SUNDAY, JANUARY 1
LEARN HOW TO RIGHT A WRONG
"Consumer justice" is a "consummation devoutly to be wished" but not always attained. Jon Yates, official problem solver columnist for the Chicago Tribune has just done a book on how to get your money back when you have been misused and ill-served by corporations, contractors, credit agencies, doctor's offices or con men disguised as contractors. He joins us in a two-hour "What's Your Problem?" seminar.
MONDAY, JANUARY 2
SCOPING THE 2012 ELECTION LANDSCAPE
Beyond the Iowa caucuses lies the total presidential race which won't come to conclusion till early November. Milt speaks with one of the wisest analysts he knows, Victor Davis Hanson of the Hoover Institution, about the deeper issues in the race which are, ultimately the persisting issues concerning the fate and future of the nation.
TUESDAY, JANUARY 3
IOWA CAUCUS RESULTS SHOW
The results from Iowa and their significance (if any!) will get full report and discussion as we talk with Richard Ciccone, former managing editor of the Chicago Tribune and political scientist, Richard Simpson. Also scheduled are contributions from the field including another political scientist who has done the definitive book (someone had to do it) on Iowa politics!
WEDNESDAY, JANUARY 4
MEMORY, REAL AND FABRICATED
The memory wars of the 1990s were waged over false memories of sexual abuse that had been implanted by ignorant and/or idiot "psychotherapists" who thought they were in the tradition of Sigmund Freud. We talk about that and a good deal else with Alison Winter, author of "Memory: Fragments of a Modern History."
THURSDAY, JANUARY 5
HOLLYWOOD'S POLITICAL INFLUENCE
Chaplin, Reagan, Fonda (Jane), Beatty, Heston and many other Hollywood figures were active in American politics. Their careers, influence and political intelligence (or lack there of) are examined in "Hollywood Left and Right: How Movie Stars Shaped American Politics," written by our guest, Steven Ross.
SUNDAY, JANUARY 8
THE MEANING OF THE BIBLE
A great biblical scholar, Douglas Knight, joins us for an excursion through the Tanach. What's that? The Hebrew Bible otherwise known as the Old Testament. We will examine that founding work of western civilization as history, as theology and as literary masterpiece.
