I’m presently on bereavement/vacation leave in Southern California, but I’ll get a break from some other family business today and drop by the Hugh Hewitt studio to air a special edition of The Ed Morrissey Show at 4 ET. What’s the occasion? Starting on Monday, April 4th, the Hugh Hewitt Show will move to morning drive time, 6-9 AM ET, so we’ll talk about all of the changes and all the elements that will stay the same — incisive interviews, the great interaction with listeners, and the Cleveland Browns despair. We’ll have all of that and more with …

• Duane “Generalissimo” Patterson brings us up to date on the week’s top stories and gives us a preview of tonight’s Hugh Hewitt show.
• Hugh Hewitt is traveling today but will try to call in from New York to discuss the new show time, plus make sure I haven’t hoisted the Steelers banner back up in the studio.
