[ailsagirl]

17. Would we be so lucky?

Doubt it!!

[Control-Z]

4. Last Word doesn't usually air on Fridays. n/t

[BumRushDaShow]

5. Tweety announced that it WOULD air tonight. n/t

[Control-Z]

18. Well, that is great news!!

Fridays have been unbearable with the Lock-up shows. Who watches that crap?

[JI7]

6. will they air it at 10pm pacific time also ?, they really do need to give him Friday show regularly

he is a unique voice. just look at the reactions to the debate, he was able to offer a difference perspective from his own experiences.

7. Ezra Klein is co-hosting with someone tonight.

[JI7]

8. ezra is ok as a guest, but so far i haven't been able to get into it when he is hosting

[JRLeft]

10. I do not like him as a host, but as a reporter or analyst he is pretty good.

[jsmirman]

11. Ezra is the perfect person to host a post-jobs report show

this is the stuff he shines on.

[Indpndnt]

13. He seems like a numbers wonk. Is he?

If so, he'll make it all more understandable. Which never hurts.

[jsmirman]

20. I'd go with yes, seeing as his WaPo blog is called "Wonkblog"

[Indpndnt]

21. Oh.

I didn't check out his blog. I keep forgetting about blogs. I'm still trying to catch up with tweets.

So, I'm a bit behind. Don't judge me.

[jsmirman]

22. No judgments

it's just that being a wonk is kind of his shtick, and he's pretty darn good at it.

[Indpndnt]

24. I was kidding. ;) But, honestly, he's new to me. And he's definitely excellent at it.

9. Is there something big going on?

The show usually doesn't air on Fri.

[ailsagirl]

15. Right-- that's why I wanted to alert DU

BUT looking at the tweets more closely, I see that Ezra Klein is the guest host.

12. I stand corrected: Ezra Klein will be the guest host

[Bozita]

14. My Comcast cable guide list 10pm ET as another Tweety Hardball show

[ailsagirl]

16. I know-- mine said that too

I'm assuming the text of the tweet I posted is more current

19. Ezra is hosting a special edition of it tonight. Awesome!

Wish they did it every Friday as Lawrence has to travel back home for the weekend.

23. He was awesome tonight

Loved the piece he did on health insurance and how many people would be left uninsured with Romney's plan. Scary stuff!
