Nestorious Public Radio

Guest co-host Sal Rodriguez joins Nestor Rodriguez and Rich Corbin to discuss the Wal-Mart doc, black friday mayhem and the high cost of mass consumerism in America. Did you know that local governments subsidize the building of Wal-Mart’s across America while they run small independent retailers out of business? Did you also know that while these huge superstores employ millions of workers that the average annual hourly waged employee makes less than $15k? So guess what that means? Yup! All of these employees qualify for welfare! Yipee! To summarize our tax dollars go to offset the cost of Wal-Mart’s being built AND to offset low wage Wal-Mart employee’s healthcare costs! Win win for Wal-Mart -suck, slurp, vamoosh for our tax dollars! Hip hip hooray! Can we get an Amen? Listen in to sound bytes of black friday mobs and lest we forget RIP Nelson Mandela! Oh and get schooled on Kraftwerk, Big Pun and Afrika Bambaataa.

Nestor Rodriguez, Simon Kaufman and Richard Corbin are joined once again by film and tv Director Rosemary Rodriguez (Acts of Worship, The Goodwife and much more) as she discusses the making of her new film project Silver Skies. The film is about an over 55 Apartment complex that’s being sold to be converted into condo’s. It’s an ensemble piece starring George Hamilton (Love at first Bite, Zorro The Gay Blade, The Godfather Pt3), Valerie Perrine (Academy Award nominated Actress for her role in “Lenny”), Barbara Bain (Co-Star of the 60’s-70’s TV show “Mission Impossible”) and Alex Rocco (“The Godfather” and many more classic joints) The film deals with the interaction of the tenants of Silver Skies and the theme of being disposable or unimportant after you reach a certain age. We also discuss what it’s like being female director and the influence women had in early Hollywood film making. We discuss Alice Guy Blache (The first female director in the motion-picture industry) and Lois Weber (an American silent film actress, screenwriter, producer, and director, who is considered the most important female director the American film industry has ever known.

She says her lack of privacy is impossible to accept. Should we feel sorry for her or tell her to give it all back? Also Ariel castro commits suicide just over a month after he was sentenced to life in prison plus 1,000 years for the kidnapping and rape of three Cleveland women. Had he been on constant supervision we could have been paying for this douche bag to live 1000 + years on our dime! Should we feel sorry for him or the justice system or just "Big Up" him for ending his despicable life? And lastly a Waco TX printing company creates a decal featuring a hogtied woman curled up in the bed of a pickup truck to advertise the quality of their printing! UNBELIEVABLE! The owner of Hornet Signs Brad Kolb told KTWX, “I wasn’t expecting the reactions we got, nor do we condone this by any means." REALLY????
