Planting Seeds
Episode #016

It is becoming more difficult to drown out the cycle of non-stop noise emanating from the man-child in charge and his swelling herd of loyalist enablers. Namely the Republicans in the Senate and House of Representatives, who could have stopped this nonsense long ago. Indictments, threats, lies, temper tantrums, cruelty and a complete lack of dignity and/or respect and common decency are the new normal, as “the regime” continue their quest to obliterate the middle class, consolidate power and limit health care to the wealthy and super wealthy. Bobby Brainworm as head of Health and Human Services is apparently under the impression that the female of the species carries a child to term in her placenta. Really? He does have children, doesn’t he? And we can’t leave out the fact that the smartest man in the world needs to know who this Habeas Corpus guy is. It’s to the point where you start to miss the wit and wisdom of Dan Quayle and Sarah Palin, or honesty and integrity of Spiro Agnew and Joe McCarthy. There does not appear to be a bottom for this crew.

Music is what I depend upon to keep the wolves at bay and this episode is absolutely loaded with outstanding examples, new, old and in-between. We have new releases from Rachael Yamagata, Supergrass (live with strings), John Lennon, Arthur/Buck, Reuben Lewis, I Hold the Lion's Paw;Tariro Mavondo, Climb That Gddm!

Special edition, remastered deluxe sets from Oasis, My Morning Jacket, Robin Trower and Genesis. And the library offers up The Beatles, R.E.M., XTC, Peter Tosh, King Crimson, Argent, The Brains, The Smiths, Gong, Tom Petty & The Heartbreakers, Pete Townshend, The Kinks, Roger Miller, Louis Armstrong, Van Morrison, Hoodoo Gurus and more to keep everything flowing the way we like it.

Thanks so much for listening and all the support (donations are HERE) and if you are in an area afflicted with armed, masked members of Tangerine’s Tigers (aka ICE) don’t take the bait. He’s dying to enact The Insurrection Act and declare Martial Law so he can cancel elections and never leave office. Please be safe and we will get through this.
