Randi Rhodes Show with Nicole Sandler - October 21 2013 torrent

October 21, 2013
The Randi Rhodes Show

Randi's on vacation this week, but Nicole Sandler's sitting in with the latest news and some great guests too...

With the shutdown and debt ceiling crisis now over, the media are focusing on the rollout of Obamacare—and so far, it's been anything but smooth. President Obama addressed those issues this morning from the Rose Garden, and Nicole will go over them with you.

Even as the immediate danger is done, Congressional Republicans are still sending mixed signals about another shutdown. Congressman Alan Grayson (D-FL) will join us for a postmortem on the shutdown and his take on what we can expect in January when the same budget/debt-ceiling dance begins again.

One of the major things the fiscal shenanigans the GOP has prevented Americans from seriously dealing with is climate change—and it's an issue that no longer be ignored. Thom Hartmann will join Nicole to preview his new project 'Last Hours', and help you understand what you can do to help fight climate change.

Finally, George Carlin's daughter Kelly Carlin will inject some humor into the day and fill you in on her one woman show in NYC 'A Carlin Home Companion' and her weekly podcast 'Waking from the American Dream'.
