Radio Free California Episode 2427, changes to our programming, why H.E.H. Biden shouldn't drop out, cheap shots and more!

Fantastic week for new music from Tom Morello, Fantastic Negrito with Sting, The Warning, Redd Kross, Jahanah Camille, Chelsea King, Aaron Frasier, Loma, Closebye and much more. Enjoy!

ALBUM SHOW NOTES

This week for The Album Show I've decided to play the new full album by The Warning, "Keep Me Fed". This band is a hard working hard rocking power trio of Sisters originally from Mexico (Most of their songs are in English) - Daniela “Dany” [guitar, lead vocals, piano], Paulina “Pau” [drums, vocals, piano], and Alejandra “Ale” Villarreal [bass, piano, backing vocals]. Over the past few years they have opened for Guns N' Roses, Foo Fighters, Muse, appeared on Metallica's "Blacklist" Compilation performing "Enter Sandman", and their new album is worth the attention.

The Album Show will plays on Thursdays at 9am and 9pm Pacific Standard Time.

Other great albums worth your time this week are: Chelsea King's "I'll Meet You in My Dreams", the new self-titled album by Redd Kross (yes, that Redd Kross), Kate Nash's "9 Sad Symphonies", "Notes from a quiet life" by Washed Out, and "Mission to Mars" by Pride & Shame - which is a concept album about an alternative history of the NASA program in the 1960's, which is much better than how I've described it.

RFC 2427

For those of you who stay away from Spotify the current week's additions will be played on Wednesdays. This is a change from prior programming: what we're going to do going forward is just play the music added this week only. Every other day will be the usual rotation, but we set aside Wednesdays for just the new additions for the week. This week that's 45 songs, which we will play in the same order that they're in on the Spotify playlist of the same name up at the top of this post. So if you tune in at just about any time on Wedmesday you will hear the whole playlist.

10 at 10

One last programming note: Every Saturday at 10pm and again on Sunday at 10am and 10pm we will feature our show "10 at 10", where we play 10 (and sometimes 11 or even 12!) songs from a year we pick at random. Again, all times are PST. Last week we featured a selection of songs from 1974 and for next Sunday's show we're going to feature a small selection of songs from... well you'll have to tune in to find out! We also run the show at a "secret" time on Saturdays.

As always, you can go to https://global.citrus3.com:2020/public/radiofreecalifornia to listen to the station, and there is an imbed below. And did you know the station is available as an app? It's only for Google Play (sorry iphone users - Apples terms and conditions were too restrictive for me) but you can listen on your phone at your convenience too.



To everyone saying "We need to replace Biden!" We did this dance once before when LBJ was President. That gave us 8 years (almost) of Motherfucking Nixon. Keep calm - he had a bad night. In case you didn't notice, Biden rebounded like mad the next day.

What fewer people are talking about is at that same (non-moderated) debate, Trump didn't directly answer a single question, and lied at least once every time he opened his mouth. As I've seen around the internet, Just because you have concers about Albert minding the Batcave at 81 years of age, you don't replace him with The Joker. Actually, comparing Trump to The Joker is doing The Joker a disservice.

And to you Republicans, it seems to me that the problem you have with Biden's age is the color of his Vice President's skin. Yeah, I said it.

As for this whole Presidential Immunity crap, we are now a country of laws, except for 1 person. Wasn't that the whole point of kicking out England's ass in the first place? You know what prevents Biden from firing the entire Supreme Court now?

NOTHING.

Cheap Shots:

I never even knew that Kevin Conroy, one of the best people to portray Batman, was gay. He left behind a cartoon for us to read. I highly recommend it. And yes, I'm on Tumblr.

Well I guess in Oklahoma everyone is going to start measuring things in Cubits.

So Atlantic Hurricanes in June is now a thing.

A point never even looked at here - that people of her generation and after aren't having kids because they can actually see how fucked up things are.

Of course I'm going to cheer on my fellow Bruin.

Project 2025 is the Republican Mein Kampf. That isn't hyperbole - read it yourself. (I don't link directly to it for reasons having to do with botsd and e-mail spamming, but what I link to does).

With apologies to Key and Peele, Biden's Anger Translator.

Maybe this means he can be prosecuted somewhere other than Florida.

Shorter: "We're just not going to list all the stuff we think you won't like."

Pity you're not one of the Judges actually involved in all this.

So let me see if I have this straight: You took the case ahead of schedule so that you could rule on the question, and now you're sending it back to the lower courts so that they can determine how it works? Which will be appealed to you again? Oh and by the way, Absolute Immunity is now a thing? So do we now address President Biden as His Elected Highness?


I love John Fetterman. I don't always agree with him, but his is a much needed voice.

I use this a lot lately. To quote the Force Ghost of Anikan Skywalker, Incorrect.

Come on Joe, we need this.

By the way, in the same judgement, the Chief Justice has already paved the way for Trump to have all of the federal cases against him dropped if he takes office again.


This won't get anywhere in this congress, but you go girl.

Anyone else remember that this is THE FUCKING MOMENT in "Frost/Nixon" where it all turned?

And because I love you, a song that I've had in my head for the past few days. A remake of an Iggy Pop Song:
