Sherman Baldwin, the Sarasota Republican party’s right-wing-ish wing man, has invited me to be on his show later today — 5:15 this afternoon.

I’ll be on for about a half-hour, just chatting about my new column for the TICKET (entertainment) section of the Sarasota Herald Tribune, about this year’s Reality Readers All Faith Food Drive, this little blog, and my recent four-year win as a Creative Loafing “Best of the Suncoast” writer — among other things — hmmmmm… maybe we’ll chat about Sarasota’s Mayor stepping down after his current term … or major league baseball players in our midst … or maybe I’ll weigh in on why the ‘Noles are going to kick some Gator rumpus on Saturday.

Want to tune in or call in and tell me why I’m full of crap about the big game (or anything else, for that matter)? It’s am 1280 on your radio dial … on the Internet, just double-click here: Talk Sarasota Radio with Sherman Baldwin. To call in to the studio and talk to me live — just call 954.1280 anytime between 515 and 545.
