Podcast

Mary and Freddie reunite after the long holiday weekend. We discuss the inherent unfairness of the political process. Do we need to create"citizen corporations"so that ordinary folk can get access to our politicians? Also, stem cell research will NOT, we repeat, will NOT lead to cloning...Slippery slope arguments are bogus, dontchaknow. We also venture down that fun but ultimately"unproductive"road of speculation about George Bush's intentions. Also, Deep Throat, our friend, Splotchy, Amnesty In...

Mary sings the preamble to the Constitution (which is mercifully short) to prove that Liberals are right about everything. The rest of the episode is spent exposing the war in Iraq for what it is (illegal), Karl Rove for what he is (a traitor), and Don Sundquist for what he isn't (competent to chair the President's Medicaid commission). Freddie will sing next time....

The all-star break is over! We are ready for some baseball! An emailer wrote:"Please ease up on bashing the Right Wing, Conservatives, Neo-Cons, or whatever."No. That's our job. He also challenged us to"Please out the"Right Wing"radio by detailing their outright lies."Well, OK. If we must. Plus, the new Supreme Court Justice nominee. And why we're pro-choice....

Liberadio(!) - We're Right, They're Wrong, Let's Sing!

Still shaken by the recent attacks in London, we discuss terrorism, terrorists, and US foreign policy. Also, the"I"word, Governor Don Sundquist destroys TennCare and all he gets is to be the chairman of President Bush's Medicaid Commission, and what exactly is a"theory"anyway?...

Liberadio(!) - Mystery Bush Theater

So, Tennessee has this broken health care system that our Governor has decided to"save"by dis-enrolling over 300,000 people. Protestors decended upon the state capital last week and they're still there! Lori Smith, TennCare enrollee and advocate, calls in to give us an update on the good ol' fashioned sit-in. Also, if Kenneth Tomlinson has a public radio blacklist, sign us up! (42:34, 9.8 MB)...

We want our apology. From Bill Frist. Jeb Bush, Rick Santorum, Dick Cheney, Condi Rice&the Southern Baptists. Were the Downing Street Memos doctored before they went to print? Of course not! But a good way to find out would be to have a freakin' congressional hearing. Hearing! Hearing! Hearing! (47:21, 10.9 MB)...

Liberadio(!) - Oh, Those Senators from Tennessee, part 1

The manipulation of the American People by the Bush Administration continues. There is no debate on the importance of the Downing Street Memo on this show. IT'S IMPORTANT, dagnabbit. And what does going to the UN have to do with the price of tea in China? Also, our motto is quickly changing from"It's the hypocrisy we can't stand"to"follow the Money."It's not new but it sure is appropriate. In this part of the show we take more calls. From smart people. And we KNEW they were out there. (28:39, 6....

Liberadio(!) - Oh, Those Senators from Tennessee, part 2

We start the show by asking forgiveness for shopping at Wal-mart and promise a trip to buyblue.org fave, Costco, the next time guest co-host Jim Bessman is in town. Bessman, a former Hillary Clinton-hater tells us how he got turned around. We take a call from a guy who, by calling Mary"sweetheart"while calling Jim"Sir,"proves that misogyny is alive and well and living in the south.Also, special guest Liz Garrigan, editor of the Nashville Scene, tries to explain the concept of the"nuanced journal...

Liberadio(!)

(Rough start. We missed recording the beginning of the show) It's a bad day for Senators from Tennessee. Along with 14 other Republicans and one damn Democrat, Lamar Alexander refuses to acknowledge the corrective resolution for failing to ban the act of lynching in the Senate. We try and figure out a reason why and get yelled at by a caller who insists that we are just like the 'screaming tightie righties' on conservation talk radio. What-EVA... Bill Frist, another Senator from Tennessee, owes ...

Liberadio(!) on WRVU-FM - June 2, 2005

Hey, heard about"the memo?"We have. And we won't shut up about it. (www.downingstreetmemo.com). Is"cockahoop"an FCC violation? Splotchy finally gets to the bottom of why it's so creepy when President Bush speaks. Mary doesn't get to play George Galloway's testimony in its entirety :-( but she does break it down. For more info, go toWikipedia.org. Also, a fillibluster roundup, on-air pinky-bets, an impromptu visit from a neighborhood kitty, and the Big Gay Agenda. TRUCKNUTZ!...

Our first podcast in a real studio! We talk about the memo, the memo, the memo! The Secret Downing Street Memo (seewww.downingstreetmemo.com) And the Fillibuster debate. It's not really about the fillibuster. It's about the complete absence of ANY KIND OF BIPARTISANSHIP from the Bush Administration. We also check in with a Regular Joe who comes up with quite a reasonable idea to"fix"social security. Thanks, Regular Joe!...

Not much going on, really. Only Justice Sunday, the nuclear option, the fillibuster, Rush Limbaugh is a big, fat red boil just waiting for Al Franken to lance him, Harry Reid kicks ass, Robert Novak is a liar, James Dobson is a hypocrite, and TruckNutz!...

Freddie and Mary discuss Senator Frist and the nuclear option, the right-wing power grab, the attack on our country's judiciary, and the new Pope. Unfortunately our discussion about TruckNutz (www.trucknutz.com) was not recorded. No worries, though, as I'm sure we'll be talking about them again. I still think truckboobs is a great idea. Please excuse the part at the end where all hell breaks loose and we try and take an on-air call. The loud dial-tones and feedback is really quite obnoxious and ...
