"480 Minutes" - March 1st, You Say?


Individual 1 traveled 7000 miles for another summit with North Korea and apparently accomplished even less than he did the first time -- although it seems that this time he's not outright lying about what happened, which in the hopelessly degraded state office of the president today, kinda counts as a small victory.

Meanwhile back home Individual 1 had much dirty laundry aired on national television thanks to a congressional hearing during which the Republicans ostensibly there to defend him instead just attacked witness Michael Cohen as a liar and a cheat...the exact traits for which Individual 1 hired Cohen and kept him close for 10 years.

The spectacle of a sitting president being called a racist and a conman (with no one coming to his defense!) during a televised congressional hearing provided considerable cover for other administration goings on, including dispatching an experienced and trusted diplomat to the middle east to meet with Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman. Just kidding. They sent Jared! Somehow the unrepentant journalist murderer and the debt-compromised very mediocre first son-in-law who everyone knows shouldn't have any security clearance but does are going to broker peace between the Palestinian Authority and the finally-indicted-for-corruption Kushner family friend Israeli Prime Minister, Benjamin Netanyahu (R-Israel).

Also, the first daughter/lady who was born with everything reported that, from her vast experience with people who shop at Walmart, she is confident that most Americans would be against guaranteed jobs.

What a week!

Today's 480 Minutes show will feature new releases by Better Oblivion Community Center (Omaha, NE, @better_oblivion),  FEELS (Los Angeles, CA, @feelstheband), Frankie And The Witch Fingers (Los Angeles, CA, @frankieandthew1), Julia Jacklin (Blue Mountains, Australia, @juliajacklin), Nov3l (Vancouver, Canada), Small Feet (Stockholm, Sweden, @SmallFeetBand), and Venus Furs (Montreal, Canada, @venusfursmusic).

480 Minutes is live-hosted from 9 a.m. until 5 p.m. Eastern U.S. Time and is followed by 2 hours of uninterrupted music.  The show is then rebroadcast in it's entirety beginning at 7 p.m., then again on Saturday at 5 a.m. and 3 p.m., and one final time on Sunday at 1 a.m., followed by a rebroadcast of this week's Fuzzy Road radio show at 11 a.m. and then a couple of old 480 Minutes episodes from this week in past years, so there will be hosted shows all weekend long.
