Kamran Pasha is a brave man. He knows that Sherry Jones’ book, The Jewel of Medina—about the birth of Islam—lost its initial publisher in 2008 because of the ruckus it stirred up. He knows that filmmaker Moustapha Akkad—who created the 1977 movie The Messenger, about the Prophet Muhammad—was killed by terrorists in 2005. He knows all about the decade-long fatwa by Ayatollah Ruhollah Khomeini against Salman Rushdie for writing The Satanic Verses. And yet I hold in my hands his just published novel, Mother of the Believers. It is the story of the Prophet Muhammad told in the voice of his young wife, Aisha. Pasha is also a writer and producer on the NBC-TV drama series “Kings” starring Ian McShane.

We're back! After a somewhat lengthy hiatus during which we were busy with, er, some other things, we've returned with a long-awaited next episode. Maybe someone was awaiting it. Anyone? Hello? Whatever. In this week's Foody Goody Session we feature Round 2 of our Who's That Word: Competitive Eating Edition contest. If you've forgotten during our absence, the point (yes, there is a point) is for each of the others to guess the meaning of Warren's nominated technical term from the competitive eating world. Riveting shit, let me assure you. In what other show can you get references to the Bible, Seinfeld, dropkicks, the laws of Physics, wet bread, and a reacharound all at once? Not many, I guess. I wonder why not? If you know, email us (maskedman@limitedappeal.net). Theme music courtesy of General Patton vs. The X-Ecutioners and Ipecac Recordings.
