Dallas' favorite muckraker, Jim Schutze, will be live on video at 4 p.m. Wednesday on the Observer's Facebook page.

Schutze tells us he plans to demand the return of witch burning, explain why he insists on calling the Margaret McDermott suspension bridges fake and address any other topics on readers' minds. So, tune in and fire away. Any question is fair game, like, "Who cut your hair?" or "Did you cut it yourself?" or "Dude, seriously, what's up with that haircut?"
