This morning, it was my great pleasure to be on KPFK (90.7 FM in Los Angeles) as a guest on Sonali Kohatkar’s radio show, Uprising, to talk about FOX ATTACKS! Obama part 2: Spreading the Virus and FOX's effect on the traditional media. This was my first radio interview ever, and you can probably tell that I was pretty nervous. There were a few points I wish I had made or made better, but for my first radio interview, I suppose it went okay, and Sonali definitely made me feel at home. But it sure can be tough when you’re trying to be clear, concise, and impactful without saying “um” when you have all that adrenaline going and your mind is racing!

As I was waiting for Sonali’s producer to call me in, it was funny to think that at the same time last year, I was sitting in a barn in a small town in northern Santa Barbara County milking goats, and now I was about to do a live interview on one of the country’s most important independent progressive radio networks.
