(Don’t worry–it’s not an Ancient History lecture)
Wahoo! Here’s the audio of my interview with Del Eldred on his talk radio show yesterday.
Okay, I’m listening to it, and it doesn’t sound any worse than usual (gee, I wish I could do a Richard Burton voice!).
Anyway, here it is–and I hope you enjoy it.
(No wonder she’s so tired… Please tell us she didn’t lay those eggs.)
Well, I’ve done the interview with Delmer Eldred, he’s invited me back in January so I must’ve done all right–and now I’m really tired, I think I want a cigar.
You wouldn’t think being interviewed was hard work, but sometimes it is… especially when you’re really trying hard to reach the audience. And it’s been years since I’ve done this.
After he edits the tape, Mr. Eldred will send me a link to the show so I can post it here and you can all listen to it. It’ll be on both AM and FM radio out in Washington State. I wonder if my voice sounds any better than it did.
For the time being, I need some rest and then we’re going to visit our town’s Halloween decorations. And at least one more blog post after that.
Ed Begley Sr. recalled a time one night when he was on Broadway, performing in Inherit the Wind, and when he went to deliver his lines, “I opened my mouth and nothing came out but garbage!”
Out of practice for several years, I’ll be doing an interview this morning and I hope it turns out well. I have one advantage over Mr. Begley: this won’t be live radio. Mistakes can be edited out.
Now I’ve got half an hour to bone up on the subject that the host wants to discuss–my recent writings on government’s insatiable desire for more and more power over us. The tactics are different from what they were in 50 B.C., but the objective is always the same.
So pour a cup of tea and get to work! Hurry up, you’ve only got a half-hour to get ready…
It was eight years ago, but I think this is still the best interview I’ve had–largely due to the thoughtful questions asked by Chalcedon’s Andrea Schwartz. Here’s the audio for the whole thing, about 23 minutes long. I apologize, in advance, for my slow way of talking. As for my voice, it’s ideally suited for mime.

At the time, I had three Bell Mountain books in print, with No. 4, The Last Banquet, ready to go to press. Here in 2018, I’m waiting for No. 11, The Temptation, to come out, and writing No. 12, His Mercy Endureth Forever.
How many more to come?
As many as God gives me to write.
