7-27-16 Nicole Sandler Show – Black and White World

  Yesterday, I talked about working out the conflicts of our inner voices, though some people thought I "went too far." Others thanked me for being "spot on." All I know is all I know. Today, it's that the world continues down its pathway of madness. People hear what they want to hear instead of actually listening to what's being said. We talk past one another instead of with each other. Until we learn to shut up and listen, we're bound to continue making the same mistakes. Today, I talked a bit about that disconnect. I praised the celebration of [...]

7-26-16 Nicole Sandler Show – Conflict Resolution… or Not

  I know I'm not alone this week. I'm conflicted. There's as much conflict going on in my mind as there is in the Wells Fargo Arena, the ironic name of the arena where the Democrats are nominating Hillary Clinton as their nominee to run against the Republican Donald Trump. I feel like I'm writing this in the middle of a bad dystopian novel in which the two most hated people in the nation are vying for the presidency. Oh, wait. Anyway, today, I let the conflict play out. I offended some people, and probably confused many more. Welcome to [...]

7-18-16 Nicole Sandler Show – Circus Maximus

  As the GOP circus gets underway in Cleveland and the world at large continues its descent into insanity, I've been dealing with my own personal hell. After a heart attack scare last Thursday, I've been on a roller coaster ride - and I HATE roller coasters. The heart scare, which turned out not to be a heart attack at all, was perhaps a blessing in disguise. The x-ray that was to see if my heart was swollen or enlarged instead showed a mass on my left lung. The pulmonologist wanted a PET-CT scan done, but United Healthcare had other ideas. [...]

7-12-16 Nicole Sandler Show – Viva La Revolution

It was NEVER about Bernie; it was about his ideas. But today, the vitriol from some of his "supporters" is ugly and stinging. Take, for example, this message I received from a now-former listener. I am very sad and angry knowing one of my heroes is just like all the rest. I foolishly believed that Bernie Sanders was someone I could trust and believe in only to find he's no different then any other politician. Bernie is dead to me as is his movement and any policy or person he puts forward for office in the future. I had intended [...]

7-11-16 Nicole Sandler Show – Something’s Got to Give

I know it's only Monday, but this has been a really tough week. Crazy enough to give someone a heart attack. Or not. In the last two weeks alone we've seen - literally seen, thanks to all the videos - the most horrific examples of human behavior play out in front of us like unpleasant movies. On June 28, we watched the horror in Istanbul as a group of mass murderers blew up the airport, killing at least 45 people and injuring hundreds more. Since it's the video era, we even got to see the third terrorist blow himself up. The red [...]

7-6-16 Nicole Sandler Show – History Keeps Repeating

  We awoke to an awful déjà vu this morning. Another black man was killed by cops in a show of excessive, brutal police force. Alton Sterling, a 37-year old father of five, was selling CDs in front of a convenience store, something he did regularly to help support his family. Someone called the cops on him, and now Alton Sterling is dead. We are talking about it because someone captured the shooting on video. And now a second video has surfaced. And tomorrow, the trial begins for the most senior of the cops who was involved in the wild [...]

7-4-16 Nicole Sandler Show – Best of 4th Of July with Siegelman, Sanders & Teachout Too

Happy Independence Day! Nicole is taking the day off, preparing for tomorrow's big official launch of the new studios and Randi Rhodes' return! On today's Best Of program, we go back to Sept 26, 2014 for a conversation with Bernie Sanders as he was still deciding whether or not to launch his bid for the presidency August 8, 2014 with Zephyr Teachout as she was taking on NY Gov Andrew Cuomo in a primary challenge.

7-1-16 Nicole Sandler Show – Making History

  That's my daughter carrying that awesome sign that reads "History says change happens. Make some!" She was probably 12 years old at the Occupy Ft. Lauderdale march that I dragged her to with me at the height of the Occupy movement. Just look how far we've come since then. Today, we talked about making history as we're making history. Boca Britany Somers joined us in the new studios today as our first in-studio guest! She's welcome any time, but since there was major news for the transgender community and the rest of the world this week, I invited Brit in to [...]

6-30-16 Nicole Sandler Show – The Politics of Politics

  On today's show, we continued the discussion about the way forward for the political revolution that Bernie Sanders has so amazingly, energetically, passionately and historically led for the past year or so. It must evolve. The question is what form it will take. After a frustrating Twitter conversation last night - 140 characters at a time is no way to discuss politics - I invited listener Kim to call in to today's show to talk things through. The point of contention was the vitriol with which many Sanders supporters now regard Elizabeth Warren. I won't try to paraphrase here [...]
