Brian Micklethwait is going on ‘internet TV’, which should be interesting. I recall Brian once telling me that he thought he had a ‘good face for radio’. Check it out and hear what he has to say.

Who Are We?The Samizdata people are a bunch of sinister and heavily armed globalist illuminati who seek to infect the entire world with the values of personal liberty and several property. Amongst our many crimes is a sense of humour and the intermittent use of British spelling. We are also a varied group made up of social individualists, classical liberals, whigs, libertarians, extropians, futurists, ‘Porcupines’, Karl Popper fetishists, recovering neo-conservatives, crazed Ayn Rand worshipers, over-caffeinated Virginia Postrel devotees, witty Frédéric Bastiat wannabes, cypherpunks, minarchists, kritarchists and wild-eyed anarcho-capitalists from Britain, North America, Australia and Europe.

Just taken a gander at this web TV on the new 18 Doughty Street site, all this from 3,000 miles away in Brooklyn NY, NY. Have to say it is looking good, I even got to see some real debate that lasts long enough to get a grip on an issue. Funny that, at last there is a sound meal not just a bite. This is the way to go for the future of TV for me. As frustrated consumer I literally viewed this show as a huge step forward.
I suspect this is the end of cable, dish and broadcast TV as we know it. For years I have put up with biased bovine garden improvement substances from the big guys in TV. Cable isn’t much better, you are stuck with a package of stations that you sign up for, most you just don’t want but you have to haven them just to get what you do want. Soon that won’t be an option for these Stetson and Spurs people in the TV entertainment business. Down loaded TV is so so much better as I have the possibility of a real choice at last.
Keep on trucking, roll over the whole of big TV asap.
I liked the bit where Brian created the word “gayness”!
Live internet TV is looking like great fun – BBC et al are too polished.
I think Brian is right 😉 At least the internet TV picture is small enough to spare us the worst!
There is a politically connected woman in the Milwaukee area who has gotten considerable radio airtime, albeit later in the evening, altho she has a great voice for blogging.
