At least you have a morning show. KPFT plays Hee Haw music with Fill Edwards.

Nativo Lopez has been appearing on Spanish language radio stations every
day - several times a day... he sounds really good.
Infact, if you speak Spanish, I suggest tune into Spanish language talk
shows esp. morning and rush hour
afternoon/evening... they sound way way
better than anything Pacifica (KPFA in my area) is doing these days...
While huge numbers of working class immigrants are drawing serious
connections between how they are treated, the so-called "free market"
economy etc.... KPFA's morning show's Phillip Moldrey had on some dude from
the Brooking Institute (the Democratic Party's "think tank" that along with
other things wants to export "democracy" to the mid-east, and create "Muslim
leaders" who will do their bidding) about how to rejuvenate the free market
or something like that...
I tuned him out and tunded into some good Spanish language talk shows ---
all about May Day, organizing for a huge turnout, serious and sometimes not
so serious discussion about undocumented workers, la familia and so on...
Thank God Thank God Gracias A Dios I lived in Mexico for a couple of years
and learned Spanish... never have i been so grateful for that
as now...!
