Thursdays with Howie Klein on the Nicole Sandler Show – 10-3-24

 It's Thursday and Howie Klein of Down With Tyranny is back with us this week. We have lots to talk about from the Veep debate and just how creepy JD Vance is... and we'll get a status update on how the Blue America PAC endorsed candidates are faring. Plus a farewell to another friend. Getting old sucks, but it beats the alternative, I guess. My friend Julie Gordon died yesterday after a long battle with breast cancer. Variety posted a beautiful obituary... "Julie Gordon, Founder of the ‘Velvet Rope’ and A&R Exec, Dies at 65" I mentioned that [...]

About Last Night’s VP Debate on the Nicole Sandler Show – 10-2-24

 Last night we saw the first and only Vice Presidential debate of the season, and probably the last one for either VP or POTUS this time around. I'll share some clips and take your calls if you have a burning question or comment... I promised I'd post these two pictures side by side. The one on the left is JD Vance's official Senate portrait. The one on the right is his gaslighting version of it. I guess this is what he wants people to think he looks like. In his dreams... (Thom Hartmann was scheduled on today's show, [...]

Veep Debate Prep with Digby on the Nicole Sandler Show – 10-1-24

       Hopefully the gremlins have been eradicated and we're firing on all cylinders today... Governor, Coach and our next VP Tim Walz is in the spotlight today as tonight, he'll face JD Vance (or whatever he's calling himself today) in their only debate tonight. Trump is showing us how deranged, disoriented and demented he is every time he opens his mouth. The Middle East is a mess, as is Asheville, NC. But the good news is that my friend Mari Dew is alive and well... Heather Parton aka Digby is our guest today! Here's Digby's post about [...]

Thursday with News, Spocko & Dave the Worm from RFK Jr’s Brain- Nicole Sandler Show 9-5-24

   Sorry for my absence yesterday... still feeling the effects of a nasty infection from a few weeks ago, and trying to listen to my body and take better care of myself. Getting old sucks, but it beats the alternative! Anyway, I'm back today (with a follow up appointment with my doctor scheduled for tomorrow afternoon). It's Thursday, so Howie Klein is usually here... but I got a message from him a few minutes before showtime apologizing that he hadn't let me know that he had a doctor's appointment and wouldn't be able to be here today. Obviously I [...]

 We wrap up each week with Marcy Wheeler of emptywheel.net and a review of all that happened that week. Today it's Jack Smith's superseding indictment (predicted by Marcy last week), plus the big boring CNN interview, the Arlington Cemetery photo op debacle, RFk Jr & Tusli Gabbard and lots more... https://youtu.be/oYaCvGe30Hw

Emptywheel Friday – DNC Recap Edition on the Nicole Sandler Show 8-23-24

    Well, that was a convention for the history books! I apologize for the lack of an Emptywheel Friday show last week. I got really sick from a UTI that spawned an e Coli infection, something you do not ever want. Thankfully I was doing well enough this week to be able to share some highlights of the 2024 Democratic National Convention for the past few days, and today, was joined by Marcy Wheeler (emptywheel.net) for a complete postscript to the most entertaining and inspiring political convention I've ever watched. Strap in... we're not going back! https://youtu.be/-w4caIQryzM [...]

DNC Day 3 – “That’s My Dad” America Meets Tim Walz! Nicole Sandler Show 8-22-24

     I can't remember ever smiling so much while watching a political convention. I predict the top three names for baby girls born this year will be Hope, Joy and Kamala!! Night 3 of the party of the decade featured some real surprises: Stevie Wonder delivering heartfelt words and a rousing "Higher Ground." Sheila E was joined by John Legend to play Minnesota favorite son Prince's "Let's Go Crazy" before we officially met MN Gov Coach Tim Walz, the next Vice President of the United States. Speakers from Oprah Winfrey to Amanda Gorman to Hakeem Jefferies wowed the [...]

Rallies vs Lies and The Fucking News on the Nicole Sandler Show 8-12-24

      What a weekend this was! On Friday, I was at the Glendale AZ Kamala Harris/Tim Walz record-breaking rally. On Saturday night, I saw the Pretenders in concert (Chrissie Hynde is still amazing!), and I spent Sunday sick in bed... But today is Monday and there's lots of fucking news to get to, so the show must go on. As we do most Mondays, we're joined by Jonathan Larsen of thefuckingnews.substack.com to talk about what's happening in our fucking world...   https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=c93XlgqSH4A

Emptywheel Friday on the Nicole Sandler Show 8-9-24

  We made it to the end of another eventful week. The best news of the week is that Kamala Harris named her running mate, Minnesota Governor Tim Walz! He almost seems too good to be true! So, Marcy Wheeler of emptywheel.net and I  discuss our VP nominee, the so-called press conference Trump held yesterday at Mar a Lago, and the latest on the Jan 6 case which is back in Judge Tanya Chutkin's hands again... I'm heading out to the Phoenix  rally with Kamala Harris & Tim Walz... I'll try to post on Xitter, Facebook, Threads and Bluesky [...]
