"480 Minutes" Happy New Year!
Happy 2008, everyone. Let's hope that last night's strong showings in Iowa by Barak Obama (The Hopeful Future) and Mike Huckabee (The Dark, Oppressive Past) bodes well for the next presidential election. Of course, that assumes that the Bushists will not shred the last vestiges of the constitution between now and them and will allow an election to happen.Here's some more news -- BAGeL Radio will be broadcasting live from the MacWorld Expo (1/15-1/18) thanks to our friends at the SFSU College of Extended Learning, where I teach a class about Blogs, Podcasts, and Internet Radio. (The Spring semester class meets 3 times: March 1st, 8th, and 22nd). Watch this space for details on broadcast hours and special features including interviews from the middle of MacWorld.
Please tune in to "480 Minutes" today and every Friday. The show is live from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. Pacific Time.
Today's show will feature new music from Cheyenne (Brooklyn, NY), King Of Prussia (Athens, GA), Leopold And His Fiction (SF, CA), The Motion Sick (Boston, MA), The Shackeltons (Chambersburg, PA), Yesan Damen (Seattle, WA), and The Neutrinos (Norwich, UK).
