Podcasting Liberally - May 30th, 2006

I could have ranted all night about Seattle school closings, but my fellow panelists threatened to bound and gag me. And so we invited 43rd Legislative District candidate Lynne Dodson onto the podcast to act as a kind of informal stopwatch on the subject. Lynne, a teacher herself, graciously gave us 15 minutes of her time, and I wasted most of it ranting. In an informative and entertaining manner, of course.

Joining me (Goldy) and Lynne in our weekly, liquored up lecture series were Mollie, Will, Carl, Lee and eventually, Gavin. Topics of discussion included school closures, immigration, Bush's base betrayal, Will's obsession with escalator etiquette, why Republicans aren't funny, US atrocities in Iraq, and the WA State GOP's proposal to reinstitute slavery. And of course, we reminded everybody to go see "An Inconvenient Truth" this weekend.

The show is 1:00:49, and is available here as a 38.8 MB MP3.
