Conservative talk show host Rick Amato will use California not as a backdrop, but apparently as a long drop to the ground tomorrow when Washington Times Radio broadcasts from a Zeppelin while in flight. Let’s hope it’s not the Hindenburg or of the Led Zep variety.
Amato predicts the experience will be surreal and says "it will be the first time a radio show has been broadcast while in flight."
The theme of the show is "As California Goes…So Goes America: What Does the Golden State Tell Us About the Nations Future?"
If our great state is an accurate forecaster of our nation’s path, that may be scarier than a free fall.
Amato’s guests include Hollywood Actor Robert Davi, California Republican National Committeeman Shawn Steel, and State Board of Equalization Member Michelle Steel. Governor Arnold Schwarzenegger is also invited. Rick will have to clarify whether the guests will be aboard or calling in safely from the the Capitol while he smiles down on them.
The show will air live and early, 5 a.m. to 8 a.m. Pacific Standard Time on about 40 radio stations across the country and can be heard on-line at http://washingtontimes.com/.
The needed wireless technology is being provided by San Diego based WSradio.com.

To those who have already emailed: Yes, yes, I do know that the cover artwork from the first Led Zep album and the Hindenburg are one in the same.
BTW, LZ 1 is still the best of their releases, even better than the unnamed #4.

Barry is quite correct that LZ 1 was the best. How Bob Plant maintains his voice when most of his peers have died is amazing.
1000 high above LA with Rick Amato broadcasting in a moder,spacious better designed Zeppelin is a rare experience. Was joined on board with moon walker Buzz Aldren.
Talk about “new media” the show went live via two cell phones and a bootstrap studio on board.
