Since his early teens in the 1960s, activist John O'Brien has fought for causes he believes in — gay rights, farmworkers' rights, and dozens of other movements championed by progressives.

So between our jobs kicking our asses, our blog getting blacklisted by Google (as well as our Twitter account), we had some issues getting the show out last week. But we think the extra time was useful as we have a jam packed show. We apologize for it being a little long but hopefully you will be pleased with our effort. We have lots of brand new music from Bell X1, The Beanstalk Library, Audrye Sessions, and Salim Nourallah. Just to make sure you recognized some bands we though in Architecture In Helsinki, Wilco, and even a tune from a rock legend. And to stay close to our roots, we have two D.C. bands, Jukebox the Ghost and Casper Bangs. And with that, on with the show… Ep 31 - 128 Kbps MP3 [123.3 MB] 01. Jukebox The Ghost - “Good Day” 02. Spoon - “My Mathematical Mind” 03. Audrye Sessions - “Turn Me Off” 04. The Beanstalk Library - “This Line Is Not For me” 05. Salim Nourallah - “Pictures Collected” 06.
