So, I think Thom Hartmann slipped up, yesterday... Online audio?

..He was talking about "Free Speech TV," and online audio resources
like WCPT-FM (Chicago's Progressive Talk) and AM 950 KTNF (St.
Louis Park, Twin Cites AM) and I think he conflated Minneapolis
and Milwaukee, accidently, but he included, "Milwaukee," when he was
naming off existing progresive media sources...

I know there's a station in Madison.... but what other good audio

resources are out there....? I have ear buds at work and end up listening to

a lot of music, plus Archive.Org (books on tape kind of stuff) and old

time radio detective fiction..

If there really is a "liberal talk" program within SE WI tune in range, I'd
like to know about it, though.

Two possibilities are WORT in Madison, which I'm sure you know about, and WOJB in Reserve, WI (Hayward area). The latter is a station run at the Lac Courte Oreilles Reservation, and it's pretty amazing. In particular, they have one interviewer, Eric Schubring, who oughtta be on national media.

Check it out.

Interview with Kathleen Vinehout and Ed Garvey from last spring looks like something I'd want to hear...

I checked and that station flipped to all-country music, like, two weeks ago...

Not my favorite kind of music (I'm more into Reggaeton and Hip Hop/RnB), but it's interesting to find out what other folks tune in to, and the range of musical interests.

A couple of more good links for all kinds of pass-the-time listening and learning:

http://tunein.com/radio/The-Great-Detectives-of-Old-Time-Radio-p329374/

and don't miss the fist pull-down menu option, here, "Audio Books" -- along with many, many recoreded lectures/courses
