I'm doing KIRO Seattle (Mike Webb) again tonight 10pm PST

[WilliamPitt]

http://www.mikewebb.org/

We'll be talking Wilson and Thielmann, he already has my new essay, and we're going to flush this Wilkinson issue once and for all.

If someone can figure out how to make the listen link work, I will worship them.

[LisaM]

1. Yay, I will be listening!

Mike Webb has just been great lately.

I don't know how to do the listening link but last time you were on, some non-Seattle people were able to listen, so maybe they'll see this and tell what they did. KIRO's website is http://www.kiroam.com

:hi:

[Wonk]

50. mp3 of (most of) it for those who missed it

5.5 M

[kaitykaity]

51. Thank you thank you thank you . . .

listening live on a 56k is a buffering pain in
the butt.

thank you.

[Andy_Stephenson]

52. Thanks Wonk

God I sound so gay! I hate my recorded voice.

[Wonk]

53. I did about 40 edits because my connection kept lagging out....

I hope you only notice 3 or 4.

I WANT WILL TO GET INTERVIEWED BY AARON BROWN OR WOLF BLITZER. HE DESERVES THAT KIND OF MAINSTREAM COVERAGE BY NOW.

eom

[Andy_Stephenson]

54. I agree!

How bout O'Riley...Pitt shouting down O'Riley would be awesome.

[Ilsa]

2. I have looked althrough

his site and cannot find the link to listen on-line, but I wish I could. Where is the listen link on the KIRO site? (I just found it on that link, but didn't have that link before.)

[SOteric]

3. It worked for me.

I clicked the link in Will's post. It led me to a generic white page with "The Mike Webb Show" at the top and a microphone in the upper right-hand corner.

Inside the outlined box are 5 text lines. The fifth, bottom line has the audiophone symbol. Click the symbol and Winamp fired up with an add for the show and a short segment of a previous broadcast.

'Course, lucky me, I can just flip on the radio and tune in 710.

[ConsAreLiars]

4. Use this link

from the http://www.mikewebb.org/ site:
http://stream.mikewebbsite.com:8000/listen.pls

It streams whatever is on KIRO at the time, so you can test it before this evening. It requires WinAmp or Realplayer. I use WinAmp, but for it to work you have to configure it to handle .pls file types by selecting options - preferences. Then within the preferences window choosing setup - filetype. Make sure pls (at the bottom of the list) is selected. Then try the second link above to test.

[WilliamPitt]

5. I am now worshipping you

:)

[ConsAreLiars]

6. Glad to help

And a plug for the Mike Webb show. He's bright, articulate, and righteous.

[WilliamPitt]

10. kick

Mike Webb has been a staple of my day for months. This is the type of guy who we need to hear more of around America - terribly intelligent, witty, and his politics aren't so shabby either. :)

[Terwilliger]

11. You hear Wilson on Democracy Now?

They replayed Wilosn's speech this morning.

[WilliamPitt]

12. Damn

Missed it. :(

[Terwilliger]

14. they archive their segments every day

on Real Player

www.democracynow.org

[Andy_Stephenson]

[TeeYiYi]

18. I'm linked and ready to listen to a great show . . .

Thanks for the heads up. :hi:

TYY

[WilliamPitt]

19. They haven't called me yet

I hope you didn't wait for nothing. No one is answering the phone there. :(

[TeeYiYi]

20. They'll call. .......n/t

TYY

[WilliamPitt]

22. Has the show started?

I can't get the God damned player to load. :(

[TeeYiYi]

23. Yes it has started and he's talking about you.

Clicking on the link should launch whatever player you have installed. Either RealPlayer or Windows Media Player. I'm using RealPlayer.

TYY

[WilliamPitt]

24. It does neither.

I get an 'Open File' window, I click to open the file, and it goes pzzzt.

[TeeYiYi]

25. Shit. Mac or PC? ....n/t

TYY

[TeeYiYi]

27. Now it's no longer working for me. Aaaaargh.

It just quit. And it won't restart. I've got to figure something else out before I miss the show.

TYY

[Wonk]

30. Just cut out for me too. Must be getting swamped. I'll mp3 it if I can

so maybe you guys could give it just a little less traffic in the hopes that I can get the whole show?

[TeeYiYi]

31. I'm up and running smooth now.

I adjusted the connection speed in preferences and restarted the player. Hopefully it will stay connected without blips.

TYY

[WilliamPitt]

26. OK, I fixed it

:)

[ConsAreLiars]

28. open winamp

then drag and drop this into it:
http://stream.mikewebbsite.com:8000/listen.pls

[ConsAreLiars]

Mike and Will are both great!

[Andy_Stephenson]

34. I can't record it!

WAAAAAAA...But yall sound great.

[Wonk]

38. I'm getting (most of) it. Check this thread for an mp3 later.

Hey Andy! You're the first caller! Cool!

[Cascadian]

35. Listening right now!

Keep it going, William! Don't let up. The more people know the truth then the outrage will grow. Those in D.C. will no longer be able to ignore us!

John

[barbaraann]

36. God Bush and Cheney is on now.

Cool.
(He's a DU poster for those who might not know.)

[WilliamPitt]

37. YEEEHAW!

[barbaraann]

39. This is fun---luckily I can get it on the radio...

I don't know how to do the high tech stuff.

[Andy_Stephenson]

40. I didn't sound like a hick did I.

Nice talking with you Will.

[Pobeka]

41. No, you sounded very intelligent.

At least from Tacoma ;-)

[Andy_Stephenson]

43. Hi Tacoma!

:hi: Welcome to DU!

[Pobeka]

46. Thanks, nice to be here

I don't post a lot, been here several months. A real *lurker*. But I've been trying to toss some thoughts into the black box voting discussion lately.

[Andy_Stephenson]

48. I saw you posted in my thread earlier.

Well I am glad your posting now...Your quite astute.

[barbaraann]

42. DU getting some good plugs now.

[Andy_Stephenson]

44. Tear your own teeth out?

[WilliamPitt]

45. Sure. Bring a bib.

:)

[Andy_Stephenson]

47. With a lobster on it....

hey BTW thanks for the validation of my point about a "Terror Attack"

You rock!

[Pobeka]

49. Good going all you guys!!!

Very lucid conversations -- wooo hooo!!

[DemoTex]

56. Just missed Will. Here is what I said to Mike (later in the show):

1. Mike, I consider myself an old friend of Will Pitts. I've been on the Democratic Underground with him since the beginning. I am DemoTex, the Democrat from Texas.

2. I think George Bu$h is a liar because -- you played the tape -- he claims to be from Texas and is not. Did you see the headline in the South African paper? Texas Village is Missing It's Idiot. We do not miss him.

3. Bu$h is a liar on his AWOL. He missed a year of duty. (Mike asks me a question here). I told Mike that I was a Vietnam Vet with 250 combat missions, mostly over the Ho Chi Mihn Trail at night. I got into Bu$h's failure to report to Lt. Col. Turnipseed of the Alabama Air Guard, as ordered. Mike had interviewed Turnipseed!!! I told Mike - on the air - that I was trying to get a slot in the Ala. Guard in 1972 (Trof's unit!) to fly RF-4s.

4. Bu$h is a liar on Ken Lay and Enron. I used to work for Lay in Houston, I told Mike.

I had about six more points. I'll call back in the next few nights and make them. For a nervous guy, I thought I was cool, calm, and almost Will-Pittish!
