TODAY ON THE BBC

Today on the 400th episode of my pal John Barnes' UK radio show, we chat about cupcakes, the rare and stinky tropical Corpse Flower, Great White sharks off the coast of LA, World Cup 2010, and arresting Hollywood Blvd. superheroes.

The show runs every Wednesday at ten o'clock (22:00) in the UK, and my segment is about ninety minutes into the show -- meaning you can hear it in the U.S. at about half-past three, Pacific Standard Time.

You can listen on the internet at BBC Lancashire; look for John's show in the daily schedule, or just click the "Listen Live" link around three-thirty today, PDT.
