Audible Althouse #50.

The 50th podcast is ready to download or stream.

Freddie's dead, smoking'll kill you (and make you glamorous), shallow fictional characters (and the authors who hate them), the women's studies sociologist who became a prostitute and why the Washington Post is writing so much about it (and what it's not saying), John McCain's lack of awareness and spontaneity while giving a commencement address at The New School, the promotion of movies by stirring up bogus controversies, and wondering how sweet or harsh to make my own writing.

I envision Simon Cowell, front and center at McCain's speech at the New School. Cowell chides McCain with: "You had your chance to have a moment and instead you just drove through your lyrics without any feeling whatsoever."

Veil your barbs. It's much classier.

Congratulations on your "gold" podcast. Or is 50 diamonds? Who the hell made up those anniversary-gift correlations anyway?
