Dr. Fate was a comic book hero who dabbled in the mystic arts way before Dr. Strange did. Created by Gardner Fox & Howard Sherman, Dr. Fate's powers always perturbed me somewhat - he tended to have whatever spell was necessary for solution of the plot - & his origins were vague enough that there have been half a dozen other Dr. Fates (since the powers come from the helmet, which is possessed by a being called Nabu) since then whose abilities & adventures rely upon whomever is writing the story at the time. I still think he's pretty cool, though.
But Dr. Fate has nothing whatsoever to do with tonight's show. Tonight's show is based around the fact that next month I'll be going on the Fates Ahoy Captain Of Your Own Destiny Voyage Of Self Discovery hosted by none other than the Reverend Doctor Howard Gently! Not only will he be on the show to talk about the cruise, but also I'll talk to three people who took the cruise last year! Plus, you know, tons of songs about fate.
It's on tonight on 93.9 fm WLXU in Lexington from 9-11pm eastern time. It's also on Lexington Community Radio dot org at the same time, which happens to be 8-10pm central. Perhaps it is your fate to listen?
