How to Hear Chuck's Show as a POD CAST! There is another new way to hear Chuck Harder .... THE MAN WHO SEES THE FUTURE! With the advent of the Ipod
and other mp3 player devices, more and more people are downloading whole
radio shows to take with them on their commute or a long drive. Enter Good Politics Radio.
Originally a political internet radio show, now a venue for
political podcasts. “Now
our listeners can subscribe to their favorite radio show,” says founder,
Bonnie Dillabough. “They
get a notification whenever a new show is available and using a download
client like “Ipodder” or “Itunes” or “Odeo”, anyone can
automatically download their favorite political program, such an episode
of the “Chuck Harder Show” and have it transferred to their mp3 device
with the click of a button. Kind
of like Tivo for radio. We’re betting that podcasting is here to
stay.” So what is Good Politics
Radio? Good Politics Radio was
founded due to the frustrations of voters.
It is difficult enough to make sound decisions at the voters booth,
but the average citizen gets their election
information from 30 second sound bytes, which too often is negative
or downright vitriolic. People
are tired of the mudslinging, tired of information that is filtered
through the slanted views of the media. Good Politics Radio created
a place where anyone regardless of political affiliation, viewpoint or
economic level can say what they want to say about issues that are
important to them. Designed,
not only to showcase politicians running for office, but to allow anyone
who has anything to say of a political nature a global voice. Good Politics Radio does not
edit or censor the content it airs. There
are some simple guidelines: First, no mudslinging.
Not to say a person can’t say anything negative about the
“other side”, but each must stick to the issues and leave
personalities and name-calling out of it. Second, nothing illegal, for
obvious reasons. Third, keeping the language family friendly. You can say what you need to say quite succinctly and get your point across without the need for “colorful metaphors”. We point classes of school children to this site. That’s it. Otherwise, everything goes. You can say what needs saying here. Voters are smarter than the average politician gives them credit for. If they are given good information, they can make informed choices in the voting booth. “My theory is that more people would vote, if they understood the issues. Now they can get their political information painlessly. Even someone who doesn’t have an mp3 player can download a show, play it on their computer, or even burn a cd to put into their cd player in the car or their walkman for their morning walk,” Bonnie says. “Now that’s Good Politics!” And, this is why TalkStar Radio is pleased to have the CHUCK HARDER SHOW as a POD CAST option on Good Politics Radio.
