* The setup is from a press release…
Rod Blagojevich Inks Deal to Host the Launch of ‘The Late Net Show’
The groundbreaking program, which will be taped in New York in front of a live studio audience, will air exclusively on the Internet.
More on the once-a-month program which he appears to be hosting just once for now…
The show is said to run 40-minutes and includes a monologue, a live band and celebrity guests.
“We’re in talks with Donald Trump, Alec Baldwin and Floyd Mayweather to be guests on the show,” Charlie Oliver, artoftalk’s founder told the Sun-Times.
Viewers will be able to vote on segment ideas for Blago’s stint, including having him sing Elvis tunes, recite poetry or movie monologues or dole out advice.
* The Question: What guest would you most like to see debate the Rodster? Explain.
And, of course, snark is heavily encouraged.

I’d like to see Chuck Norris debate him. With nunchuks.

This isn’t April 1st is it?

Explain, please.

Patrick Fitzgerald, preferably in a courtroom.
Comment by Anon Wednesday, Jan 13, 10 @ 10:41 am
OH - Please, let it be either the Octomom or Jon Gossling.
Nothing says schlocky television quite like those kinds of D list guests. Blagojevich would be the “king of the has-beens”.

Eliot Spitzer and Mark Sanford… for reasons which should be obvious. They could debate whose scandal was the worst.

Or he and Sarah Palin could read excerpts from one another’s books (like Palin and William Shatner did on Letterman).

Lisa Madigan because I want to see him lose it and call her the C word.
Comment by wise guy Wednesday, Jan 13, 10 @ 10:46 am
it would be Charles Whitman.

Machiavelli, because he appears to be one of Milrod’s heroes.

Oprah

Richard Heene (baloon boy dad) they could commiserate about how all these “misunderstandings” happen.
Comment by Duke Wednesday, Jan 13, 10 @ 10:53 am
Heeeerrrrreeeesss Blago! Rod’s guests tonight will be Rich Miller and Michael Madigan with a mixed media performance by The Courts of recorded phone conversations. We will be right back after this special message from Panda Express.

Steve Brown, hands down!

Pat Quinn. Rod needs a win.
Comment by Bill Wednesday, Jan 13, 10 @ 11:04 am
Dick Mell. We could then call the show Family Feud.

How about the Grim Reaper on loneliness?
Comment by A Citizen Wednesday, Jan 13, 10 @ 11:14 am
How about Kramer from Seinfield, then George could come on with his squirrel, remember no 2 animal acts on 1 show “this isnt amateur hour”. The three of them would be a great comedy piece. We can have Newman too, why not ??
Comment by Stallion Wednesday, Jan 13, 10 @ 11:27 am
Rod should debate Rod, in split screen. That would not be any stranger than anything else he’s done.
Comment by Old Milwaukee Wednesday, Jan 13, 10 @ 11:47 am
Joy Behar, because of the goofy questions she’d not doubt ask him, and the goofy answers he’d give.
Comment by Champaign Dweller Wednesday, Jan 13, 10 @ 11:59 am
Paula Abduul, because the two of them could reason with each other.
Comment by One of the 35 Wednesday, Jan 13, 10 @ 12:43 pm
Mike Tyson. i’m thinking if rod couldn’t hear himself talk, maybe — just maybe — he’d stop talking…
Comment by bored now Wednesday, Jan 13, 10 @ 12:49 pm
Jesse Jackson Sr for the first half of the show and JJ Jr for the second half. The three could discuss dignity and honor in Illinois politics!
Comment by Geneseo Gent Wednesday, Jan 13, 10 @ 1:57 pm
I deleted the names; but several high profile, linked individuals sitting around drinking truth serum laced liquor while discussing the senate seat and how to win in politics would be highly entertaining and enlightening.
Comment by TiredofGamesmanship Wednesday, Jan 13, 10 @ 4:28 pm
Bonnie Hunt. I still smile thinking of their encounter on her show.
