Greetings!
 
I am returning to my original time slot noon-3pm - where I used to be for seven years. There will be exciting changes announced next week for the 3pm to 6pm ET slot for commercial radio - so stay tuned. Our non-commercial stations will remain the same.
 
Next week - Tag! I'm it - so I will be filling in for both time slots - putting me on air from noon to 6pm ET. We are looking forward to it - We're a hard working crew and everyone here, Shane, Danielle, Jim, Shawn and Louise, will be here helping each other with breaks and food runs. Don't worry - FSTV viewers- we're here for you and you'll still see me on TV. So call in and be part of the shows & thanks for listening and watching.

Thom talks the latest news surrounding net neutrality with Laura Friedenbach of the Progressive Change Campaign Committee and small business owner Joe Niederberger. Tonight's "Lone Liberal Rumble" discusses how just kids in rural areas (not urban) will receive free school lunches this summer, how losing unemployment benefits doesn't make people get jobs and how business is booming in Washington State despite having the nation's highest minimum wage. In tonight's "Daily Take" Thom discusses the truth of the GOP death panel.
