And in those particular shows it's quite clear that you have gotten an expert on each side of the issue. I enjoy hearing them spar off together. I usually learn a lot. I enjoy these shows better than the ones on the bailout, because I've been listening to a lot of NPR lately and every NPR show is talking about the bailout, so I hear the same stuff over and over. It's nice to hear in depth coverage of these other extremely important issues. I have found those shows really helpful.

However, given what's going on in the world I think you should consider both hours devoted to these types of shows and wait for a slower news day for shows on novelists or even Paul Newman, whom I am a huge fan of. It just seems odd that, while Rome burns, we're talking about this other stuff. I would certainly like Fridays to be two hours of weekly review.
