Deadspin
This morning, on The Howard Stern Show (a.k.a., the show you used to listen to all the time until either: a) he left for satellite radio, which you don't get; or b) he got divorced from his wife, draining the show of its subtle, mostly hidden pathos), Jose Canseco was a guest. And Pat Jordan, author of the gripping story about Chasing Jose for us, called in and chatted.
We can't say it was necessarily "enlightened discourse," but hey, it's radio. As you'd probably guess, Canseco is not pleased about the story, which means, of course, it's a pack of lies. After all, it's Jose Canseco, a beacon of truth and justice. You can hear the Jordan-Canseco clip right here.
And if you want to hear the whole interview, here's the whole thing in five parts:

Best part of this morning's show? When Jose said he only accepts film offers that allow him to do martial arts.
I did a complete double take this morning when his wife said she went to USC and not junior college.
Well, hello there, Jose. (Tee, hee.)
@TheStarterWife:
USC isn't a junior college?
@grungedave: Only for film majors.
I missed it, but did Jose successfully catch enough hot dogs in his mouth to get the implants?

Tom Crean to be named Indiana head coach tomorrow.
@grungedave: nope. but stanford is a junior university.
/dumb cal fan joke
I loved it when Benjy smacked him in the behind with a fish.
@TheStarterWife: On behalf of Jose:
Martial arts are systems of codified practices and traditions of training for combat and are linked to spiritual or religious beliefs/philosophies such as Buddhism, Daoism or Shinto while others have their own spiritual/non-spiritual code of honour.
Now don't you feel like an asshole?
/I kid
@TheStarterWife: I got a big laugh from her insistence on getting a degree from USC, but not clarifying what exactly she received the degree for.
Unless USC's just handing out donor degrees, which wouldn't surprise me.
Thank God for truth-tellers like Canseco and Sinbad.
What to listen to on Sirius tonight:
8:00. Jose Canseco Interview re-air. Howard 100.
8:00. Tony Stewart Live: Listener Appreciation Edition. NASCAR Channel 128.
9:15. NCAAW. Rutgers @ Connecticut. 127.
haha, Will listened to Howard Stern for "hidden pathos"
This might have been mentioned already today (if so, apologies), but Rob Neyer mentioned the Pat Jordan article in his marathon chat yesterday:
"... you can get roughly the same window by reading Pat Jordan's recent piece about Canseco (I can't tell you where to find it, but you'll figure it out)."
So, tWWL ban on Deadspin, still in full effect.
Anyone else think it would've been a way better interview if Sal had called in PRETENDING to be Pat Jordan?
Oh yeah, dropping loads all over Jose Canseco!
No one asked Jose if he does anal though? Very disappointing.
FWIW - Canseco hung up on Boomer and Carlton on WFAN yesterday because they weren't respectful to him.
The audio can be played on WFAN.
Team Heidi. She is a human audio highlight reel. A monstrous gestapo? I'm pretty sure she has NO idea what that means.
"JC college graduate"...Junior College college graduate?
@iantenna: Actually, that's an awesome Cal fan joke.
For the uninitiated: "Leland Stanford Jr. University is the finest Junior University in the country."
