  • MAGA GOP, a Race to the Bottom (American Issues Take One)

    How a Sector of the GOP Defines Deplorable.  The host for this show is Tim Apicella.  The guest is Cynthia Lee Sinclair.  


    What could destroy a political career not so long ago? Monkey Business. That was the name of the boat Gennifer Flowers was photographed sitting on the lap of Democratic Candidate Gary Hart. It was enough for followers to turn away as they had expected standards of how a candidate should behave. Fast forward to the beginning of Trump's bid for president: a Hollywood Access video describing his love of sexually groping women, calling war heroes and gold star families as non-heroes, setting a policy to rip children away from the arms of parents at the boarder, calling WWI veterans 'suckers and losers', overtly lying about the deadly nature of COVID19 (but admitting to journalist  Bob Woodward the truth), denying his election loss, and willing to bully officials to find 11,780 votes and incite thousands to attack the Capital. So, why hasn't the MAGA GOP turned away from Trump? What is it about FL Gov. DeSantis's stunt to dump legal asylum seekers to Martha's Vineyard that MAGA GOP admire?

  • Similar Skyscraping Seashore Skylines Vol 9 (Humane Architecture)

    Chicago and Honolulu, the Uneven Pair.  The hosts for this show are Martin Despang and DeSoto Brown.  


    Previous 'human[e] architecture' investigations have identified that Honolulu’s skyscraping skyline borrows much from Chicago, from architectural articulation to authorship. Both cities fronting water, this series of episodes investigates the most recent development in Chicago and their relation to and relevance for Honolulu. DOM Publisher’s 'Chicago Architectural Guide' gives orientation and inspiration for Martin Despang’s scavenger hunt in Chicago in May 2022. It refreshes previous impressions and eye witnessing memories of DeSoto Brown and Martin Despang from combined from the 60’s, 80’s, 90’s and 2000’s. The show is making the viewers recollect, update or initiate their substantiated image of Honolulu’s fellow Windy City as to what to learn from and what not to.
