In this episode of Funked, we were pleased to be joined by Dr. K, my former college professor. What more could a soon-to-be-grad ask for than to have her very last class, The History of Rock and Roll, be taught by a fellow Stephanie Miller fanatic?!?!?
In segment one, we reminisced about the class and shared some laughs about our mutual Steph addiction. We also got to talk about Dr. K's new book, The Mystery of Music, and two letters he recently had printed in The Sun Sentinel newspaper.
In the first segment, we give David Gregory of "Meet the Press" props for challenging Senate Minority Leader, Mitch McConnell, about paying for extending the Bush tax cuts and Republicans' failure to embrace Paul Ryan's deficit reduction plan.
In the second segment, we hear Ellis's take on the Right wing "Mosque" conspiracy, the interesting fact that some American's think Obama's a Muslim, and the upcoming November elections.
In this episode of Funked, we were joined by our conservative pals Armen Martin and Mark Lamb for some lively debate about issues in the present political spectrum.
In the first segment, the four of us debate our views on the economy, tax cuts, and the Healthcare Bill.
In the second segment, we come back to take our positions on the Ground Zero "Mosque" controversy, the news that nearly one out of four Americans believe Obama is a Muslim, and the chances for Tea Party candidates come this November.
Back by popular demand, Laffy of The Political Carnival joins us again for Funked's very own little Constitutional Convention.
In the first segment, we talk to Laffy about her incredible posts on the Islamic Community Center soon to be built near Ground Zero. We even get to riff a bit about Obama's comments on the subject and a few of the more outrageous reactions on the Right.
And that awesome bumper music you just heard was from the album 'Bout Time by The Prior Brothers' Band. Be sure to check them out!
In the second segment, we pick back up on the conversation to conclude it's the Constitution-touting Right that appears to know the least about the laws of our land. Thankfully, we finish on a more positive note with a perfect little snippet from tonight's Special Comment by Keith Olbermann.
In the second segment, we come back with more of Jim's extensive knowledge of the JFK assassination and we get into LeftNeck's favorite Jim Ward conspiracy, September 11th.
In segment two, Laffy hung around to chat with us about Howard Dean's spat with Fox's Chris Wallace, Juan Williams' ponderin' about racism, and shared some laughs listenin' to Shane-O's Shirley Sherrod montage.
