I’m pleased to announce that I’m scheduled to return tonight to New York City radio and Frank Morano’s popular “The Other Side of Midnight” program on WABC-AM. The segment, which is slated to air during the show’s 1 AM EST hour, will focus on many of the domestic and foreign headline issues of the day, including the U.S. midterm elections, inflation, and the Ukraine war.

You can listen live at this link, and as always, if you can’t or won’t stay up that late, I’ll post a link to the podcast as soon as one’s available.

And of course keep on checking in with RealityChek for news of upcoming media appearances and other developments.

Following Up: Podcasts of National and New York City Radio Interviews Now On-Line

I’m pleased to announce that the podcasts are now on-line of my two radio interviews yesterday (and one technically this morning) on a wide range of foreign policy, economic, and U.S. political topics.

Click here to listen to my appearance on Moe Ansari’s nationally syndicated “Market Wrap” show, where we did a deep dive into the questions of whether or not President Biden’s thinking seriously of cutting some of the Trump tariffs on imports from China, and the likelihood and wisdom of America pulling off any kind of significant divorce from the Chinese economy. The segment starts at about the 21:40 mark.

At this link, you can access my conversation with host Frank Morano on his late-night WABC-AM (New York City) show “The Other Side of Midnight.” It covered the impact of tariffs on consumer prices, the outlook for America’s inflation-ridden economy, the chances that the Ukraine war goes nuclear, and the odds of (figurative) earthquakes down the road for American presidential politics – for starters!

In addition, click here for the second half of my interview on the U.S. government-run Voice of America – which zeroes in on Ukraine war-related global economic disruptions. (Yes, the segment was pre-my latest haircut!)

When it rains, it (sort of) pours. I’m pleased to announce broadcast interview number two today – a scheduled return to Frank Morano’s “The Other Side of Night” radio show on New York City’s WABC-AM. The segment is scheduled to start at 1:30 AM EST (that is, technically Tuesday morning), and we’ll be zeroing in on the amazing (at least to me) hints coming from the Biden administration that tariffs on lots of imports from China will soon be cut. But no doubt we’ll be talking some New York City sports, too.

You can listen live at this link.  But for all of you early birds and others, as usual, I’ll post a link to the podcast as soon as one’s available.

I’m pleased to announce that the podcast is now on-line of my interview late last night on Frank Morano’s “The Other Side of Night” radio show on New York City’s WABC-AM. Click here for a lively conversation on the Ukraine war, inflation, global economic decoupling, tariffs…and Buck Showalter???

In addition, a video is finally available of a Voice of America (VOA) interview I did last Monday, April 11, on the state of U.S.-China economic relations. Happily, the Chinese language service of this U.S. government foreign broadcasting agency is now offering telecasts that feature the English-language audio of non-Chinese speakers (like me) with the Chinese content in subtitles. So it’s much easier for non-Chinese speakers to understand that non-Chinese content than under the previous system, which featured simultaneous Chinese translation over the interviewees’ barely audible voice.

I’m pleased to announce that I’m scheduled to return tonight to Frank Morano’s “The Other Side of Night” radio show on New York City’s WABC-AM. The segment is scheduled to start at 1:30 AM EST (so yes, it’s technically Tuesday morning), and the agenda will be wide-ranging: Ukraine, inflation, North Korea (which has been posing new national security threats lately) – and maybe a little on the (not so hot) New York City pro sports scene thrown in!

You can listen live at this link.  But if your bedtime comes too early, as usual, I’ll post a link to the podcast as soon as one’s available.

Making News: Podcast On-Line of NYC Impeachment & Economy Interview, New Appearance Coming Today … & a Correction

I’m pleased to announce that the podcast is now on-line of an interview last night in the wee hours on New York City’s WABC-AM’s “Other Side of Midnight” program. Click here for a timely conversation with host Frank Morano on the possibility of a Trump impeachment, the political impact of the Capitol riot, and what the latest official U.S. trade report told us about the health of the economy and the effects of Mr. Trump’s tariff-centric policies. (You’ll see my segment right at the top.) 

In addition, I’ll be discussing the same subjects later today on Moe Ansari’s nationally syndicated “Market Wrap” radio show. Click here and then on the “listen live” link on the right starting at a few minutes before 8 PM EST. My segment will probably begin about halfway into the hour-long program. And if you can’t tune in, as usual I’ll be posting a link to the podcast as soon as one’s available.

As for the correction, in yesterday’s post laying out the case against impeaching the President, I stated that the Mueller report into the Trump-Russia collusion charges presented on p. 89 of its second volume the argument that mitigating against accusing Mr. Trump of obstruction of justice was abundant evidence that the President lacked criminal or corrupt intent.

This argument was indeed made, but not on that page. Instead, you’ll find on pp. 7, 47, 51, 56, 57, 62, 76, 97 and 157, descriptions of episodes indicating that the President acted out of a genuine belief that he was being framed and due to other legitimate considerations.  And on p. 7, you’ll find the explanation that the obstruction statues require “consideration of [such] motives for his conduct.”  You can also read these passages in this post.

I apologize for the error and for any confusion caused. Thanks to the careful, sharp-eyed reader who caught the mistake!

I’m pleased to announce that the podcast is now on-line of my appearance in last night’s wee hours on Frank Morano’s “The Other Side of Midnight” talk show on New York City’s WABC-AM radio. Click here to listen to a timely discussion of two recent RealityChek items: the national media’s near news blackout (and possibly coverup?) of the Eric Swalwell China spy scandal story, and the increasingly US-like anti-CCP Virus performance of Germany — whose lockdowns-heavy strategy and early successes won such fulsome worldwide praise.

Special bonus for Baby Boomer native-New Yorkers-in-exile (like me!) — right at the beginning of the recording, you’ll hear the same “77 WABC” jingle you may remember from your childhood and adolescence.

Making News: Analyzing the Post-Election Scene in The National Interest & on NYC Talk Radio

Blue Wave, election 2020, Frank Morano, Joe Biden, Making News, The National Interest, The Other Side of Midnight, Trump, WABC AM

I’m pleased to announce two new media hits during the last week. First, yesterday, The National Interest published an essay of mine setting out some initial thoughts on where American politics stands in the immediate aftermath of Joe Biden’s apparent election as President and the failure of a widely predicted Blue Wave to crush Trump-ism or swamp the House and Senate. Here’s the link. It’s a modified version of my Wednesday RealityChek post, but I think regulars will find it a valuable read along, with others.

Second, in the wee hours of Wednesday morning, Frank Morano interviewed me on the new political landscape on his WABC-AM New York City radio show “The Other Side of Midnight.” The podcast wasn’t posted till yesterday, but you can listen to the segment at this site. Click on the topmost “The Election is still not over….” episode. My segment begins at about the 23:40 mark.

I’m pleased to announce that I’m scheduled to appear tonight (technically, Thursday morning) on Frank Morano’s “The Other Side of Midnight” program on New York City’s WABC-AM radio. The segment, slated to start at 1:30 AM, will deal a wide range of subjects – the upcoming Presidential Debate pitting Donald Trump versus Joe Biden, America’s loss of global tech manufacturing leadership, and charges that Trump is a phony working class champion. (Yes, the latter two have been subjects of recent freelance articles.)

You can listen live by clicking this link, and then pressing one of the Play buttons on top. If you can’t – or won’t – stay up that late, I’ll post a link to the podcast as soon as one’s available.
