“Level 5 Irrationality in the Wake of Harvey & Irma,” TODAY at 3 p.m. ET (12 p.m. PT)

On today’s show we’ll look at three types of irrationality on display in the wake of these destructive hurricanes. Is the irrationality more destructive than the hurricanes? More stories, too. See Program Notes, below, for all the stories, etc., I plan to discuss.

“Is Fake News a Fake Issue?” TODAY at 3 p.m. ET (12 p.m. PT)

Some argue that worries about “fake news” are just a pretext for imposing censorship or excluding consideration of non-leftist viewpoints. Is that all there is to the “war on fake news”? This and more on today’s show. See Program Notes, below, for all the stories, etc., I plan to discuss.

“A Second Conversation with Hayley Mary of The Jezabels,” TODAY at 3 p.m. ET (12 p.m. PT)

amy-and-hayley-nov-2016

I had the pleasure of again speaking with Hayley Mary, lead singer of The Jezabels, as the band kicked off the North American leg of their tour in support of “Synthia.” Another wide-ranging discussion including music, philosophy, politics & more!

If you like The Jezabels, or you would just enjoy hearing what a thoughtful, talented Australian thinks about topics like fossil fuels, money, and American politics, I think you’ll really enjoy this interview.

Join me live in the chat room at BlogTalk Radio while I play this interview for you!
