On the January 18th edition of the Murdock Report...

Hey folks,
My apologies for the lack of activity on the ol' bloggerino thingamajug. The Little Show That Could takes quite a big job to keep the standards we strive for. I will endeavor to be more diligent in the future.

All props to Mark Magus. The guy's a trooper,and I hope to have him on the show real soon.

Anyhow, We have couple great shows coming up. This week, we're talking about civility in the media
Craig Barnes, Common Cause National Governing Board Member. He's an author, playwright, radio host, and Founderof Common Cause Colorado he'll address how media influences people’s attitudes and the way we communicate with each other.

Well also have an interview with author Jessica Harris, whose book "High on the Hog", a new perspective on our country's food traditions and how African Americans helped shape everyone's diet, and how slavery altered theirs.

Next week, I'm really excited about. Steve Gregali from Mayor Slay's office will be on to give us a report on Slay's role at the US Confrerence of Mayors. Mayor Slay is the the Chair of the Jobs committee, so it will definitely an important meeting. Mayors do quite a lot for their communities at these types of events ecause they can from different realtionships with other cities, what works and what doesn't. Plus cities really need a new strategies to deal with a less friendly Congress who has more of an anti-urban bias.

Later in the show, we will do a preview of the State of The Union address with none other than Katrina Vanden Heuvel, editor & publisher of the Nation Magazine.
Persaonally, I'm almost giddy.
Gregali & Katrina on January 25th, Barnes & Harris on the 18th.

And I am outa here...
