This week, we're all about change: change the Majority Leader, a change of life, loose change, and more. Our guests are The Campaign Stop's Jim Geraghty, (read his new book The Weed Agency: A Comic Tale of Federal Bureaucracy Without Limits) to discuss the political earthquake that happened this week, and Kevin Williamson, who stops by to talk about Iraq, his transgendered controversy, and capitalism and Catholicism -- will the two every agree? Also, Lileks play a little Name That Tune. Help the guy out in the comments, won't you?

Music from this week’s’ episode:

Lola by The Kinks

EJHill is off this week.

    Cantor Hear Me Knockin ?

    Horrible misuse of "Lola" conflating Laverne Cook ( or is it ((was it)) Cox ?). There is just not enough play of " Permanent Wave" . One of their great tunes. I say this having just coached my niece on what to eat and how to watch things in New Orleans. She didnt know who Ray Davies was, but she did recognize the word "Kinks" .

    One question from clinging flyover country: Is LBGTQ a new network ? What channel is that on Primestar ? Can't Kevin answer that question or were those the call letters from his pirate radio station from Lubbock ?

    They should read the confessor series by terry goodkind.

    The first book is called wizard's first rule (spoiler, the rule is: People are stupid)

    Terry is an out and proud objectivist and it starts getting pretty blatant come about book 6.

    So blow up atlas shrugged into 11 fantasy novels of the same length, with a little more moral nuance.
