Tune in to The Free Speech Zone on Sunday night January 2nd at 7 pm to hear an 80 minute Patrick Timpone/One Radio Network interview with Dr. Richard Sauder entitled: What the government is trying to hide?  Dr. Sauder is a native Virginian, with an abiding interest in  Forteana, unusual information and anomalous paradigm-busting data of all varieties. Beginning in early childhood he has experienced first hand contact with a variety of paranormal phenomena that have left him a bit puzzled, flummoxed and thoroughly persuaded that there is much more to the Earth and to human perception and consciousness than the mainstream American culture believes. He is the author of several books, including Hidden in Plain Sight: Beyond The X-Files and The Richard Sauder Briefing. An excellent interview for the open minded!

"Don't know what I am seeing here, but it sure looks festive!"

Join me tonight from 6-8 for a test run of my First Night playlist.  That’s right, you can hear me on Friday night, too, down at the WSCA booth, corner of Market and Pleasant Street.  Along with my cohorts from WSCA, we’ll be playing the music to help the revelers celebrate First Night.  We make the masses dance!
 
Soul Vaccination dance party, tonight.  Practice your moves to my tunes in the privacy of your kitchen before taking them out to the First Night street dance.

…so where do I begin…

 I got my handle “The Supersport” back during the mid 70’s, while on CB before the hit single “Convoy” and the related /”CB craze” , as well because my first car was a 1966 Chevy Super Sport. You know, the one with the rear speaker built into the back seat!

I have always loved listening to the radio while growing up in Boston, including DX’ing other “Top 40″ radio stations on AM Radio, way before the Internet.  I am a huge fan of “Top 40″ and “Album Oriented Rock (AOR)” radio, especially during the 60’s - 80’s.  I have not figured out why I never got into radio programming, but given the corporate “cookie-cutting” techniques that has occurred in radio over the years, I am glad that I did not, as I do not find “corporate” radio very creative, unlike our Seacoast Community Radio station, 106.1 FM - WSCA and wscafm.org.

 My show “Scratchy 45’s and Beyond” is meant to capture your memory banks once again, as together, we re-live the music, jingles, and personality-radio you heard back then on your AM-FM transistor radio, while sneaking in a few current tunes here and there.  Join us for our new time slot starting 1/1/2011 at 10 AM (ET) every Saturday.  Requests and your phone calls are always accepted at (603) 430-WSCA.

I hope you listen and really enjoy my show on WSCA - FM 106.1.  Portsmouth and the Seacoast are very lucky to have a Low-Power Community Radio Station.

Tune in to The Free Speech Zone on Sunday night December 26th at 7 pm to hear Glenn Greenwald on The Torture Of Bradley Manning, a Scott Horton/Anti War Radio  interview. Greenwald, a Salon.com blogger and former constitutional lawyer, discusses the inhumane detention conditions of accused WikiLeaks source Bradley Manning, eyewitness accounts of Manning’s deteriorating mental an physical condition, the long term psychological consequences of severe isolation akin to torture, the government’s domestic “shock and awe” campaign of fear and intimidation against dissidents and whistleblowers and why Manning’s draconian imprisonment may be a negotiating tactic to coer testimony against Julian Assange. Second up is: Wikileaks: A Simulation of Net Wars to Come, a Radio Open Source/Christopher Lydon interview with Net thinkers James Der Derian at Brown University and Ron Deibert at the University of Toronto, who are looking for a new lede on the Wikileaks story. Julian Assange, poor devil, is the least of it — even if Bill O’Reilly wants to rip him apart with his bare hands and Vladimir Putin would give him the Nobel Peace Prize.  What’s interesting, in this conversation anyway, is the glimpse of an arms race in cyberspace, and the cautionary lesson in the geopolitics of the Internet.

Leonard Cohen’s Hallelujah takes center stage in a very different show this week. The entire half hour showcases multiple artists’ renditions. During the music, Reverend Robert Thompson ( See Photo) of PEA shares the story of the nativity through the Gospels of Luke and Matthew.

Tune in to The Free Speech Zone on Sunday night December 19th at 7 pm to hear “The Espionage Act and the Death of American Freedoms”, a Lew Rockwell interview with Naomi Wolf, author of The End of America. Wolf says that the TSA and Wikileaks situations are Master-Slave fights, not Left-Right disputes and the threatened use of the 1917 Espionage Act against Wikileaks founder Julian Assange, a  journalist, signals a rapid escalation on multiple fronts toward the end of liberty for all of us and we must act if we are to have a chance. Secondly, we’ll hear a Scott Horton/AntiWar Radio Interview with Charles Goyette, author of The Dollar Meltdown : Surviving the Impending Currency Crisis with Gold, Oil, and other Unconventional Investments. Goyette discusses Ben Bernanke’s 60 Minutes interview where he declares (with lip-quivering certitude) a “100 percent confidence” the Fed can control inflation; how the Fed filled up on bad assets full of “mystery meat” in their quantitative easing program(s); Republican deficit reduction plans that will be decimated from even a minuscule increase in interest rates; the crisis in fiat money as most of the worlds currencies are debased relative to hard assets; and why Americans are still asleep at the switch while their government actively destroys the economy.
