Good morning, Ungovernables! Hitting the salt mines early in the morning tomorrow, so I need to get this house in order now. Here’s your special programming for Friday, July 26th.

10:00 a.m.   In the Spotlight: The Music of The J. Geils Band

That “other” Boston band, frenetic and funky is how they are described. I much prefer them to Band No. 1. But that’s me.

1:00 p.m.    Abby Martin on How Propaganda Engineers Consent for Empire

Abby Martin of the Empire Files talks to Mark Crispin Miller about the powerful role propaganda plays in our daily lives.

4:00 p.m.    The ‘All-Girl’ Revue

A couple of hours of nothing but the ladies of rock n’ roll.

7:00 p.m.     Alison Weir on the Global Effort to Criminalize Criticism of Israel 

It’s here and it’s real. We’d better find a way to combat this.
