Serious Questions – sound off in comments

by | Dec 23, 2007 | JMBell | 4 comments

  1.  Where does the “President’s Weekly Radio Address” play in Utah? What stations?
  2.  Why do I only hear about it in 7 second soundbites on the TV News?
  3.   When is it on?
  4.  Does anyone around here listen to it?

I read the transcripts, from time to time, when I remember that it exists, but, really, anyone do this?

    Radio, with the possible exception of some NPR programming, is worthless if you’re looking for actual news. I seem to recall hearing the Weekly Radio Address on a local station years ago. It may have been KALL or KSL, but now, your best option is to subscribe to the podcast. Radio made itself obsolete.

    I know the public station out of USU used to air it Sunday mornings, but according to their website they no longer do.

    I used to download the podcasts until I realized the President wasn’t saying anything that I hadn’t already heard David Broder or George Will say for him in a more entertaining (yet still strangely creepy) way, so I unsubscribed.

    The President does a weekly show?

    I podcasted it for a while, but I quit listening, mostly because my fragile mental state couldn’t take that much GW all at once.
