Re: Colin Powell endorses Obama

Who are the Young Turks? I imagine it has nothing to do with turn of the century Arab nationalism? We still don't have the widest selection of talkers in my market. It's basically either Steph or the macho local guy in the morning, then Big Eddie or Rush in the afternoon. God I'm a nerd...

The Young Turks was started by a guy who, like me, considered himself a Republican until the Republicans went off the deep end and started doing crazy shit. It is a mix of (mostly) politics, pop culture and other random stuff. They are on XM and various local radio stations, although I actually download it as a podcast and listen to it that way because I have Sirius in my car and no local station carries it. The host, Cenk Uygur, also blogs on HuffPo and has one of the more entertaining blogs around, IMO. Check it out:

The show's website is horribly organized and contains virtually no useful information, but it does stream the show on a loop 24/7, so you can check it out there if you're interested. The first hour is also free on iTunes -- just search for it, and it should pop right up.

Give it a try, and let me know what you think.

Just caught a bit of the show from their site. Good stuff. Did you hear the show today? I caught the bit where they played the interview of the conservative woman who was praying for her husband who was an undecided voter. Thanks for the link, I will certainly be checking these guys out in the future.

Not yet -- forgot to sync my iPod before I left for work... looking forward to checking it out, though...
