  • Ralph Nader Radio Hour Ep 236 Transcript
    RALPH NADER RADIO HOUR EP 236 TRANSCRIPT David Feldman: From the KPFK Studios in Southern California… Steve Skrovan: … It’s the Ralph Nader Radio Hour. “Stand up, stand up You’ve been sitting way too long” Steve Skrovan: Welcome to the Ralph Nader Radio Hour. My name is Steve Skrovan. My co-host David Feldman is observing Yom Kippur as we record this. He’s atoning, which is ironic because I think one of the things I expect him to atone for is not being here today. So it’s just kind of a vicious circle for him. But we also have the man of the hour, Ralph Nader. Hello Ralph. Ralph Nader: Hello everybody. Steve Skrovan: We have another special program today. In a lot of ways, our guest today, Phil Donahue, is the father of us all here in broadcasting, not to mention podcasting. That’s because the original Phil Donahue Show was born in Dayton, Ohio--not exactly a travel hub for the country’s movers and shakers. His show was one of the first, if not the first, if I’m not mistaken, to use conference-call technology to engage with guests on the phone who couldn’t make the trip to Dayton. On our show here, we do much the same thing, except we’re all in remote locations. I’m in Los Angeles, David is generally in New York, Ralph is in D.C., and our guests have come to us from all over the country and the world. So Phil Donahue literally invented the modern daytime talk show.

  • BSK Starts at Minute 6:26 Doug Is Currently Writing the Latest Book In
    BSK Starts at Minute 6:26 Doug is currently writing the latest book in his novel series. In it, his lead character becomes an assassin out of necessity, and that leads to an examination of the morality of such a career. Doug discusses the last commodity peak back in 2011 which is already seven years ago. This bear market is quite long, and most commodities are down at least 50 percent not factoring in inflation of the dollar. The junior markets are quite illiquid, and that makes it difficult to obtain sizable positions in them. Private placements are useful because you buy shares directly from the company. However, it takes awhile to be able to sell the stocks. Even if you lose money on the first trade, you will still have the option to buy using your warrant for two to five years. You want to buy when others are timid. You want to be careful when everyone else is being bold. Right now no one wants to hear about the junior resource sector so now is the ideal time to get in. Uranium may be Doug's favorite commodity. He has been involved with uranium and related companies for a long time. The price of uranium today is as low as it was in 1998 since the dollar is worth a lot less today. He is expecting very big returns. One of the companies he likes is Blue Sky who are doing uranium development in Argentina, and that country is open for business. Doug feels that Trump is doing a reasonable job although he lacks a philosophical core.

    Ralph Nader Radio Hour Episode 118 Transcript Phil Donahue, James Cullen Steve Skrovan: Welcome to the Ralph Nader Radio Hour. My name is Steve Skrovan along with the man of the hour Ralph Nader. Hello, Ralph. How are you today? Ralph Nader: Good. We have a wonderful show today. Steve Skrovan: Yes. I’m very excited about the show today. In the second half of the show, we will be talking to James Cullen, editor of the Progressive Populist Magazine which as it’s title might suggest is one of the leading voices in the progressive movement. Ralph has sung the magazine’s praises frequently in this program. As always, we will check in with the corporate crime reporter Russell Mokhiber, the Stephanie Plum of the corporate crime beat. But, first, we’re going to talk about war and the media with a man who is a legend of the television industry. Our first guest, Phil Donahue, literally invented the modern daytime talk show. “The Phil Donahue Show” had a nearly thirty year run on American television that along the way garnered him twenty Emmy awards. The show touched on the serous social and political issues of the day and was the first to include audience participation. And, if I’m not mistaken, our very own Ralph Nader holds the record for the most appearances on the “Donahue” program. A few years after that run ended, Mr. Donahue hosted a similar show in MSNBC and was abruptly terminated shortly before the launch of the Iraq war. An internal MSNBC memo was leaked to the press stating that Donahue should be fired, because he opposed the eminent invasion and that he would be “difficult public face for NBC in a time of war.” Over the years, Mr.

From “Discourses of Sobriety” to Deadpan Comedy: Christopher Guest’s Musical ... 1 From “Discourses of Sobriety” to Deadpan Comedy: Christopher Guest’s Musical Trilogy Charles Holdefer The idea was, “Wouldn’t it be fun to do a movie where people got this right for a change?” Harry Shearer, aka bass player “Derek Smalls” of Spinal Tap (Muir 2004: 25) 1 The entertainment industry has long been fascinated by the “truth” behind popular music. Indeed, the first feature length talking film, The Jazz Singer (Crosland 1927), starred Al Jolson as Jakie Rabinowitz, a young man struggling to reconcile his Jewish identity to his success at performing in blackface to white audiences. Since then, there has been an endless stream of movies about music. Some are explicitly biographical, with actors cast as iconic musicians: e.g., The Glenn Miller Story (Mann 1954), The Buddy Holly Story (Rash 1978), Ray (Hackford 2004), Walk the Line (Mangold 2005) and Bohemian Rhapsody (Singer 2018).

Mail poured into the Baptist General Convention of Texas I office in Dallas from the Chicago-Cincinnati area a few days after Lloyd Elder, Good News Texas media chairman, and associate to the Texas Baptist executive director, appeared on the "Phil Donahue Show" on WGN -TV, Chicago. Most of the writers asked for the 'Living Proof' brochure which Donahue displayed and which includes the Biblical plan for becoming a Christian. Many commented on the five 30­ second testimonies of well-known people shown during the hour-long talk show.
