On the radio
For those who wish to listen to me and even call in to ask a question or comment or disagree with something I have said, I will be on The Space Show with David Livingston. tomorrow night for probably two hours, beginning at 7 pm (Pacific).
As always, your calls will be welcome. I don’t bite, though as John Batchelor says, I can get grumpy.
In addition, I will be on WCCO-AM in Minnesota to talk space stuff on the next night, March 31st, for forty minutes, beginning at 10:00 pm (Central).
Readers!
Every February I run a fund-raising drive during my birthday month. This year I celebrate my 72nd birthday, and hope and plan to continue writing and posting on Behind the Black for as long as I am able.
I hope my readers will support this effort. As I did in my November fund-raising drive, I am offering autographed copies of my books for large donations. Donate $250 and you can have a choice of the hardback of either Genesis: the Story of Apollo 8 or Conscious Choice: The origins of slavery in America and why it matters today and for our future in outer space. Donate $200 and you can get an autographed paperback copy of either.
Please consider supporting my work here at Behind the Black. My analysis of space, politics, and culture, taken from the perspective of an historian, is almost always on the money and ahead of the game. For example, in 2020 I correctly predicted that the COVID panic was unnecessary, that the virus was apparently simply a variation of the flu, that masks were not simply pointless but if worn incorrectly were a health threat, that the lockdowns were a disaster and did nothing to stop the spread of COVID. Every one of those 2020 conclusions has turned out right.
Your help allows me to do this kind of intelligent analysis. I take no advertising or sponsors, so my reporting isn't influenced by donations by established space or drug companies. Instead, I rely entirely on donations and subscriptions from my readers, which gives me the freedom to write what I think, unencumbered by outside influences.
You can support me either by giving a one-time contribution or a regular subscription. There are four ways of doing so:
1. Zelle: This is the only internet method that charges no fees. All you have to do is use the Zelle link at your internet bank and give my name and email address (zimmerman at nasw dot org). What you donate is what I get.
2. Patreon: Go to my website there and pick one of five monthly subscription amounts, or by making a one-time donation.
3. A Paypal Donation or subscription:
4. Donate by check, payable to Robert Zimmerman and mailed to

Posted this in the wrong thread!
Thanks for the heads up. I’ve never listened to the Space Show live, always via Podcast. But I may try to stay up for this one!
I wish you guys would use a more reasonable time system over there!!! However the WCCO-AM broadcast works out at 6am here, it’s a school day, but ( no promises! ) I may roll out of bed here a little early and roll into work a little late…. Its about time we got to be grumpy voice to voice Bob! ;-)
Lee: The WCCO appearance will not be taking phonecalls, so if you are hoping to ask me a question directly this isn’t the venue to do it.
@ Bob… Unfortunate! I have been trying to catch you on the space show for …. Over a decade? now…. It’s just that bloody time difference!! Can’t you do a show with Dr Livingston at a more reasonable hour for us in Europe? ( I know… it’s a joke… ) Or a weekend show perhaps? In all seriousness your space show slots are my favourite, and it would be wonderful to compare notes on subjects we agree upon, and indeed not to put a face to, but at least put a voice to our discussion. Regardless, I shall be listening to both.
