Faking Brilliance on Television

I appeared on AM Northwest this morning to chat with Helen Raptis and Dave Anderson about The Pocket Guide to Brilliance. (Boy, I look a bit smarmy, don’t I?)

To view the video, link through the photo above or here and scroll to the icon reading “Faking Your Way to Brilliance.”

Smarminess aside, see if you can guess where in the interview we start receiving off-screen directions that time is running out. (I blame this for my overestimation of Thomas Jefferson’s intellectual openness.)
