yellow shirt Kirk, vs. that lame open collar, lime green shirt Kirk. Bleh.

Now a show FROM the Lileks blast would have been over the top. But that would be tougher than getting Heart to allow “Baracuda” to be played at the RNC…

Anyone who prefers spongebob over Bugs Bunny deserves nothing but scorn! You should have kicked him out, immediately!

And I concur on the dearth of MKH.

I think the Generalissimo deserves the extra attention, because once a year he gets unmercifully tortured at Disneyland for the sake of his country, his radio career, and his sacred honor. I salute him for his sacrifices.

According to his rider at smokinggun.com no RED M&Ms either. Ed, Ed, Ed. Dealing with the talent... primadonnas! Anyway, you couldn't push him off to Lileks? Then again, he talks to Duane once a week and might have seen that one man wrecking crew coming. And I concur on the dearth of MKH.

Thanks for the laugh Ed. Have a great long weekend.

I arrived late into the show yesterday so much will be new to me.

Ed, you’re lucky you didn’t have to have dwarf jesters on hand for the visit. They’re tough to find on short notice.

Ed.. thanks for the on-the-spot-reporting and the live chats as well during the speeches..

Generalissimo is a typical left coaster. And he needs DIET Mr. Pibb.

I agree with Mad Jack…. No MKH the whole WEEK?

those hotels fortunate enough to host Aerosmith or The Who have seen.

Ed with long hair? Now that’s an interesting idea, he’d fit in well with Spinal Tap. Obviously, he’d play guitar.

Ed I was very disappointed in your RNCC coverage. I neither saw nor heard MKH on your show. Sir I expected more from you. The EMS has been my primary source for MKH after her move to her new position. Hopeful you will make restitution and book MKH ASAP.
