Best of the Left Podcast show

Best of the Left Podcast

Summary: This podcast is a beautifully executed compilation combining the absolute best in left-leaning political news, commentary and occasional comedy with great music to pull it all together. Each edition I choose a political theme and deliver a variety of stories and perspectives from an array of sources on that theme. Sources for this compilation show include Countdown with Keith Olbermann and The Rachel Maddow Show from MSNBC. NPR shows such as It's All Politics, On the Media & Radiolab from WNYC, This American Life & Wait wait don't tell me! from WBEZ, Fresh Air, All things considered, and just the NPR Story of the Day. I also include independent productions such as Ring of Fire with Bobby Kennedy, The Young Turks, Thom Hartmann, Democracy NOW!, Jimmy Dore Show, Citizen Radio, Bill Moyers Journal, Media Matters Minute, Need to Know, The Political Scene from the New Yorker, Counterspin from FAIR.org, Mother Jones Radio, Slate magazine, Randi Rhodes, Radio Ecoshock, Le Show with Harry Shearer, The Moth podcast, Real Time with Bill Maher, The Onion Radio News, The Onion News Network, The Daily Show, The Colbert Report and Green.tv. If you like any of the above programs it's almost certain that you will love Best of the Left! Even if you already listen to all of the sources above you'll still like BotL because it is a show that is truly greater than the sum of it's parts. By the way, this is an ENHANCED PODCAST with cool features built in which is fun but that means that it's not compatible with everyone's audio player.
