The show is “live” to tape (fresh content, of course!) as Sam is traveling to Las Vegas.  He’ll be back live Thursday.

Writer for the Nation, and Citizen Radio co-host Allison Kilkenny (@allisonkilkenny) talks Occupy Wall Street; ‘sleepful protests’, the NYPD and preparations for the large scale May Day actions.  Also, the 99% Spring; who they are and how they tie into the broader goals of the Occupy movement? Click thru for more information about upcoming OWS actions.  Members, you’ll hear Ed Wytkind, President of the AFL-CIO’s Transportation Trades Department, discuss the stymied Transportation Bill;  the threat to our Federal Mass Transit program; the push to privatize; the tricky language buried in the bill and the impact on our economy.
