Brutally Honest on ShockNet - 11/29/08 Show Notes

So how was your Thanksgiving? Mine was good. I seemed to spend most of the day either cooking or cleaning afterwards, but the end result was what mattered, and my turkey feast was great!

But...*sniff-sniff* is there something funky in the air? Maybe not in your home... certainly not in mine... but it's there nonetheless.

What is it?

Well it could be that something that smelled from a certain sales event. Something so retched that it should make everyone stop and think about what it is. Or it could be the sour discussions concerning a recent election. Maybe it's something reeking in Washington? Or perhaps a certain court case?

Either way, we'll get to the root of it all by the time the show ends.

All of that is TONIGHT (11/29) over at ShockNet Radio starting at 7pm Eastern Time, 6pm Norman Time, and you can listen in either through ShockNet's streaming server, or through Apple's iTunes radio in the "Talk/Spoken Word" or "Classic Rock" categories.

Brutally Honest... the new heresy begins here!

Why I don't trust polls!

Here it is boys and girls... why I take all polls with a grain of salt and so should you!

Great Black Friday Deals Here!

Happy hunting!

Happy Thanksgiving everyone!

Just wanted to wish everyone a safe and fulfilling Thanksgiving Day!

And be sure to catch my show this Saturday at 7pm Eastern, 6pm Norman Time, here at ShockNet Radio!

Who could use some extra money? We all do!

But do the people who get that money deserve it? Certain groups really don't.

Tonight I go over those groups that are getting billions in bailout money from our government and spell out what they should be doing to get it.

PLUS, tonight I go over some unusual feedback I got concerning the recent elections, and I give you the lasted in news from the wire services.

All of that is TONIGHT (11/8) over at ShockNet Radio starting at 7pm Eastern Time, 6pm Norman Time, and you can listen in either through ShockNet's streaming server, or through Apple's iTunes radio in the "Talk/Spoken Word" or "Classic Rock" categories.

By the way, next week I will be on vacation for my birthday, so next Saturday's show will be a repeat. What will RJ air next week? You'll just have to tune in to find out. Also the archives to tonight's show will be uploaded this coming Wednesday, so those of you signed up with Apple's iTunes free podcast will be getting it just a few days earlier than usual.

Brutally Honest on ShockNet - 11/08/08 Show Notes

It's (almost) over with except for the crying.

It is hard to believe that it is finally over with. The election that couldn't get here fast enough finally did, and now it's over with.

There are still 3 U.S. Senate races to be decided, but for the most part the 2008 Presidential Election is finally in the bag, and it literally was one for the history books. We know who won. But there were also some folks who lost and they lost big-time, and I'll go over those losses tonight on my show as we churn out the "Political Quick Shots" one last time for 2008.

Plus, there's a certain political bogeyman that has popped back up into talk radio. What is that bogeyman and why does it even get under my own skin? Find out tonight.

Then finally I give my postmortem on the party that lost big-time this past Tuesday. Why did they lose? Who is really to blame for it? And what can they do to fix thing for the better for themselves the next time around?

All of that is TONIGHT (11/8) over at ShockNet Radio starting at 7pm Eastern Time, 6pm Norman Time, and you can listen in either through ShockNet's streaming server, or through Apple's iTunes radio in the "Talk/Spoken Word" or "Classic Rock" categories.

Reason: If you think that's bad...

Now you know why their arguments fell flat.

Luckovich: Bygones?

You know, it was much easier for Zig Zag Zell Miller to bash his own party in 2004, and he did it with far more vinegar than Lieberman.

But then again Zig Zag Zell wasn't planning on going back to Washington afterwards. Maybe Joe should have kept that in mind.

I would love to see that happen.

History was made

History...

Whether you wanted it or you didn't...

Whether you voted for it or you didn't...

You cannot deny that history was made at 11pm Eastern Time last night. America woke up this morning to the reality that (in all likelihood because it is still theoretical) it WILL have a new President of the United States in January of 2009, and that President will be a black man, the son of a Kenyan father and a Kansas mother, by the name of Barack Hussein Obama.

Conservatives cannot deny that fact any more than liberals can deny Barack's middle name.

Obviously the turnout will be the dominant subject of my show this weekend, but I just wanted to get those important digs in.

And yes, I DID vote yesterday. And I WAS watching at 11pm Eastern as well as chatting on the phone with my good friend from ShockNet Radio, RJ Evans, when history was made. No didn't vote for Obama (I voted Libertarian), but I still will not deny the fact that he did earn his victory.

Sad news

The site that had been in operation since 04/01/1996 is no longer in operation.

AOHell strikes again.

Dear AOL Hometown Users,

We're sorry to inform you that on Oct. 31, 2008, AOL® Hometown has been shut down permanently. We sincerely apologize for any inconvenience this may cause.

No, I'm sorry, but I really don't think you're sincere about that, AOL. I really don't. If you WERE sincere, then you would have offered to find ways to move those web pages over. Instead you arbitrarily KILL the program and then claim to be "sorry" about it.

I only have two words to say, America Offline:

PHUCK YOU!

Brutally Honest on ShockNet - 11/01/08 Show Notes

Whew! Talk about busy these last few days!

First, of course, I had to take time away from working on my show to put up a special "War of the Worlds" anniversary article and then promote it on Current TV. Then I spent some time uploading my Halloween Show early to the Internet Archive for people to listen to. Then RJ sent over an early birthday present in the form of some tools that will allow me to run phone calls through the sound board so I can do telephone interviews (look for that soon). And then I'm having to sort through a lot of the news stories about the election to see what will stick.

Is it over? Almost.

Tonight's show will spend most of the time putting both Barack Obama and John McCain through a more REALISTIC filter. What would America be like with either of them winning the election this Tuesday? Set aside the hype, set aside the lofty dreams, and let's see what will happen. I think some of you may come away from this a little disappointed about what the future will hold, no matter which one of those two wannabes wins.

PLUS... Sarah Palin plays the "poor victim" card, a Palin "pal" goes down, a disturbed supporter pulls a "Mort" act, ACORN is nuts, and Obama's infomercial is either sink or swim for his campaign. (Times like these make me glad that I'm a real libertarian.) AND I have a special rant for YOU the American people to top it all off on this Super-Sized EXTRA-LONG show! Yes I'm going into OVERTIME! I hope RJ doesn't mind...

All of that is TONIGHT (11/1) over at ShockNet Radio starting at 7pm Eastern Time, 6pm Norman Time, and you can listen in either through ShockNet's streaming server, or through Apple's iTunes radio in the "Talk/Spoken Word" or "Classic Rock" categories.
