On the Radio: Barr Campaign and Energy Movies

Today on Mid Stream Radio, we have a bit of a treat for you, should you care to stop by. (1 pm eastern, 10 am pacific today.) In the second half, Cindy and I will be talking to Derek Barr, representative of the Bob Barr campaign. (And probably only by coincidence, Bob’s son.) We’ll be talking to him about the campaign and asking some questions on issues raised by readers here at TMV. If you already have, or stop by early and pick up, a nickname for the live web chat at the BTR homepage, you can contribute questions and comments during the call.

Before that, however, during the first half we will talk to author and professional movie critic Betty Jo Tucker of Movie Addict Headquarters. With energy policy on everyone’s mind these days, Betty Jo will be going over a brief history of movies dealing with the oil industry, coal mining, nuclear energy, etc. and discuss how Hollywood has treated these industries over the years, as well as how these perceptions may have helped shape America’s opinions on them.

See you on the radio!
