PPR Upcoming Schedule

The last episode with Lee Culpepper as a guest was fantastic. He was knowledgeable and courteous, even when Mrs. Pistachio allowed her psychology background to get into the conversation. Thank you, Mr. Culpepper. It was a pleasure having you. Check out that episode HERE.

And I have got quite a schedule coming up for you, my faithful listeners to Political Pistachio Radio:

June 2: Cary Cartter of "It Is Obvious" and 2008 Presidential Candidate will be joining us to discuss politics, the war, and his bid for President of the United States.

June 9: Rob Ballister, Author of the book: God Does Have A Sense Of Humor will be on the show to not only talk about his book, but his incredible story regarding surviving cancer. Due to the recent news of my son being diagnosed with cancer, this definitely hits home.

June 16: Gary W. Moore, the author of Playing With The Enemy, comes back for a second PPR installment, and this time he is bringing along with him his publisher, Ted Savas. Perhaps Gary will have more news regarding the motion picture being filmed regarding his book! And on this episode we will give away two autographed copies of his books to two lucky Political Pistachio Radio listeners. Rules are: E-mail me a question you would like me to ask Gary, and the two best questions will be asked on the show, giving full credit to you (as well as a plug for your site), and you will receive (should you be the winner of one of the two questions that I and Mrs. Pistachio choose) an autographed copy of Gary's book, Playing With The Enemy (free of charge to you - publisher will also pay shipping and handling!) Oh, and until the show with Paul Couturier, the first interview with Gary W. Moore held the record for the most listened to PPR show. This will prove to be a very informative and enjoyable show.

June 23: Jeff Edwards, author of Torpedo, which is reminescent of Clancy, but in my opinion is better than most of what Clancy has ever written, will be our guest. Jeff is a retired U.S. Navy Chief Petty Officer, and an Anti-Submarine Warfare Specialist. He is currently working as an expert civilian advisor to the Naval Mine and Anti-Submarine Warfare Command, and Naval Space Warfare Systems Command. A combat veteran, Jeff is a recipient of the Combat Action Ribbon, the Navy Commendation Medal, the Armed Forces Expeditionary Medal, campaign ribbons for Operation Desert Shield/Desert Storm, the liberation of Kuwait, and numerous other medals and citations. His naval career spanned more than two decades and half the globe - from chasing Soviet nuclear attack submarines during the Cold War, to launching cruise missiles in the Persian Gulf. Trained extensively in mainframe computers, weapons systems, and naval combat tactics, he brings an experience-based edge of authenticity to his writing. His novel, Torpedo was the winner of the 2005 Admiral Nimitz Award and the 2005 American Author Medal. Torpedo has recently been optioned by film producer Paul Sandberg (The Bourne Supremacy). Jeff is hard at work on his next novel, a naval thriller tentatively titled ‘The Seventh Angel.’ This is one episode of Political Pistachio Radio you don't want to miss!

