Talkers gather to, well, talk

Thursday night on California Connected (KCET, 10 p.m.), host Lisa McRee will guide a discussion about talk radio among John Kobylt of KFI's "John and Ken" show, Marc Cooper of KPFK's "Radio Nation" and out-of-towners Roger Hedgecock (San Diego), Eric Hogue (Sacramento) and Melanie Morgan (San Francisco). Already, the California Connected website is running a Web salon on the topic. The televised show repeats Saturdays at 3 p.m. and airs on the radio on KPCC at 10 p.m. on Sundays.
