Aussie Shock Jocks


When I listen to the radio, and I hear a bit that I don’t get, or just sounds bad, I always try to find out why.

What was the point of that bit? What where they trying to poke fun at? Was it a misunderstanding, or was the bit just stupid.

Well slot this under the real stupid, no thought process at all was given to this bit, I would say it looks like a grab for rating.

On some Aussie radio show there was a 14 year old hooked up to a lie detector, and her Mom asked her questions about her sexually history, and this is were we find out she was raped.

Check out the BBC story here.

Here’s my take on it…

MiniCast - Iraq and Afghanistan


Today is a big day for Iraq, the pulling back of US troops. Of course this was missed because of Michael Jackson's death, and the crazy media frenzy around that.

Check out some BBC stories, here and here.

And then there is this retarded law in Afghanistan. The Shiite Family law, check out the Globe and Mail story here.

MiniCast - The Hippies Were Right


Sometimes the local newspaper get it right.

Check this little article from the Winnipeg Free Press.
Its the Picture that is the most important part, and the three "Free Speech advocates" that are in at their 'rally.'

I don't know how many people you need to have a rally, but its more then three.

MiniCast is Here!

Two MiniCast For The Price Of One!


Another two for one deal with the MiniCast.

The first I just do a quick hit on the Iran unrest, and democratic election. Then I get into Toronto and the legality of taxing plastics bags.

Check out the National Post story Here.

Check out the MiniCast Here!

The Second MiniCast, I get into how amazing what is going on in Iran right now. How the internet is being used, how the Citizen Journalist and big time reports are working together to paint a full picture of what is really happening.

Check out that MiniCast Here!
