Today we talk about some crazy news stories (mothers tatooing their foreheads for education?), Art, the Artist, and how they’re perceived and mis-perceived. We have fun with our studio audience, and we give you a sneak preview of an about-to-be new Spoken Word CD release called “Weapons of Mass Instruction: the Evolution will be televised. Lucky 7 and Jason Bayani, poets from the Bay Area are featured, and we also give you a tasty little number from Amiri Baraka called “In Walked Bud”. We hear a report from our reporter at large Ekayani at the Fete De La Musique concert in Miami, and have a conversation about the Live 8 concerts, independence, and independence day. Congrats to Adam Curry on passing his Flight exams, and becoming a fully licensed pilot. We also take a moment to talk about the new Itunes 4.9, and it’s podcasting abilities. Here are a couple of links for you today:
