UPDATE:  Sorry for the delay getting the show up.

Sammy’s on the road today in Providence R.I. at Netroots Nation.  Ahead, a couple of days jam-packed with interviews so tune in!  Click thru to find out who stopped by.  Use this post as today’s thread.

Adam Green (@AdamGreen) co-founder of Progressive Change Campaign Committee at BoldProgressives.org talks about role of PCCC, the problems with the democratic party, what progressive voices are calling for and how to get there.

Pat Garofalo (@Pat_Garofalo), economics editor at Think Progress, discuss the most under reported banking story right now: how states are using money received from Foreclosure Settlement to fill budget gaps instead of channeling it to stressed homeowners.

Live streamer Tim Pool (@Timcast), shares his thoughts on the protests in Montreal, how they differ from the Occupy movement here in the States.

David Dayen (@ddayen) from Firedoglake and Sam draw parallels between the evolution of Netroots Nation, the growth in online media and the political scene today — focusing on Eric Schneiderman in advance of his appearance at Netroots Nation.

And Majority Report Tech Guru Kyle Shank (@kyleshank) chats about Donate Your Account and his newest innovation Fans.com (not up yet!).

And a long time listener unveiled….hint: it’s not Eddie Pepitone!
