New music this week from HUNNY, Descartes A Kant, Sweet (yes, that Sweet - "Fox on the Run" and "Ballroom Blitz" Sweet), blink-182, Vixen (yes, that Vixen), Joe Bonamassa, The Going Rate, Hiromi, Get Violet and much more! Enjoy!
I had a couple of great options for the Album Show this week, as HUNNY, Hiromi, Death Pill and Descarte A Kan all released new albums, any of which I highly recommend (the band Get Violet as of yet doesn't have a full album available). I've decided for this week we will feature the new album by HUNNY called "new planet heaven". This is a Los Angeles based indie band that's been around for a few years and this album is a product of honing their songwriting craft duyriing the pandemic (according to their website). The album is just over 1/2 an hour in length and packs quite a punch in my opinion, so I am sharing it with you.
The Album Show will run this Thursday October 12th at 9am and 9pm Pacific Standard Time.
For those of you who stay away from Spotify this playlist will be played this Wednesday October 11th at 2am, 6am, 10am, 2pm and 6pm PST. All of the songs I feature on Radio Free California are played as part of the regular rotation.
One last programming note: Every Sunday at 10am and again at 10pm we will feature our new show "10 at 10", where we play 10 (and sometimes 11) songs from a year we pick at random. Again, all times are PST.
Before I get into the stuff you really came for (i.e. me calling people names and riffing like an amateur John Oliver) let me talk about the undenyably horrific situation in Isreal.
I have no real good answers about who is right and who is wrong here. On the one hand, shelling a country with missiles and killing hundreds is never going to be a good thing, but neither is taking the land of people who have been living in the same spot for generations. When the Allies partitioned off a portion of Palestine for the Jewish people in an undenyable fit of guilt after their failure to stop the Holocaust they gave only a small portion of the land that Isreal claims today. I think that today the west mostly backs Isreal out of an extension of that guilt, because let's face it the man running Isreal is a criminal.
But it's not his fault that Hamas launched this attack.So why did Hamas launch this attach now? What's so important about now? People talk about how this was launched on the sabbath and a national holiday in Isreal but that hasn't worked out well for the attackers in the past. Everyone should keep in mind that it's not the Palestinians who are attacking Israel.
Hamas is to Palestine as the KKK is to Christianity.
It's also worth pointing out that one of Israel's top newspapers puts the blame squarely on the criminal currently running the country.
Two things worth noting: One is that right now we don't have a fully staffed chain of command for US forces in the region, and that is 100% the fault of the Republican Party, and one specific Senator who I call out below. But another thing I've seen a lot of print about lately is that some of the Top Secret/Classified information that was disseminated by the previous "President" was about troop movements and strengths of Isreal, and that by now it has probably been leaked all the way down to Hamas.
I don't know the truth of this and you probably don't either. But it should be looked into. Any bets as to if it will be?

Oh wait, didn't Jared Kushner already solve all of this shit?
Tommy Tubberville is a motherfucking traitor.
Jennifer Griffin might be working for the wrong network.
And this isn't Biden's fault you goddamned pricks.
So the people who backed him are now against him if he's an independent. Yup, that makes sense.
Setting aside the idea that war itself is a crime, it looks to me like both sides are committing war crimes.
Speaking of John Oliver, here he bring the receipts about the NRA of Home Schooling.
We are well past 50 shade of grey masochism here.
So, um, Dennis Hastert's Mini Me?
You've got to be fucking kidding me.
Yeah, I know this is an allocation from the previous administration, but how about just not spending the fucking money?
He dropped off of Forbes' list (and not for the first time), but I notice that an awful lot of what gets counted as wealth isn't actual money. Given his current issues with the values of property, he might be worth much less (worthless).
Makes you wonder if they're going to be able to teach about the Enola Gay.
This is a good move, but I'm troubled by the fact that it doesn't say they have to release any of the past data they covered up.
And becuase I love you, here is the video for the blink-182 song in this week's list. It's hilarious, especially if you know the original inspiration:
