Upcoming (and Recent) Branson Appearances

Hi folks… John Stanforth here. Those of you who’ve followed my blog this summer have seen me rave about The Daily Show with Jon Stewart as the funniest show on tv right now. So what’s better than watching Jon Stewart? Watching Jon Stewart interview Richard Branson! Indeed, Sir Richard is Jon’s guest this Tuesday, November 9th, on Comedy Central at 8:00pm.

Ironically, the interview to promote the long-awaited two-hour premiere of The Rebel Billionaire: Branson’s Quest for the Best (Tuesday, November 9th, on Fox at 8:00pm) actually runs opposite the show in the same time slot, so, if needed, you could instead catch one of the Daily Show rebroadcasts at 7:00am or 4:00pm on Wednesday.

Those willing to pay for an online conference should check out Linkage’s Distance Learning seminar with Richard Branson, which airs online on November 30th at 11:00am Eastern. Amusingly, looks like even NASA will be tuning in, perhaps to keep an eye on the Virgin Galactic chairman.  

We’ll cover highlights of all the appearances, of course, and will hopefully soon have coverage and video clips from his recent appearances as well:
- Tavis Smiley22 Oct 2004, 11:00pm on PBS
- Good Day Live21 Oct 2004, 9:00am on Fox
- The Best Damn Sports Show Period20 Oct 2004, 5:00pm on Fox Sports
- Jimmy Kimmel Live21 Oct 2004, 12:05am on ABC

If you know of other appearances, by all means, drop us an email at editors @ this site name… quickly! :-)