June 30: Bob Anderson heads a grass roots effort for change - to re-Americanize America. What Are We Fighting For? is based on the tenets that the founding fathers of this great nation believed in their actions, and their actions matched their words. He believes that each citizen is required to earn and fight for his/her continued freedoms and the privilege of living in the United States of America. His organization believes that circumstances on both the global and national levels have conspired to create a set of conditions in which the liberties and freedoms won by our fore fathers and guaranteed by our Constitution are being and will continue to be eroded by special interest groups, rampant and uncontrolled illegal immigration, political agendas and biased news agencies more concerned with creating news than reporting it. His organization wishes to ignite, not inflame, that great “silent majority” of Americans that want to see this country return to its roots, protect its citizens and their rights to free speech, freedom of religion and those "unalienable rights to life liberty and the pursuit of happiness." Bob Anderson is a retired military man from the U.S. Air Force Reserve. He retired as a Chief Master Sergeant in 2006 with over 32 years of service. His last mission was a six month tour of duty in Iraq in support of Operation Iraqi Freedom. While there, he served as the Chief Enlisted Manager of the 732d Expeditionary Security Forces Squadron. He was responsible for two law enforcement detachments and 32 military working dog teams. His 221 person squadron was scattered among 21 different locations throughout Iraq. While there, he traveled over 6000 miles in country in support of his troops. Bob’s military career has many highlights, including holding various positions, the most recent include the honor of serving as the Command Chief Master Sergeant of the 147th Fighting Wing at Ellington Field, Texas Air National Guard; as well as the Security Force Manager of the 917th Security Forces Squadron, Barksdale AFB, Louisiana. He received numerous awards and citations including the Bronze Star, Meritorious Service Medal/ 3 devices, Air Force Commendation/1 device, Air Force Achievement Medal, Global War on Terrorism Service Medal and the Iraqi Freedom Medal. Bob is the founder of What Are We Fighting For?™, an organization focused on re-Americanizing America. He is also president of Back To Basics International, a professional speaking and training organization focusing on excellence and accountability. Bob is a published author and holds two Ph.D.’s. He is on the board of directors of the World Safety Organization, and a member of multiple associations including the National Speakers Association, Air Force Security Police Association, Air Force Sergeants Association, Air Force Association, American Legion and Veteran’s of Foreign Wars (VFW).

July 7: Paul Ibbetson is a published author and lecturer on the Patriot Act. He is a former Chief of Police of Cherryvale, Kansas, and member of the Montgomery County Drug Task Force. Paul received his Bachelor’s and Master’s degree in Criminal Justice at Wichita State University, and is currently completing his PhD. in sociology at Kansas State University. Paul is the author of the book “Living under the Patriot Act: Educating a Society”, as well as director of the “Patriot Act Research Website”.

July 14: John Bootie will be our guest. He is an Independent candidate for President. He is a grass roots conservative who is tired of politics as usual. He will discuss his campaign, and what he plans to do for our country if he was elected as President of the United States of America.

Indoctrination of our Children

Join my guest, Lee Culpepper, and myself (along with Mrs. Pistachio) tomorrow on Political Pistachio Radio as we discuss the indoctrination of the youth of America through secular progressive teachings. We will also discuss the voucher plan that has been so far defeated by liberalism out of fear that it may make our schools actually have to compete with private schools, the teacher that decided to show Brokeback Mountain to her 12 year old students in Chicago, the teen accused of a hatecrime and jailed without bail for distributing anti-gay pamphlets on campus, and a whole plethora of issues affecting both us and our children as it pertains to the agenda to change America!

Are you ready for the truth? On Political Pistachio Radio the truth will be told!

Our guest, Warren Lee Culpepper, is currently writing his first book, Alone and Unafraid: One Marine's Counterattack Inside the Walls of Public Education. Additionally, he is a contributing columnist for The North Carolina Conservative, MichNews, The HinzSight Report, The Publius' Forum, and Culpepper: Marine Teaching Maniac.

Paul Couturier on PPR

Political Pistachio Radio is growing by leaps and bounds. Numbers are getting higher with each episode (though I have to admit the archive record held by the show with Gary W. Moore in April still stands unbeaten).

On Saturday, May 19, 2007 PPR welcomes Paul Couturier as our special guest. Paul's angry letter to the Democrats in Congress, Anti-war activists, and the Mainstream Media was posted on May 5 of this year at Kit Jarrell's Euphoric Reality. Click Here to read the letter.

Paul has been serving in the Army National Guard for 26 years. He served in Iraq as a part of Operation Iraqi Freedom from 2003 to 2004. He is looking forward to answering not only my questions, but the questions of PPR's listeners. He only asks that you remember he is still serving in the Guard so sometimes he will need to choose his words carefully. He is forthright and honest regarding the war, but will not place the troops at a disadvantage in any way, shape, or form.

