We’re gearing up to unveil the first-ever KSK podcast, which is all but certain to give you an earth-shattering eargasm. But, as a prelude to that, I recently joined radio host, author, and extremely righteous liberal Dave Zirin on his XM radio show to make fun of Rick Reilly and to unleash my incredibly nuanced and original “black voice.” You haven’t heard Afro-centric parody this subtle since “Amos n’ Andy”! Or “Amos and Andrew,” for that matter.

We also unveil all the chapter titles for MEN WITH BALLS, each one wackier than the last! Zirin and I then act out one of the phony dialogues from the book. I wanted to do the section where I’m the athlete and he’s the baby momma, but he wasn’t down with that. Whatsa matter, Zirin? NOT PROGRESSIVE ENOUGH TO PORTRAY THE MOTHER OF MY BASTARD CHILDREN?!

Cut out from this interview was the following exchange between Zirin and I:

Zirin: Scoop Jackson has this HUGE family.

Me: Lotta typos in that family.

Scoop Jackson, it would appear, has powerful friends in the radio business. And they know how to work ProTools! I’m stunned.

My portion of the audio begins at the 8:00 mark here.

NOTE: A reader emailed to let me know Amazon informed him his copy of the book was set to arrive earlier than anticipated, on 10/16. So, if you’re one of the many imaginary people out there who want to read the book before its official 10/27 release date, you can order it at Amazon and probably have it this week. Because who likes to prolong disappointment?
