If you're coming to New Canaan, CT on Sunday to hear Charlie Gasparino discuss The Sellout you might need to bring your boxing gloves.
The other day on Chicago-based radio show StocksandJocks, co-hosted by CNBC contributor Dr. J Najarian, a listener asked Gas-Bag if he was ready to handle a confrontational room of ex-Bear and Lehman traders who might want to throw down fisticuffs. Considering many of these guys are still unemployed, stuck with McMansion mortgages, and with ample time on their hands - we thought that was a valid concern. (Sam Molinaro, former Bear Stearns CFO, is a New Canaan resident.)
The show's other host Tom 'the Chief' Haugh asked Chaz, "Are you ready for a scene or a verbal confrontation? How do you think Cannanists will receive you?"
Gasparino responded, "Well you know, they can do whatever they want. What, you don't think I've never had a personal confrontation from peeps on Wall Street? For some reason personal confrontations don't scare me that much...you know.. I know how to handle myself."
"I'm not a punching bag I don't take their [shit]. I remind them it was their company's management that screwed up and I just reported it. I didn't engage in your risk taking practices. If you think I have anything to do with your implosion then you're nuts," Gasparino. said.

Chaz also added that anyone offering to buy him a drink after the talk will be out of luck. "I tell them, 'No thanks, I don't accept beers from people like you'."
New Canaan library event manger, Cynde Lahey, says they are expecting the Gasparino event to hit their overflow limit-they can only fit 250 in the room- so if you plan to give Chaz a piece of your mind, get there early.
