This week’s show has no particular theme—no holiday content, no political audio, no real agenda. Actually, maybe that’s not true. The last song kind of sums up what I hope this week’s show (and all of ‘em, for that matter) is—fun fun fun! Damn, that’s kind of corny. But I’m finishing this show a bit later than usual, there’s the premiere of “Boardwalk Empire” and Monday Night Football to watch so I’m keeping this short. Enjoy!

Sonic Overload 9/3/12
Labor Day already and, as is the tradition, there are plenty of songs to mark the day. Of course, last week was the Republican convention. I didn’t include any audio because I wanted to make this an enjoyable show. But, man, what a revolting group of people, from the top down, and they believe in policies that are overtly hostile to working and middle class people. Members of teachers, firefighters, police and other unions who perform invaluable public services are made to look like thugs and ingrates. Things like Medicare, Social Security, safety regulations, even civil rights regulations are on the table with some of these characters. Not that the Democrats are all that much better but they at least pay lip service to people who aren’t super-wealthy or white.
Enough of that—I have a BBQ to attend to. Next week, the 11th anniversary of the September 11 attacks will be noted but it’s not going to dominate the show. I think I’ve expressed my feelings on the issues surrounding the attacks and the aftermath over the years but there’ll still be a remembrance.

Sonic Overload 8/27/12
Plenty to talk about this week, right from the outset—Republican Congressman Todd Akin, who’s running for Senator in Missouri, shows some tremendous ignorance about women’s reproductive systems, as well as regressive viewpoints on the matter of reproductive choice and the latter applies quite a few other Republicans, as well. Meanwhile, their white pride rally, uh, convention happens in Tampa this week and it appears as though they’ve dodged a bullet as tropical storm Isaac will be missing them. I guess God’s looking out for them, unlike those heathen in New Orleans. I recall that when Hurricane Katrina hit that city, Pat Robertson said it was God’s punishment for abortion. Unfortunately, as I type this, it looks like New Orleans is going to get nailed by this storm, as well. So, yeah, I talk about politics a little more this week, but you’ll be happy to know it still doesn’t dominate the show—but I might as well take advantage of my punk rock soapbox.
