This vibe continues throughout the day with a positive, biblical message of God's truth in the work of Jesus Christ. It was just the encouragement I needed throughout the last couple of years. However the station has slipped into some anti-biblical content in it's legal segments by going political. I was fine with the programming when it lined up with God's word but I can't support this rhetoric. After emailing back and forth with the CEO I am left with no choice but to change to a station that is TRULY unashamed of the Gospel.

KGO has a long and storied history of talk radio in the Bay Area. When we first arrived in CA to…read morelive KGO was a typical ranting and raving, insulting and hanging-up talk radio station like most of them in the USA. Then some time in the late 70's and the 80's there was a blossoming of sorts where the talk radio announcers began to actually listen to and respond to the callers and there was actually some value to listening to the station. All through the 90's the station got incrementally better with the addition of Michael Krasny, Gene Burns, John Rothmann, Gil Gross and Pat Thurston. Then for some reason they tore it all down, fired everyone and started putting boring canned content on and ignoring the local talk radio. Currently KGO has the best mix of Middle-of-the-Road to Democratic talk radio that you will find nowhere else, certainly not in the red-states. These two, John Rothmann and Pat Thurston make a great team. but they have the least number of weekly hours. It feels to me like KGO is feeling the pressure from the Right-wing media corporate headquarters. It is a precious commodity - so listen, and if you like what hear, call in the to the management and demand more!

Hearts of Space started out as a late night radio show in the Bay Area and became nationally…read moresyndicated. Back when I worked in Sausalito, my office was in the same building as HOS and I used to walk by all the time to peer into their dark windows (it was hard to see anything). Apparently, after I left, they also moved. Anyone with an internet connection can listen to HOS at www.hos.com and for a fee, you can listen to it all the time. It still comes on late Sunday nights (with free access), which for me is the perfect time for space music. It's music I can fall asleep to, dream to, and truly relax to. I wouldn't want to listen to it all the time (too relaxing), but there's something very special about space music. Free of human voices, it does transport you to a different realm. You have to listen to it to understand what I mean. Set aside what you're doing and just listen. The host of the program sounds like Rod Serling, too. It's "slow music for fast times."

Hearts of Space has become a constant force in my life since discovering it while attending college…read morein OK. I grew up a fan of ambient music after discovering some used Pete Namlook CD's in my local record store. After that, my music collection was built primarily around the ambient/space music genres. It was lonely being an ambient music fan in Oklahoma, so I was shocked and thrilled when I stumbled upon my first HOS show on NPR. Since then it has become an integral part of my Sunday evening, and now with their online service I can enjoy their extensive library of shows any time of the week. Obviously it helps if you are a fan of this style of music, though I don't always find myself enjoying every show. BUT, what I really appreciate about HOS is their diversity within the genre. If I don't like a show one week, I'll tune in the next week and may find myself loving everything they're playing. Each week is different, and regardless of what they spin, the time, effort, and love they put into each show is obvious. This is quality radio. I am so grateful for HOS.

It's not like the Novato Advance of old days which was…read moretruly filled with local information about Novato. Now, for the most part, it's nothing but ads. Sometimes it's only four pages long. The editor/owner's opinions many times contain inaccurate and biased information. About 4 years ago it just appeared on our driveway for free. That lasted about 2 years, then, like a miracle, it disappeared. During that same time it was further downsized as the name Novato Advance was removed and it was given the generic name of Marinscope to cover all of Marin, which it was basically already doing. Let me ask you. Is this any way to run a newspaper? I think not.

I just read "The Berkeley Barb and the Trump raid" commentary by Sherman R. Fredrick in this week's…read moreMarinscope newspaper. I was very surprised of how he underestimated (and actually made light of) the impact of classified documents - especially the top-secret documents - that quite possibly dealt with international intelligence involving hidden operatives and nuclear secrets. Is he saying that he actually trusts this guy in keeping this national security information under wraps with his track record in this regard? The FBI "raid' was done out of necessity because Trump had taken possession of them illegally, stalled for over a year, and then wouldn't co-operate fully with giving these many documents to the National Archives where they legally belonged. He lied to the FBI that he had given them all of the documents and actually had about twice as many that he had secretly detained. The actual search was done without the agents wearing the usual "FBI" jackets and was not announced publicly by the FBI (it was Trump himself). The subsequent information that has been made public was planned to be kept secret as part of an on-going investigation until both Trump filed legal requests to get more details. Fredrick stated that, as far as Trump possibly having "declassified" these many documents, "well have to see about that". Seriously? From what has been indicated, many of these documents were so sensitive that the agents who handled them didn't have the clearance to inspect them and they certainly couldn't be declassified without thorough review. Besides, if they were all properly "declassified", they all would be available to the public. This dangerous mishandling of top secret documents by the former president has already cause irreparable harm. There has to be an assumption by the CIA that it is quite possible that many of these national secrets got into the hands of our foreign adversaries. If field intelligence operatives have to be pulled (or are assassinated), it could greatly disrupt both our nation's investigative methods and the accuracy of current national security knowledge. ~ Duane Van Dieman, Mill Valley

Clearly they have a particular market in mind with programming that includes the Fab Five's straight guy makeovers, 'Project Runway,' self-proclaimed D-list celebrity/fag hag Kathy Griffin's stand-up comedy concerts (I find her to be extremely unfunny, although the reality series that put her private life under a microscope touchingly exposed a complex personality beneath her nipped-and-tucked facade), and endless airings of 'The Birdcage.' Certainly 'Inside the Actor's Studio,' with egregiously pompous host James Lipton, is geared towards theatrical types (despite the questionable inclusion of subjects like J Lo and Rosie O'Donnell). More puzzling is who they hope to reach with the rest of the schedule - reruns of 'The West Wing' and 'Law & Order: Criminal Intent' (they share parentage with NBC), celebrity poker competitions, and a seasonal series like 'Great Things About the Holidays,' the type of dreck in which E! and VH1 specialize. When Bravo takes a misstep, it tends to fall off a cliff - 'Situation: Comedy' - in which two teams of writers competed to win a time-slot on NBC with comedies so dismal they made the current 'Must See TV' Thursday line-up look good - was so dreadful it quickly was relegated to Fridays at 7:00pm, and few viewers cared what 'Being Bobby Brown' was like, or to what depths his one-time pop diva wife Whitney Houston has sunk. There was a time when Bravo showed promise, but lately the infomercials for skin care products and bodybuilding programs they air during the morning hours sometimes are the best thing they broadcast all day. Update 6/23/06: Bravo actually has started advertising itself as the gayest network on TV. It's nice to see them finally come out of the closet.
