Seder On Sunday, today and next week only.
Today all new interviews with authors- pre recorded! Next week will be my last Sunday show. It will also be all new interviews (or mostly all new, not sure yet- regular listeners know I can't get enough of the Shock Doctrine by Naomi Klein). Anyway, I will probably jump on air live at the end of next week's show.
On the show today.
Christine Wicker - The Fall of the Evnagelical Nation: the Surprising Crisis
Inside the Church
Joel Kovel - The Enemy of Nature: The End of Capitalism or the End of the
World?
Mark Crispin Miller - Loser Take All: Election Fraud and the Subversion of Democracy,
2000-2008
Ha-Joon Chang - Bad Samaritans: The Myth of Free Trade and the Secret History of
Capitalism
Robert Auerbach - Deception and Abuse at the Fed: Henry B. Gonzalez Battles Alan
Greenspan's Bank

Sam,
You should get the 3-6P time slot here on AAR. Eventually Green is going to run out of celebrity friends to sub, and this is getting kinda old for me anyway. I don't want a show that celebs use to promote their next engagement, I want a real progressive talk show host and some consistency. I think you have earned the right to give Rhodes a run for her money and compete in that time slot. Your shows improve with each new one, and I appreciate the depth into which you address issues, and think you do a great interview.
I will definitely miss the only live show on Sunday. I was growing accustomed to looking forward to not hearing a rerun. You also brought a new perspective to the issues even though they had already been covered through the previous week by other hosts.
I would also be curious to compare your ratings to Mark Green's and wonder if he should not be firing himself.
