Day 111: Sirius Left

My Best Guess: Gather around the Sirius radio to catch intelligent and informative liberal talk programming, from some of the biggest names on the left-side of the political spectrum

According to Sirius: Coast-to-coast liberal talk featuring outspoken, unique, and entertaining hosts like Alex Bennett, Lynn Samuels, Ed Schultz, Bill Press, Thom Hartmann, Mark Thompson and more!

Curt's Rebuttal: That's pretty weak sauce, actually...I think the right-wingers did a more impressive job of promoting themselves...

Sample Playlist:
  • Thom Hartmann: Here, I got to listen to "Brunch with Bernie," what seems to be a regular segment where they bring in Senator Bernie Sanders to answer questions from callers. Now, I have no idea who this man is, but he took calls on topics ranging from making Election Day a national holiday (so people could vote), unfair credit card practices, and reducing bans on imported vehicles (which sometimes have more fuel efficiency than domestic vehicles).
  • Lynn Samuels: I tell ya, if all conservatives look at liberals as being this woman, no wonder they can't stand the left side of the political spectrum. The woman was obnoxious. I tried following what she was talking about, but it was tough...something about "Sensory Processing Disorder" and "George Bush's Finest Moments."
Verdict: I prefer to listen to something a little more "middle of the road," that doesn't focus on political views that tend to mirror my own. Sorry.
