Thursdays with Howie Klein on the Nicole Sandler Show 3-14-24

     It's Thursday, so time for our weekly get-together with Howie Klein of downwithtyranny.com & the Blue America PAC. This week, both Biden and TFG clinched their party's nominations, so buckle in for a loooonger than our already ridiculously long election season and all that comes with it. There's lots of political news to discuss with Howie today, but I'll certainly save a few minutes to talk about this week's losses (of some amazing musicians)... I played a song  at the top of the show from a bunch of Nashville based artists supporting Gloria Johnson for Senate (she's [...]

White Rural Rage with Tom Schaller & Paul Waldman on the Nicole Sandler Show 3-6-24

     A new book is out and making waves because it points out an ugly truth about a huge swatch of this nation. Following yesterday's Super Tuesday primaries, the top of the 2024 presidential ticket is now set. It'll be a rematch between Joe Biden and Donald Trump, as if we didn't know that would be the case. What has changed is the political landscape of middle America - or Rural America. Tom Schaller, Political Science Professor at University of Maryland, Baltimore and journalist/columnist Paul Waldman have co-authored a new book that helps to explain the divide: WHITE [...]

1-30-24 Nicole Sandler Show – Let’s Try This Again with Brian Karem

Shit happens. Last Wednesday, we were expecting journalist Brian Karem to pop into the Zoom room at any moment. That moment never came. When I invited Brian on the show, he told me that he had pool duty that day, but should be on the tarmac at LAX where he could jump on the air with me while waiting for the Vice President to get back to the plane. Unfortunately, the Secret Service had a different idea that day, and Brian was unable to join us. So we'll try again today when, I think, he'll be in a more [...]

We have no guest today, just lots of news and clips to support my conjecture, and an open phone line at 954-889-6410 should you care to join in.   https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AsVYzHo9LSk

2-8-23 Nicole Sandler Show – State Of The Union – Springsteen Split Screen

https://media.zencastr.com/audio-files/5e0cc41aa9798f001400ff98/4bfde5f6-c9d2-4d88-aef9-a9e1738e98e3.mp3 Click the player above to play, right click the download button below to download the episode, scroll down for the video version   My Tuesday night plans - watching Joe Biden's second State of the Union Address - were upended when my sister came through with a coveted pair of tickets to see Bruce Springsteen at the 7000-seat Hard Rock Live, here in Hollywood FL. I'd been upset about missing my first Bruce tour since 1980, but that's what I'd resigned myself to since Ticketmaster instituted their "dynamic pricing," which escalated ticket prices into the stratosphere, especially at the [...]

11-9-22 Nicole Sandler Show – Post-Mortemizing the Midterms with Dark Brandon, Brian Karem and You

Download here or click below to play, (or watch the video at the bottom of the page!)   Well, I'm feeling slightly vindicated today. I told you yesterday that I did not trust the polls and the corporate media's breathless horse race -like obsession over them, regardless of the political leanings of each particular polling company. And I was correct. There was no Red Tsunami, no red wave, more like a ripple, but unfortunately a ripple without enough resistance that'll allow it to take control of the House and possibly even the Senate. Today on the show, we'll go through [...]

10-6-22 Nicole Sandler Show – Thursdays with Howie Klein

Download here or click below to play, (or watch the video at the bottom of the page!) It's Thursday, the day of the week that Howie Klein joins in. Howie was president of Reprise Records when I first met him, probably 25-30 years ago in LA. So our discussions often veer off into the music world. Just some context there. Since leaving Reprise and Warner Bros, Howie's been ensconced in progressive politics. He blogs at DownWithTyranny.com and runs the Blue America PAC along with Heather Digby Parton and John Amato. His latest piece up at DWT is "Good for [...]

3-29-22 Nicole Sandler Show – So Much Worse than Watergate with Will Bunch

  Download here or click below to play, (or watch the video at the bottom of the page!)   Will Bunch is today's guest. He's a national columnist for the Philadelphia Inquirer. This year marks the 50th anniversary of Watergate, a political scandal that brought down a president. For the past 50 years, Watergate was held up as the example of the worst of America, and every scandal was positioned in relation to Watergate. Will Bunch is a Watergate junkie. He's my age, so he was only around 12 or 13 when the hearings were everywhere. He says he raced [...]

3-28-22 Nicole Sandler Show – A Gaffe, a Slap & a 21st Century Bill of Rights with Harvey J Kaye

Download here or click below to play, (or watch the video at the bottom of the page!)   President Biden is still suffering from falling approval ratings. The surprising thing it that his numbers are low on the economy too. Record GDP growth, record low unemployment and a still raging stock market, but plummeting ratings? I wonder what that's about (not really, I know exactly what -- or who-- is responsible.) Today, Biden introduced his budget. The president's budget never goes anywhere and usually doesn't even merit much press coverage, but the media is all over Biden whenever an opportunity [...]
