Sunday morning radio; is there anything good on?

[OnionPatch]

So I have to clean house and love listening to talk radio while I'm doing it. Usually I listen to Thom Hartmann at the 24/7 WhiteRoseSociety stream, but that stream does not seem to be working anymore. (Hey, maybe someone else can try it out for me and see if they are having problems go here http://www.whiterosesociety.org/Hartmann.html and click on the "listen to this stream here" If you get something, I must have something wrong with my computer.)

So, besides Air America, what is there good to stream on a Sunday morning?

(Edited to correct the day of the week.)

check their archives

also, check out the most excellent "Moment of Truth" with Jeff Dorchen

http://www.mejeffdorchen.oblivio.com/archives.html

my favorite, in which he calls the Bush admin a government by publicity stunt

http://www.mejeffdorchen.oblivio.com/moments/moment_beans.html

''Yet there's really no finite supply of publicity stunts. In fact, the art of governing has become the art of producing publicity stunts. And a really good policy maker is a guy who can come up with an engine for producing a long chain of publicity stunts that seem to follow logically from one to the next, based on some kind of principle or other. Like "family values" or "the strong, independent American." Or "Jesus is Lord." Or "poor people just don't have what it takes." Or "War on Terrorism."

Now go back to FDR. I don't know why, I just see his policy-making as more authentic. I'm no historian, obviously. But I just I don't see the New Deal as a series of publicity stunts. Certainly FDR's attempt to manipulate the makeup of the Supreme Court was fascistic. But was it a publicity stunt? Maybe I'm wrong, but the jobs programs seem like a genuine attempt to get money, food and housing to people who didn't have any by creating jobs the corporate sector was unable or unwilling to provide.

Oh, and that's a little historical mini-mystery in itself. Why was capitalism doing such a piss-poor job of creating a decent standard of living back then? Was the corporate sector suffering from an inability to monopolize resources? To concentrate power? Is that why they couldn't give 30% of Americans jobs? What exactly was hampering them from getting that bicycle moving? Was there a magic bean shortage? Did the Dust Bowl wipe out the magic bean crop? Were there too many regulations on the production and use of magic beans? Was Big Government hoarding all the magic beans or giving them to welfare queens with eight Cadillacs?

Whatever the answer, we're stuck with being governed by publicity stunt organizers until someone has the guts to take some genuine action. Or, hey ... maybe re-electing Bush will make that magic-bean bicycle thing work. Yeah, sure. That's the ticket.''

7. I usually listen to KEXP

Sat and Sun 9:00 till noon EST they run Mind over Matters. It beats watching the talking head shows on the TV machine, they make me too angry. If you miss it, they archive the latest show on the website.
