For the next two days, we will be merging The Ed Morrissey Show with the Northern Alliance Radio Network, as I will appear in person at the Minnesota State Fair for AM 1280 The Patriot from 5-7 pm CT each day. We’ll live stream the video and have the chat room open, so be sure to join us! Tonight, Mitch Berg and I will discuss the events of the day, the economy, and whatever is on a stick at the State Fair.

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 and The Monster moderate the chat, and they have Troll Gun Trivia Contest running before the show, for those who get there early — and are registered!
