Diamond Jim was once a guest on the old "Radio Racket." I should run that interview on the Cockroach if he passes away...

Say a prayer for Diamond Jim.

Like Radio Racket, it will likely air at 10 PM on Fridays.

But it'll be nothing like Radio Racket. In fact, I will say that neither George nor Jeff had any involvement in this idea... it's all mine...

Stay tuned. I hope to fill you in on what I am talking about later this week...
