TODAY'S SHOW: FRIDAY, APRIL 25TH 2008
White House counsel Fred Fielding almost died this week. What nefarious beast nearly took his life? Lamb testicles! Well, it may not have been the testicles exactly but that's what was being served at the well attended all-male, all-Republican bash Fielding was attending when he choked. Luckily the Heimlich maneuver was administered and Fielding lives to defend Karl Rove another day.
On today's show Rachel will be talking to New York Times reporter Eric Lichtblau about his new book, Bush's Law: The Remaking of American Justice
MENTIONED ON TODAY'S SHOW
The policemen who shot Sean Bell were found not guilty of all charges
Hillary goes after McCain for saying that we should bulldoze the Lower Nineth Ward in New Orleans
Will Bagdad finally be getting what it needs most? An amusement park? (For cultural reference, read Rachel's recommended reading, Pride of Baghdad)
New format
I agree with RevDeb. A good compromise would be to separate the podcast into three parts, one for each hour like Stephanie Miller does. I watch the tv machine and see the program, so find it verrrrry annoying to have to listen to it again. Also, the music is so loud and the pace so fast, I get a headache, just not meant for the podcast.
Also, please consider doing the full two hours of news like you used to do. Tonight, only one hour and it includes an interview. Never listen to the 3rd hour when you are not on it. Bender is knowledgeable but there is a reason his shows haven't made it. He is boring.
I, too, have been with AAR and you from the first minute. They have been on two stations in Sacramento, now they are on none. I got Sirius when the first stopped airing AAR, now not on Sirius so I have XM, it is getting expensive to stay with AAR. You are the last one I listen to and that is really getting difficult.
