Let’s cover just a few things that are on my mind today. Occupy Wall Street – Why are the Republicans worried or nervous about this movement? Why aren’t they more worried about corporate influence on our political system? One of the stories currently circulating is that this organic movement was really started by George Soros. There’s actually [...]

I was on Local Edge Radio yesterday. I chatted with Blake and Leslie. We discussed the death of Troy Davis. We have to fix this. We need a system that is fair for everyone. Our government shouldn’t be in the business of vengeance. We need to get into a position where the death penalty is [...]

I haven’t discussed women’s rights that much on this blog and for this I am sorry. Women’s rights should be important to everyone. If anybody’s liberty is in jeopardy, all of our liberties are in jeopardy. Currently, women’s rights are under a blistering assault by the GOP. Legislation both on the state and on the [...]

On Thursday I was on the radio with Blake and Lesley of Local Edge Radio. Now this was fun.

I was interviewed by Blake and Lesley on Local Edge Radio. We talked about how Robin Hood was not a Republican, labor arbitrage, corporate citizenship and much more. Enjoy.

For the last several months, I have been invited to be a guest on Local Edge Radio with Blake and Lesley. I’m on a Thursda’s at 4 pm (EST). This week – we discussed how we aren’t moving forward as a country. We get distracted by mosques at Ground Zero and some preacher thinking about [...]

Hey! It’s time for another show! I took a month off and there is a lot to talk about. Catch me tonight at 7 pm. This was a fun show. I hope that you enjoy it. If you have suggests about improving my show, please let me know.

After taking a two-week hiatus, I am back, rested and energized. As usual, I will review the week’s top stories.

My special guest is Meteor Blades of The Daily Kos. Join me at 3 [...]

Listen to Errington Thompson on Blog Talk Radio Today at 5 pm EST, I’ll have Heidi Shierholz from the Economic Policy Institute. I will also have Andy Coates from Physicians for a National Healthcare Program. This is going to be a GREAT show. Now, this is truly Progressive Radio.

Now, this is progressive radio. Enjoy.

I thought I was current with my shows. I’m not sure why I thought that. I’m never current. Hope for Haiti raises $57 million for Haiti. Military contractor DynCorp has lost millions in Iraq. James O’Keefe was arrested for trying to wiretap Mary Landrieu. This is really crazy. We have never gotten the real story [...]

I’ll be on BlogTalkRadio at 5 pm today. Give me a listen. I really appreciate it.

Errington starts the show by congratulating Aaron on his new full-time gig with Local Edge Radio, Monday through Friday 3 to 6 and then hits upon a few topical insights, starting with a private citizen’s billboard on Highway 1 in Wisconsin which suggests brazenly that we “impeach Obama.” The lawyer for this guy says it’s only [...]

Errington talks with two great guests on this show. The first is Linda Monk, constitutional scholar and author of The Words We Live By, who tries to make sense for us the very complicated Supreme Court decision regarding corporations. In what Ms Monk calls an “astounding example of judicial activism,” corporations have been deemed to [...]

This week’s show revisits two excellent interviews Errington had with Amy Goodman from Democracy Now, who is the author of Standing up to the Madness, and Media Matters’ Eric Boehlert. The first interview with Ms Goodman reminds us of the ongoing fight for our civil liberties, even here in these United States. Goodman chronicles the [...]

He’s back! The Errington Thompson Show was snowed in two weeks ago and MIA last week, but this week’s show brings back the progressive radio fun with New Year’s resolutions, the Blackwater travesty, healthcare and more. Errington’s guest is Mark Karlin from buzzflash.com. Among the highlights of their review of 2009 is a thoughtful discussion [...]

Now, this is GREAT radio. My special guest is Lance Ulanoff, Editor and Chief of PC Magazine. He is here to help us with Christmas electronic purchases. We’ll chat about the do’s and don’ts. Then I talk with Igor Volsky of the Wonk Room at Think Progress. He has been following the ins and outs [...]

I talk with Joan McCarter from the Daily Kos about what the heck is going on in the Senate. Joan has been following the ins and outs of the Healthcare legislation with posts two or three times per day. This is clearly worth a listen. Update from McJoan: According to USA Today, there’s a new, [...]

This snowy day in Asheville starts off with Obama’s huge speech and the 30,000 troop surge to Afghanistan. All the trust we have put into Obama… is this the right way to go? His speech about the troop increase was written and spoken well, as always, but should this be where we are headed? Errington’s [...]
