Emptywheel Fridays – Our Last One for 2024 – Nicole Sandler Show 12-20-24

Well, we made it to the end of the year. Or just about, anyway. Since I've been sick I've decided to do something I don't usually do which is take off and rest over the holidays. I've put together a great couple of weeks of shows to get us through January 3, and hope to return well-rested and ready to take on the challenges ahead. I did want to end with a final Emptywheel Friday episode and thankfully was able to record with Marcy Wheeler this morning. There's a lot we didn't get to (like the Matt Gaetz [...]

Teach Truth with Jesse Hagopian – Nicole Sandler Show 12-18-24

We last got together for a live show one week ago today. When Kelly Carlin was on with me, my voice started getting really gravelly and I felt progressively worse as the hour wore on. By Wednesday night I felt like crap and by Thursday night, my breathing was so labored that I feared it was pneumonia, so I went to the ER. (I'm now on Medicare with the Plan G supplemental insurance so won't have an obscene co-pay to deal with this time!). Numerous tests and chest x-rays later I was diagnosed with the flu. I had gotten [...]

One More Day.. I’ll Be Back Wednesday

Thank you all for being so patient with me while I've been a patient! After all the crap I've been through over the past few months, I got hit with a nasty bout of the  flu. I'm doing much better, but am not quite there yet. But I am planning on coming back tomorrow, Wed, 12/18. Again, I'm so sorry for being out for so long. I'll try to make it up to you. Nicole

Living, Coping, Moving Forward with Kelly Carlin on the Nicole Sandler Show 12-11-24

I adore Kelly Carlin. She is an amazing woman who has lived a fascinating life filled with unique challenges and experiences and uses it all to help others on our journeys. Yes. She is the only child of the legendary comedian and voice of a generation, George Carlin. She's got a Masters in Jungian psychology, though she is not a therapist. Regardless, she has helped (and continues to help) lots of us who face our own unique sets of problems, challenges and experiences. Kelly has guested on this show a few times over the years. I called on her [...]

Dr. Bitecofer is Back on the Nicole Sandler Show 12-10-24

 Rachel Bitecofer does have that "Dr" title, and we could all use some healing right now. The best doctors are those who give you the information, the tools and the strategies to heal, so that's what we're talking about today. Bitecofer, author of the book HIT 'EM WHERE IT HURTS gave us the tools, strategies and info we needed, but too many didn't follow the directions. Now Rachel is back with a podcast and blog at THECYCLE.SUBSTACK.COM so subscribe, listen, read, and pay attention! She's a political scientist and strategist, and if we (Americans) [...]

Another Monday and More F’ing News on the Nicole Sandler Show 12-9-24

    Like death and taxes, Mondays are inevitable. As so many of us have tuned out of the nonstop news coverage, we're happy to fill you on what's happening in the world as we start the new week with Jonathan Larsen of TheFuckingNews.substack.com. Why? The news goes down easier with a bit of snark. Today, a "strong person of interest" in the UHC CEO killing is in custody in PA thanks to a McDonalds employee. TFN has uncovered some interesting details about 26-year old Luigi Mangione, including his high school valedictory speech. Welcome to a new week... (PS Post-show [...]

Emptywheel Friday on The Nicole Sandler Show 12-6-24

  We're back. Marcy Wheeler again joins us from her home in Ireland for our end-of-the-week look back on what went down over the past few days. As usual, lots of shit thrown against the wall where, inevitably, some of it sticks. Today we talk about what's left of the D'ump indictments and prosecutions (not much), his nominations (lots of them), pardons and preemptive pardons (just listen) and more... We have a lot of work to do. Let's get to it. In the meantime, I'm compiling a list of credible, accurate, good journalists who we can trust to report the [...]

Thursdays with Howie Klein of Down WithTyranny- Nicole Sandler Show 12-5-24

    I've been hosting this show exclusively online since January 21, 2010. Prior to that, we were on Air America Radio weeknights. But on that day, Air America went dark... coincidentally, that was the day that the Supreme Court handed down its democracy-killing decision in Citizens United, basically equating money with speech and upending one of the legs of democracy. Howie Klein has been a regular guest on this show since the Air America days. So, for more than 15 years now, Howie and I have spoken on the show almost weekly about our democracy and how to best [...]

Lisa Graves on the Law, SCOTUS, nominations and more – Nicole Sandler Show 12-4-24

    If you're a regular listener of the show then you're familiar with today's guest, Lisa Graves. In addition to being one of my favorite people, she's also one of the most brilliant. She's currently Director of TrueNorthResearch.org. but appears on this show in her personal capacity offering facts and opinions based on her unimpeachable experience working in the DoJ under AGs Janet Reno and John Ashcroft, in the Senate Judiciary Committee as lead counsel for nominations and so much more. True North Research published a primer on what is now likely the playbook for the D'ump 2.0 [...]

WTF has been Going on with Me- Nicole Sandler Show 12-3-24

 I feel that I owe you more of an explanation. As you well know by now, I've been having a rough time for the past couple of months, but because I've been such a wreck, I haven't been able to give you the details about how and why I got to such a dark place. It's been a while since my husband David Sloane joined me on the show. But he will be here today. Yes, the election took and continues to take a toll on our collective psyche, but there's much more than that doing on right [...]
