Emptywheel Fridays on the Nicole Sandler Show 4-11-25

Every Friday, I join with Marcy Wheeler of emptywheel.net to recap much of what happened during the week. As has been the case every week since the inauguration, this week was a doozy. But as Marcy says, “gravity hit this week, in a big way.” Trump had his “liberation day” tariff announcement, causing the stock market to crash. Then he “paused” it (but not really), causing the market to spike before it crashed again. The DumpsterCoaster is one nauseating ride. Things may be coming to a head in this administration’s clash with the judiciary branch. The Supreme Court unanimously said yesterday that they must [...]

Yippy Thursday with Howie Klein on the Nicole Sandler Show 4-10-25

   I'm not quite sure what "yippy" means, but the guy with the best words used it to explain (in Dump's case, that means 'lie') why he reversed himself on his tariffs yesterday. People were getting yippy? Maybe it means that they were pissed off that their portfolios and retirement accounts were hemorrhaging money? I wonder how they're feeling today... In case you weren't paying attention, after Dump 'paused the tariffs', the market went on a bit of buying spree yesterday. It seems obvious to me and many others that market manipulation and insider trading were a big part [...]

Economy Crashing Thursday with Howie Klein on the Nicole Sandler Show 3-6-25

     Watching the Dow crash for the third day in a row since the megalomaniac in chief unilaterally put 25% tariffs on imports from Canada and Mexico, the orange one tried to change course again. First he suspended tariffs on cars from both nations. Then he paused the tariffs on Mexico for a month. As the market kept hemorrhaging, the then paused the tariffs on Canada for a month too. The Dow regained about 100 points of today's loss, but still closed down 428 points for the day, adding to the more than 1200 point drop sustained over [...]

9-10-15 No Nicole Sandler Show again

One of the worst things about running a media empire from my home studio is that I don't have an IT staff.Last year, a generous listener sent me a donation to be used for a new machine from which to run my show. As he works with computers, he suggested I check out the Alienware line. They're gaming computers, and are able to handle a lot of stuff going on at the same time.Unfortunately, this computer has never worked right. Aside from the usual glitches (programs hanging up on start and non-responsiveness), my biggest problems were the audio issues.Regular listeners [...]
