Podcasting Liberally - July 18th, 2006

Oh, what happens when Goldy is away. The older crowd gets the reins. Lynn gathered together a gang of political and social activists from the Vietnam War era who are still active locally and we talked about activism then and now and how activism gets transmitted across the generations. Joining Lynn were Don Hopps of The Institute for Washington's Future, Alice Woldt of the Washington Association of Churches, Michael Hood of the blog, Blatherwatch, and Howie Martin of the blog, Howie in Seattle. We discussed the demise of political parties, the impact of right-wing consolidation of the media, the impact of the blogs and much more.

The show is 53:43, and is available here as a 33.4 MB MP3.
