It's also an opportunity for us to look back on how far we've come in only a few short months. Currently there are four shows up and running, two of which are produced on a weekly basis. And we've covered a range of topics, from the Occupation Meme to Gonzales, Abortion framing to Iraq funding and of course interviews with some great guests, including MSOC, Armando/Big Tent Democrat and NyBri just to name a few. Thanks to you, our loyal listeners, callers and supporters! We appreciate all the help and encouragement you have given us over the last few months and look forward to seeing you next week for fresh installments of your favorite shows and, of course, a few surprise and currently still top secret interviews we have in the works.

10 Minutes With: UnConventional's Raven Brooks!

June 22, 2007 @ 6:30pm PST/ 9:30pm EST
Listen Live.

Raven Brooks stops by to chat about the new print edition of UnConventional, YearlyKos: Citizens, Focus and Action, a project which chronicles the best of the blogosphere from last year's Yearly Kos.

The in-depth book covers the first YearlyKos convention. A team of four brilliant photographers led by Mona Brooks along with an editorial staff led by Hunter of Daily Kos fame, documented every aspect of the convention, from caucuses to keynote speeches, from volunteers to political heavy-hitters, so many Kos bloggers, and more.

The 292 page book combines complete convention coverage with personal essays about what being a progressive means, including submissions from Political Nexus hosts clammyc and thereisnospoon. All proceeds from the sale of this book will go to funding future YearlyKos conventions. The book is also available in ebook format.

The book is available here.

FrameWork - June 18: An American Capacity for Evil: Apathy in the face of Bush foreign policy

Listen in on a very interesting (warning: adults only - bad words used) conversation between thereisnospoon and clammyc and hosted by theKK. We discuss the fact that many American's can't understand or fathom that our country's administration can commit atrocities towards others or our citizens without justifying it as "noble"...

Spoon and clammy refer to recent Daily Kos diaries they wrote and debate what it will take for someone strong enough to wake America up to the acts done in their name, and if the country is ready to hear and accept that.
