Tornado Alley (PROG)

[F6]

Jeff Sharlet on tonight's Coast to Coast AM -- main guest; will be interviewed and take calls during the latter 3 hours of the show, from 2am-5am ET/11pm-2am PT (with weekend host Ian Punnett, an ordained minister who is by far the best, most intelligent host the show currently has; it's only the weekend shows with Ian that I even bother checking to see what's on anymore) -- this 3 hours with Jeff Sharlet will be the first long-form appearance of his that I've heard of, and should be quite something -- hope to find a transcript, or perhaps even a replay (doubtful), available somewhere or other in the coming days:
