Here are this week's scheduled guests for The Jim Bohannon Show. Be aware that all appearances are to be considered tentative until you actually hear them on the air! Guest scheduling can change at the drop of a hat (and both we and our guests own plenty of hats!).
Monday, May 5
We'll get another visit from the inimitable Arianna Huffington, editor-in-chief of The Huffington Post and author of the new book "Right is Wrong" (published by Knopf). Its premise is that our country has been hijacked by the far-Right wing fringe, which has decimated the Constitution and made us less safe.
We'll also get a return visit from two of the most beautiful voices to pair up in pop music history: Marilyn McCoo and Billy Davis, Jr.! They've got a brand new, interactive CD out entitled "The Many Faces of Love."
Plus, we got a bonus visit from Denise Hitchcock and Joanne Dant to find out what's coming up in the near- and long-term for the TV and internet broadband channel known as Blue Highways TV.
Tuesday, May 6
Well, here we go again—it’s the umpteenth Super Tuesday of this never-ending Presidential campaign. Tonight we’ll bring you results from the states of North Carolina and Indiana, and we'll get analysis from the likes of former Congressmen Dave Evans of Indiana and George Breece of North Carolina, Republican strategist Gary Baise, J.P. Freire of The American Spectator, and Joshua Green of The Atlantic. Be with us as we count the votes and the delegates...who knows, maybe someone will (gasp!) concede!
Wednesday, May 7
Prolific sports author John Feinstein will drop by to talk about his latest opus "Living On the Black: Two Pitchers, Two Teams, One Season to Remember" (published by Little, Brown), which chronicles the 2007 seasons of pitchers Mike Mussina (of the New York Yankees) and Tom Glavine (then with the New York Mets, now back with the Atlanta Braves), two veterans now in the twilight of their careers.
We'll keep with the sports theme of the evening as we speak with Herschel Walker, one of the finest running backs in the history of the NFL. As incredible as it seems, he built that remarkable career while suffering from multiple personality disorder. He tells his story in the book "Breaking Free" (published by Touchstone).
Thursday, May 8
Joining us tonight is a former top U.S. military commander in Iraq: Lieutenant General Ricardo Sanchez. He'll discuss with us his time in that war-torn country, which included the discovery of the mistreatment of prisoners at the Abu Ghraib prison--a situation he says was known to the Defense Department long before the infamous photos became public. His new book is "Wiser in Battle: A Soldier's Story" (published by Harper).
How involved should the Federal government get in the foreclosure crisis? And is this a good time for you to try and sell your home on your own before the bank comes a-calling? We’ll talk to real estate expert Juli Doty, author of “The Secrets of Exactly How to For Sale by Owner" (in paperback from BookSurge Publishing).
Friday, May 9
Progressive journalist and talk host Bill Press makes a return visit to the program to talk about how the political pendulum is now swinging away from the conservatives, propelled by the neocons' betrayal of their own principles. He explains in his book "Trainwreck: The End of the Conservative Movement (and Not a Moment Too Soon)" (published by Wiley). [postponed from an earlier date]
As stereotypes are broken down, women around the world are taking positions of power and influence in greater and greater numbers. We’ll talk tonight with Ritu Sharma Fox, president of Women Thrive Worldwide, an organization tackling women’s issues--particularly poverty--around the globe.
