WBAI/Pacifica - C/D//S/D

And I love The Positive Mind with Armand DiMele. I have actually applied lessons learned from that show in real life.

wow, bummer. reminds me of the big Pacifica controversy in 2001 when they had that huge fight over the leadership of the station

haven't listened in years. This was my all-time fave WBAI host, now on Sirius:

Been enjoying Katie Halper's show -- it's a very "millennial" and ADD political talk show where the host often says more than the guest and often very little gets said at all, but I don't mind because she's witty and likeable.

Ugh. The DC Pacifica station WPFW seemed to be finally getting its financial act together.

I'll miss WBAI very much, but I've been expecting it to shut down any moment for about 20 years now. There's no way a good station like that can be located at 99.5 FM in this day and age.

Talk on air today that leins are being made against stations in LA and here in Houston.
