Cognitive Dissonance, 1.08.10

Hooray for a redesigned website! This week's show was a blast as Cognitive Dissonance welcomed back the Angry Malcontent and the Fundits. The Malcontent ranted about the new direction terrorism may take and the Fundits discussed the merits of teabagging. I also had progressive blogger and podcaster Matt Stannard of Shared Sacrifice on the show to discuss the premiere of his new show on KOCA Jan. 10th.

And did I mention local band The Blue Routes? According to their website, The Blue Routes sound like: "A funk machine. With reggae underwear. And a blues t-shirt." I played two of their songs and they made the mad dash to the studio to premiere "A Tighter Loose" right after playing a three-hour set at Coal Creek Coffee in downtown Laramie. The Blue Routes members are: Micah Wyatt, Jascha Herdt, and Phillip Cleveland

D-baggery reigned supreme, with Brit Hume of Fox News, David Letterman and Rudy Giuliani taking the crown.
