Our friend Scott Chernoff, remixes pop-culture weirdness (and makes it even weirder) in his new blog series: Smash’d.

Finally, televangelist Glenn Beck comes clean in this Fox News interview looking back on his historic-ish “Restoring Honor” rally at the Lincoln Memorial. Glenn is always riveting, but I’ve never seen him be quite so forthright. Takes him a minute to summon his courage, but the guy really opens up, and it’s quite impressive. Hats off, GB!

And if you still haven’t seen last week’s promo for “Survivor: Old Folks vs. Babies,” you really should get in on that. The tribe has spoken. Etc.

EDITOR: Plus, here’s a bonus video – the second episode of Scott’s new web series, “TV Guide Letter Theater.” This week: “Family Guy’s” Quagmire.