To call in and join the conversation the phone number is: (646) 652-2940. You may also instant message me questions on Yahoo Messenger, ID douglasvgibbs.

Looking forward to the show. Tune in at www.blogtalkradio.com/politicalpistachio.

Exciting things are coming up for PPR

Political Pistachio Radio is moving up into the next tier by landing some very important guests. Here is the schedule coming up for the show:

Saturday, May 19, 2007 4pm Pacific/7pm Eastern, Armed Forces Day, we have a proud veteran of Operation Iraqi Freedom, and a founding member of Catholic Veterans Against Kennedy, Kerry, and McGovern. Paul Couturier will be our guest to discuss the ongoing war in Iraq - and be aware, he is far from being politically correct.

Saturday, May 26, 2007 4pm Pacific/7pm Eastern, we will have Warren Lee Culpepper who is currently writing his book, "Alone and Unafraid: One Marine's Counterattack Inside the Walls of Public Education" on as a guest to discuss how our children are being indoctrinated in public schools. He is also a contributing columnist for The North Carolina Conservative, The HinzSight Report, The Publius' Forum, and Mich News dot com.

Saturday, June 2, 2007 4pm Pacific/7pm Eastern, we will have Cary Cartter of http://itisobvious.blogspot.com - or as some of you know it: I'm Thinking of the "O" Word (I meant Obvious, what were YOU thinking?). He will be on the show to discuss Election 2008, his write-in candidacy, and what is needed to return our nation to Conservative Values.

Saturday, June 9, 2007 4pm Pacific/7pm Eastern, myself and Mrs. Pistachio will carry on as usual - but who knows what guest may land on this episode.

Saturday, June 16, 2007 4pm Pacific/7pm Eastern, Gary Moore of "Playing With The Enemy" may join us (waiting for final affirmation). He was interviewed by Political Pistachio Radio on April 7, 2007 and that show has been the most listened to of all PPR episodes. He will be back the day before Father's Day one year prior to the release of the Major Motion Picture release of the movie based on his book about World War II, Baseball, and a field of broken dreams. Maybe we'll be able to get him to tell us who the big star is that the movie landed for one of the starring roles! Tune in and find out.

Saturday, May 12, 2007

After nearly two hours. . .

the show on May 12, 2007 finally wound down - and it was a good one (if you can tolerate my loud sound effects). Tune in at Blog Talk Radio to listen to the archive.

When Liberalism adds the straw that breaks the camel's back

This Saturday Political Pistachio Radio will return to its normal time at 4pm Pacific/7pm Eastern. I will address the latest on the political war over the war on terror, more Global Warming lies, liberal lunacy, a little more on abortion (such as how Nancy Pelosi has been told by the church not to call herself Catholic anymore because of her pro-abortion stance), how Mexico is strong against Central American Illegal Aliens, America's pursuit of "Pleasure", and how I wound up in a head-0n struggle against the illegal alien issue on my job (including a statement in Spanish against me by a Mexican that proclaim "Our Community, Our Rules." How will I get this all in during a one hour show? Tune in on Saturday and find out.

Political Pistachio Radio airs a little early this week


My wife and I have scored tickets (thanks to my mom and dad) for the Stage Coach California Country Music Festival, so this week's show will air live at 7am Pacific/10am Eastern.

Tune in live, call in if you wish to join the debate, at (646) 652-2940, or listen to the archive later at the Political Pistachio Radio archive page. Also, I am trying an experiment. I have installed a chat room for Political Pistachio Radio. For those who choose to use it, let me know what you think. I hope a number of people partake. And of course, as always, you can send me notes during the show via Yahoo Instant Messenger (ID: douglasvgibbs).

And yes, I like Country-Western Music, along with some rock, and everything Christian.

Until tomorrow's show,

God Bless.

You heard it first on Political Pistachio Radio

First, you heard it first that Political Pistachio has finally received some national attention. Granted, it is in a tabloid, but it's a start. The May 7th issue of National Enquirer on page 35 my theory regarding the possibility of an accomplice in the Virginia Tech shootings is quoted with reference to myself and Political Pistachio.

