Shatner
Glenn taped a full hour with William Shatner that will be played back on TV tomorrow night, and it was a compelling interview. Compelling in the 'hey, look at that train over there that just derailed' sort of way. The two hotly debated for the whole entire hour and were able to come to a middle ground on exactly nothing. So, Glenn asked Mr. Shatner on radio this morning what was the truth...does Shatner love or hate (or neither) Glenn Beck? Read the transcript here, Insiders listen to the entertaining audio here.
Modern Dating
Stu, while reading the Dupont Registry, noticed an interesting advertisement for a match-maker company from Chicago. Glenn, being a famous rich guy, sees the value in the company because of how difficult dating must be for that type of person. Stu says it makes love too mathematical. Glenn talked to the owner of the company Barbie (real name) Adler to find out exactly what you get for the $20,000 sign up fee for her services.

Tax Free Hypocrisy
Glenn's newest CNN column posted at CNN's website is all about how the liberal institutions that are cranking out leftist pro-tax liberals don't seem to fond of being taxed themselves.
