Remembering Jill Sobule on the Nicole Sandler Show 5-6-25

       The world lost one of its better inhabitants this week. On May 1, 2025, Jill Sobule was killed in a tragic house fire. Words can't express our loss. Jill was truly a remarkable human being. I'm heartened by the continuing show of love and support I'm seeing all over social media for the last few days from her friends and fans alike... I was lucky enough to be working at a radio station who played Jill's first hit single, "I Kissed a Girl," when it was released on her debut self-titled album in 1995. Over the [...]

Another F’n Monday with More F’n News – Nicole Sandler Show 5-5-2025

       We made it to another Monday after a weekend of more news that would be unbelievable at any other time in history, but here we are with a president (sic) who says he doesn't know if he must uphold the Constitution. We truly are living in Opposite World. Each Monday we check in with Jonathan Larsen of thefuckingnews.substack.com to talk about wtf is going on in this surreal world. Sadly, there's a whole lot to talk about today... I opened the show with a few more words about the loss of an amazing singer/songwriter/artist/extraordinary human being Jill [...]

Emptywheel Friday and RIP Jill Sobule on the Nicole Sandler Show 5-2-25

     Every Friday we end the week by spending an hour (usually a bit more) with Marcy Wheeler, one of the best independent journalists working today. You can and should read her daily at emptywheel.net and follow her on BlueSky at emptywheel.bsky.social. And, of course, listen to our weekly round up of some of the Trump shit that hit the proverbial fan that week. Today there was much more to discuss than we had time for. But we did speak quite a bit about Due Process and Trump's disregard of it and efforts to erase it from our [...]

A Free Press or Not on the Nicole Sandler Show 3-17-25

 Monday mornings always come with a rude awakening... it's that "here we go again" feeling as we embark on another week in a world we no longer recognize. With each Monday comes the now-routinely awful news of what happened over the weekend when we tried to look away from the train wreck happening constantly before our eyes. This weekend brought with it the moment we knew was coming while we hoped it wouldn't... when Trump and his administration openly ignored a court order. It involved due process for a group of men who Trump decided were terrorists, without [...]

3-15-21 Nicole Sandler Show – Monday Money, Music and More with Jill Sobule

Download here or click below to play, (or watch the video at the bottom of the page!)   It's Monday, the start of a new week. Joe Biden, Kamala Harris and their surrogates head out on the road today to "sell" the American Rescue Plan that he signed into law on Thursday. By now, many of us have seen those $1400 payments hit our bank accounts - or will soon. And hopefully, things will start to improve after four years of ugliness and widespread hate. I'll recap you on the latest news and share a few other items of interest... [...]

3-20-20 Nicole Sandler Show – What To Do When You’re Sheltering with Jill Sobule and More

Download here or click below to play   We're headed into the weekend when many Americans will be sheltering at home, either by official order or by common sense. Today, I have some ideas to help you through the next few days, anyway. First, my plea to go adopt or foster a shelter animal. I'll speak with animal advocate Wendy Schugar-Martin about a program she's hoping to convince our local shelter to adopt. If you're interested in the program she put together to help get animals out of the shelter even if they're closed to the public, you can email [...]

8-9-16 Nicole Sandler Show – Life Isn’t Fair

  If life were fair, we wouldn't be looking at a presidential election with the two worst possible candidates as the major party nominees. Sometimes you just get handed a shit sandwich. That's how I'm feeling right now. I'm off for a couple of days to meet with doctors and find the surgeon to remove the cancerous tumor that's growing in my left lung. Shit sandwich it is. Today, I spoke with two wonderful women who both had me laughing. Singer/songwriter and political animal Jill Sobule joined in. She's been promising for a few years now to record a new [...]