Second, Phil from Holy Chalice, known to some as Night Rider, has decided it is time to take an extended break from the internet. His blog has been shut down, and he has told me that he needs a break from the news of the world.

Phil, we will be waiting for your return. God bless.

Archive of the last show is available to be listened to on the media player in the sidebar of this site.

Mrs. Pistachio is now a citizen

Mrs. Pistachio thanks you all for the congratulatory comments on Political Pistachio, via e-mail, and on the other sites such as Right Angle and Heading Right. The idiot libs, and Mrs. Pistachio's experience at the ceremony to become a citizen of the United States will both be addressed at the next episode of Political Pistachio Radio Saturday at 4pm Pacific/7pm Eastern. Call in at (646) 652-2940 to chime in, or to tell Mrs. Pistachio congrats on the air. Looking forward to hearing from you.

And like last week, My Point Radio is once again following PPR on BlogTalk Radio. Dave and Jenn's show is definitely worth listening to, and one of the fastest growing shows on internet radio. I respect them greatly (even if Dave doesn't like my shirts!)

Political Pistachio has the sharpest readers and listeners on the web. Let's make the show sizzle!

Saturday, April 21, 2007

Last show hasn't archived yet. . .

so I've sent an e-mail to blogtalk radio for them to fix it. They should be on it soon. Thanks for your patience.

Political Pistachio Radio and My Point - Back to Back again!

Alec Baldwin'ss rant and rave against his daughter will be discussed by Mrs. Pistachio (who is 2 months from receiving her Psychology Degree), along with a dissection of what happened at Virginia Tech, the U.K.'s decision to ban the term "War on Terror," and the ban on Partial Birth Abortions being upheld by The Supreme Court, on Political Pistachio Radio.

And ATLAS SHRUGS WILL BE MY POINT RADIO'S GUEST after the end of my show. You can't miss it!

The best two hours in Internet Radio.

Saturday at 4pm Pacific/7pm Eastern is Political Pistachio Radio with yours truly and Mrs. Pistachio (who rocks!) Then at 5pm Pacific/8pm Eastern will be My Point Radio starring Dave and Jenn with their special guest Atlas Shrugs (and Gunny John will chime in as well).

Virginia Tech Shootings

It is said that the photos and video sent to NBC by Cho Seung-Hui moments before he slaughtered 30 innocents at Norris Hall on the Virginia Tech campus were taken with a cell phone. If that's the case, Cho did not act alone. He had help.

And you may ask, "How, Doug, did you come up with such a crazy hypothesis?"

Look carefully at the pictures.

See how centered they are? See how perfectly framed they are? Ever done that on your own with your cell phone, much less any photo taking device?

Somebody took those photos of Cho. Someone knows more about this. That person may have assisted, or was too scared to come forward after realizing what Cho was up to or what he had done.

I pray for those victims that died at the hands of this madman.

And for those out there (specifically, the commenters on Political Pistachio) that thinks I'm off my rocker for my position on this - Are you nuts?

Political Pistachio - The world has gone nuts, and you are siding with it.

To shame.

We will talk about this, the ban on an abortion procedure being upheld, and the banning of the term "War on Terror" in the U.K., this Saturday on Political Pistachio Radio. Tune in at 4pm Pacific/7pm Eastern live, or catch the archive later.

Gunman slays 33 including himself at Virginia Tech

Prayer for those in the crossfire

I spent most of my day yesterday behind the wheel of a big rig transporting equipment between Orange County, San Bernardino County, and Riverside County in Southern California. When days like this come up where I spend most of my day driving, it enables me to spend a lot of time listening to the radio. I was shocked at the events developing at Virginia Tech in Blacksburg, Virginia.

