12/28-WE'VE GOT A CONGRESS. WE'VE GOT A CLIFF. DO WE HAVE A CLUE?

Americans no longer expect to hear the real State-of-the-Union from the president. To learn the real State-of-the-Union you need to hear from Americans like professor-writer-scientist-inventor ADRIAN VANCE who has the nerve to ask if this president knows what planet this is and the knowledge to defend the question. Don't tune in if you're a nuts-and-bolts person interested only in details like whether the tax hikes will hit at the $250,000 income, $400,000 or something else. This one is for Americans deeply in love with and deeply concerned about this America.

12/27- IN STORY BOOKS, MOVIES AND A 1940'S CHILDHOOD; ONLY THE NATIONS THAT CAUSED SUFFERING SUFFERED THEMSELVES. WHY IS THIS HAPPENING TO US?

It may not be a torrent of thinking your clergyman would praise, but Barry is willing to admit he's spent a lot of time rejoicing at the misery of bad guys. He started as a preteen loving the fact that Hitler's Nazi troops who invaded Russia were freezing at the gates of Moscow. And Italian dictator Mussolini was fleeing for his life, unsuccessfully. And yes, all the boys in the neighborhood except one were all happy at the news that America had an atomic bomb and Japan had one less city. Barry feels, unlike those world-class villains, America deserves better than the financial misery that looms far beyond the little hiccup of the "fiscal cliff". Former New York Congressman JOHN LeBOUTILLIER makes a house call to give Barry some aid and comfort. LeBoutillier visits with Sara and Barry this evening.

12/26-SENATOR JOHN KERRY PULLS THE WRONG SOW BY THE EAR!

Sen. John Kerry will likely sail through the Senate confirmation process to become America's next Secretary of State. HUMBERTO FONTOVA, Cuban-born "freedom writer" relates some history, which, if all one hundred senators were either Humberto's or Sara's or Barry's; Kerry's name wouldn't even be uttered, much less nominated and confirmed. The Communists tried to trash the Nicaraguan Contras by alleging they were a bunch of drug-traffickers. Kerry lept into the publicity fray and denounced Cuban freedom-fighter Felix Rodriguez as a drug-runner himself. Rodriguez is the anti-Communist Cuban who was so grateful to be given American citizenship, he immediately volunteered for combat in Viet Nam, flying 300 helicopter combat missions. He's the jungle fighter who captured Che Guevara in Bolivia. Rodriguez immediately unhinged Sen. Kerry by demanding open hearings to clear his name and he even refused a lawyer and he refused immunity. Fontova visits with Sara and Barry this evening to report the blow by blow.

12/21 "I'M NOT SAYING WE'RE OVER THE CLIFF, BUT. WHAT A GREAT VIEW WE HAVE OF THE VALLEY!"/21-

Professor-Writer-Scientist-Inventor ADRIAN VANCE is among the knowing, caring Americans with much to contribute, and this evening, at Yule and Year's End, he does his contributing as he visits with Sara and Barry.

12/20-"YOU AMERICANS ARE GOING TO HAVE A BLACK PRESIDENT AND HE'S A COMMUNIST AND WAIT 'TIL YOU SEE WHAT HE DOES!"

Writer-columnist PAUL HOLLRAH stands as a pillar of journalistic integrity resisting any and all temptations to put a two and a two together in an effort to reach a conspiratorial number other than four. This time, however, Hollrah begs his readers' patience while he stretches a now-ancient blog on the subject of "The First Time I Ever Heard of Barack Obama" into a highly-conspiratorial interpretation of America's financial plight. Hollrah visits with Sara and Barry this evening.

12/19-CHESS ENTHUSIASTS OF ALL AGES ADMIRED THE YOUNG PRODIGY, BOBBY FISHER. PIANO-LOVERS ADMIRED THE YOUTHFUL GENIUS OF VAN CLIBURN. IF YOU HAVE ANY INTEREST AND REGARD FOR THE SECURITY OF THESE UNITED STATES, HEAR AND HEED RYAN MAURO ON CRN.

Barry and Sara are seldom unkind on the air. Their creed is, "Never hurt anybody, except on purpose!" However, this evening they offer two shows for the price of one. RYAN MAURO is National Security Analyst for RadicalIslam.org. He got his first serious job in international security at the age of sixteen. As you listen to this young man's abilities to understand and explain the ways and means of those who want to do AMERICA harm, try to remember the pathetic performances at the Congressional hearings of the momentarily-nameless State Department official forced to resign today as a result of the Benghazi Report. The next important election in almost two years away. But the kind of hope Ryan Mauro represents needs no refrigeration! Ryan visits with Sara and Barry this evening.

12/18-TWO IMPOSSIBILITIES: AN ITALIAN DESCRIBING AN ACCORDION WITHOUT USING HIS HANDS, AND WALKING THROUGH THE "LITTLE TOWN OF BETHLEHEM" WITHOUT AT LEAST SILENTLY HUMMING THE APPROPRIATE CAROL.

It's no secret who digs for our salt, our silver, our iron, our gold, etc. Who excavates one of the greatest treasures of all; our Christmas carols? It turns out the world's champion "archeologist" of Christmas music from the carols Hollywood and Tin Pan Alley put out currently clear back to the almost-lost mysteries of medieval Europe is New Jersey resident Ronald Clancy whose "detective" stories about chasing all our beloved carols back to their roots yield a power and pleasure equal to that of the carols themselves. How does he do it? What was his biggest surprise? Was he ever stumped? Sara is begging Barry not to sing any of the downright strange Christmas carols he picked up in Sweden. Barry has embraced the more realistic goal of limiting his own cultural contribution to the proceedings,as Ron Clancy visits with Sara and Barry this evening.
