I’m traveling to CPAC today and will be off-line until tomorrow while I wing my way to the nation’s capital, so I won’t have a live show this afternoon. Instead, why not take a new look at last month’s interview with Lt. Col. Gordon Cucullu (USAF, ret) about his new book, Inside Gitmo: The True Story Behind the Myths of Guantanamo Bay? We had broadcast problems on the day it aired, but the show plays just fine from the recording. We will need to get Lt. Col. Cucullu back soon to talk about events that have played out since then.
In the second half, I interview the Admiral Emeritus on his long career in the space program. I had a great time chatting with him about his recollections of the various programs on which he worked. I’m sure you’ll enjoy it as well. We will also have the live chat room, so feel free to jump in and talk about whatever is on your mind!
Now you can join the conversation in the chat room! Be sure to register at Ustream to participate in our raucous live-chat sessions. (And if the log-in prompt doesn’t come up in the chat box below, use this link instead.) Jazz Shaw of The Moderate Voice moderates the chat, and he has his Troll Gun Trivia Contest running before the show, for those who get there early — and are registered!

This post has been up for nearly three hours and mine is only the second comment. Incredible.
I hope that mean everyone who saw this post aleady has bought the book. If not, you ought to buy it, read it, and look through his supporting evidence on the web site, InsideGitmo.com; there is a lot about our troops there and what has really gone on at Gitmo that you should know.

Purchased! Thanks for the heads up. Keep adding to your bookshelf.

I read “Inside Gitmo” a couple weeks ago and found it full of interesting facts. It is not a well-edited book as it tends to be repetitive. They could have pared it down ten percent and gotten to the point quicker. The third quarter of it is slow. However, the last quarter of it which deals with the habeas lawyers is excellent.
Don’t expect a novel here, but it does give most of the facts on Gitmo. It could have gone in more about the legal status of the detainees with respect to the Geneva Convention, but it’s still worth reading.

Good interview. Unfortunately, it cuts off abruptly at 27 minutes.