A gunman went on a rampage, reportedly killing 32 plus himself, and injuring twenty plus, in the most horrific and worst mass killing in the history of the United States. This campus shooting began, authorities believe, with a killing of two in a dormatory, and then two hours later, equipped with a 9mm and .22 caliber weapon, and a jacket of clips, the gunman went from class to class at Norris Hall killing at will.

On Michelle Malkin's site, an e-mail from a student at Virginia Tech that had been trapped in one of the classrooms, baracaded as the shooter fires shots through the door they blocked only seconds before, gives a chilling first-hand account of the events.

I have no opinion on yesterday's events other than that they are chilling, and that thoughts of my wife who goes to a local university in pursuit of her bachelors degree, and my children who are roughly the same age as the students at Virginia Tech, came to mind. My prayers go out to those slain, to the parents of those gunned down, and to the students who survived, but will be affected by this for the rest of their lives.

Pray with me for their healing.

This story will be discussed on Saturday, 4pm Pacific/7pm Eastern on Political Pistachio Radio. Join Mrs. Pistachio ad myself for the broadcast.

This post has been cross-posted at all of my sites.

No more Mudkitty, and thank you to a few folks

The April 14, 2007 installment of Political Pistachio Radio was fantastic. Mrs. Pistachio hammered away at the issues, I relaxed and my personality surfaced on the airwaves, Mudkitty finally received a banishment decree from Political Pistachio, and the issue regarding Imus and his "nappy-headed ho's" remark was addressed with zeal.

I wish to thank Dave from My Point Radio, OBOB from OBob's World, and Phil from Holy Chalice for calling in. They made the show even better. Mudkitty also called in, but I decided to place her on infinite hold. Mrs. Pistachio felt I was harsh, and that my actions were out of character, but I felt at that time that it was necessary to preserve the validity of my show.

If you missed it, and would like to listen to the mayhem, it is ready for you on the archive. Click here to partake.

My Point Follows Political Pistachio this Saturday!





This coming Saturday set aside two hours for superior radio programming by myself at 4pm Pacific/7pm Eastern, and My Point Radio at 5pm Pacific/8pm Eastern.
Two shows back to back - it doesn't get much better than that!

My biggest fan

During Easter Dinner I found out that my sister is an avid listener to the show on Blog Talk Radio. The conversation at dinner wound up being all about the show. Wow.

And I got an e-mail from Gary's publisher as well. He loved the show.

Man, with all these fans, I may have to make the show better, or something, or perhaps add another one.

We'll see.

Till the next show,

God Bless.

What Gary W. Moore thought of the Show

Doug,

I think you and Virginia are naturals for the radio. I have been on almost 200 radio and TV interviews since September and yours ranks among the best. Thank you for the opportunity to be on your show. I am truly grateful.

Yes I will call you next time I am going to be in LA or anywhere in Southern CA. Let’s keep in touch!

HAPPY EASTER!

Warmest Regards,

Gary

Should I laugh or cry?


On Political Pistachio Radio I interviewed Gary W. Moore (author of Playing With The Enemy) on April 7, 2007. The show was a rousing success. Gary was a fantastic guest, Tisha from Brussels called in revealing the show's international appeal, and Phil called in near the end which turned out to be good since I was at rope's end with my questions.

What could go wrong?

Growing up in a household run by a United States Marine war veteran, and myself serving in the United States Navy, taught me to pay special attention to detail. Sometimes I drive Mrs. Pistachio nuts with my nearly obsessive attention to the little things in life. And when people around me don't worry about little things that I find important, it drives me up the wall.

I don't squeeze the toothpaste in the middle, I roll it from the bottom up. I fold my towels and shirts with two folds. I don't leave the refrigerator open for any length of time. And I hang up the phone when I am finished speaking on it.

So, after the fantastic episode of Political Pistachio today with Gary Moore as my guest, I was enthusiastic. Excited. Vocal about my feelings.

And Mrs. Pistachio had set down her phone and walked out of the room as the show concluded, without pushing the button on it which would disconnect it from the line.

Little did I know, when I hung up mine, that her line was still active.

And I said, "That went soooo freakin' well."

Now, to my surprise, my reaction is forever archived at BlogTalk Radio, because Mrs. Pistachio's phone picked up my exhuberance.

What kind of person finishes a phone call, sets down their phone without hanging it up, and walks away?

And when I twisted in confusion regarding how to react to this revelation, my wonderful wife looked me in the eye, and began to laugh.

Perhaps my belt's too tight.

By the way, there are still plenty of Political Pistachio bumper stickers available. E-mail me if you want one, and I will send it out immediately, at no charge to you.

Friday, April 6, 2007

Dan from the Bronx

Last Saturday on my radio show somebody called in that I have received a lot of positive feedback regarding. Dan from the Bronx made the show memorable. His genuine personality and Bronx accent reached out to you, made you feel at home on the show. What a fantastic caller to have. If you missed it, go to Political Pistachio Radio and listen to the March 17th archive.

Anyhow, his blogtalk radio show premiered tonight, and what a great show. Very entertaining. Yours truly called in during the first half, and relayed my story about my visit to New York, an experience I had at ground zero, a comment about New York pizza, and how I learned during my visit to the New York area how huge the rivalry truly is between the Yankees and the Red Sox. Access his show here.

And as an added note, this Saturday, on the 24th of March, the main subject of the Political Pistachio Radio show will be the Great Global Warming Lie! Call in, chime in, let me know what you think about this issue. The show will go live at 4pm Pacific Time, 7pm Eastern. Dial in to be on the show and give your twenty cents of opinion at

And finally, on April 7th, the author of "Playing With The Enemy" will be my guest on the show. His name is Gary W. Moore, and we will be discussing his fantastic book about the life of his father, the motion picture currently in filming based on the book (and the interesting twist regarding the actor playing Gary Moore's father in the film), Baseball, World War II, Oprah, a challenge issued to Rudy Guiliani, and a little town known as Sesser, Illinois. Gary is a person you must listen to. His book is one that is worth reading. Tune in on April 7th to hear all about it.

Thursday, March 15, 2007

Mrs. Pistachio completes me

After audio trouble, last Saturday's show became wonderful once Mrs. Pistachio got on the air. Her comment that illegal aliens are like dogs digging under a fence to get out of their backyard was priceless! Anyhow, she is on the show for a reason. Besides, she completes me in all aspects of life, so why would the show be any different. Now, we have made sure that she will be on the show from the get-go, so this upcoming show on March 17, 2007 at 4 pm Pacific/7 pm Eastern will be a good one. And if you want to call in to Political Pistachio Radio, dial (646-652-2940). Hope to hear from you this Saturday.

Saturday, March 10, 2007

The "No Mudkitty" episode is on the archives.



the show was better, especially after I eliminated microphone problems halfway through the show. Mudkitty did not call in, and Mrs. Pistachio shined.

The shows keep getting better.

Making the show more professional

On Political Pistachio Radio this Saturday, I am attempting to make the show more like this blog (You know, seriously political with the occasional hint of humor when you least expect it), and less like a group phone call. The subjects I plan to touch on this Saturday are: Illegal Immigration, The Ten Commandments on Court Houses, Iraq, A showdown between two Mexicans and a black California Highway Patrol Officer I witnessed on the streets of Temecula (in California), Condi Rice as a possible candidate in 2008?, Political Correctness, and Barack Obama paying parking tickets 17 years late!

During the show you may call in (if you want to comment on the topics on the table) at (646) 652-2940, or you may comment at politicalpistachio at yahoo dot com, or make comments as the show progresses live through Yahoo Messenger (my ID is douglasvgibbs).

Sunday, March 4, 2007

Another show, another lesson learned

Show number two was relatively successful. We stuck to politics, and I let Mudkitty have it when I felt it was necessary. I even advised her that I see her as a car wreck. People don't want to know any details, yet they still look as they drive by.

Numbers were a little lower, but the show was a little better. Time to market a little harder.

Oh, and the lesson I learned? Live feed dies at the one hour mark, and I need to keep an eye on the clock.

Lesson learned.

Tuesday, February 27, 2007

As the shock of the first show winds down. . .

Political Pistachio Radio was a success, I think, maybe, possibly. Now that I have a new microphone, the show will include me as well. Mudkitty, my resident liberal, however, ran away with the show. Did I cater to her? Perhaps. But this Saturday, the liberal visitor of many conservative blogs is going down, and I plan to enjoy watching Mrs. Pistachio accomplish that feat.

Huh?

That's right, I got ran over by a Mack Truck called Mudkitty, and Mrs. Pistachio wants to know why, and she'll do more than ask Mudkitty why she doesn't believe in God. Listen to the fireworks go off this Saturday at 4 pm Pacific/7 pm Eastern/2 am somewhere in Europe.

oo-rah!

Friday, February 23, 2007

Premiere

Show Premieres tomorrow, February 24, 2007 at BlogTalk Radio. Tune in. Call in. Or just listen. It looks like it will be a good time.

Thursday, February 22, 2007

Premiere of Political Pistachio Radio

This Saturday on the premiere of my internet radio show at BlogTalk Radio I will be discussing "Where the Liberal Left Misses the Whole Point," and the letter I had to write because the local school district believes that they are a better parent than myself and have more of a right to teach my child about "morality" than I do. Tune in at 4pm Pacific/7pm Eastern at www.blogtalkradio.com/politicalpistachio - or listen later by accessing the archive.

Friday, February 16, 2007

It's Official

Political Pistachio Radio premiere: February 24, 2007 at 4:00 pm Pacific Time.

BlogTalk Radio

Wide Awakes Radio is suffering from stream problems, and until they get it all straightened out, I plan to use BlogTalk Radio to have my shows. Probably a mid-week show and a Saturday show. Mrs. Pistachio (my wife Virginia) has agreed to do the show with me. Exact times and links will be forthcoming.

Wednesday, February 14, 2007

Branching Out

As the date of my Saturday radio show's premiere on Wide Awakes Radio remains unconfirmed, I am considering adding a Tuesday night show on Blog Talk Radio. I will keep you posted.

Saturday, February 10, 2007

Friday, February 9, 2007

Currently the stream is down, my show is on pause

As Wide Awakes Radio attempts to update their system, the radio show is on hold until further notice. I hope next weekend I'll be on. Stay tuned.

Tuesday, February 6, 2007

Still waiting for confirmation of premiere date

Wide Awakes Radio is currently off the air as the owner of the network changes the servers hoping to provide a better stream, and more options for the listeners, such as podcasting.

The premiere date for Political Pistachio Radio is still not confirmed. . . I will post the date when it is. The original plan was to have the new servers up immediately after the Super Bowl, but Kender has encountered some unexpected obstacles.

When I first began discussing the upcoming show, I stated the premiere date could be either February 10th, or the 17th. As the 10th approaches, I am saddened to say it may be pushed to the 17th.

Everything is being done to bring the premiere date up as soon as possible, and I am chomping at the bit to get the show started.

Stay tuned.

Saturday, January 27, 2007

Political Pistachio Radio will air on Wide Awakes Radio on Saturdays, 5:00 pm to 7:00 pm Pacific Time, 8:00 pm to 10:00 pm Eastern Time.

For my European readers/listeners, I am sorry, because that is after midnight on the other side of the pond. As the show grows in popularity, I will try to also add a morning show (which is in the afternoon for those in Europe). Stay tuned.

Premiere date will probably be February 10th, 2007, but that date has still not been confirmed, yet. I will keep you posted.

Downloading shows so that you may listen later is a possibility. Again, I will keep you posted.
