They've often been told by their constituents to "go jump in a lake," so we're not really sure where the controversy lies with tonight's Great Swim Across the Cumberland. I mean, if all council members were as diligent with these types of requests as Councilwoman Emily Evans (The Fightin' 23rd!), Councilman Jason Holleman (The Fightin' 24th!), and Councilman Mike Jameson (The Fightin' 6th!) then we'd have one happy, snappy city!
That said, tonight's 500 foot swim, which is scheduled for 5:00pm at Riverfront Park, has already served its purpose - prompting Nashvillians to start chattering about the state of the river and its environs.
On Monday morning, we held our breath and interviewed, in depth, Evans, Holleman, and Jameson. After we made some waves, we rapidly got to the bottom of some of the more contentious issues. We came very close to getting in over our heads, but in the end, it was smooth sailing.

It's Martin Luther King's day and time to celebrate the life of a man who fought for civil rights and, in his later years, railed against the Vietnam War. And it's so awesome that the Democrats have both a woman and an African-American in this year's presidential race but we can't wait for the time when even candidacies like these won't make news. That's our dream. (36.4MB 22:44)

It's a cold day in hell on Liberadio(!) when we read a certain right-wing talk radio hosts' Sunday column and our heads don't explode. Plus, the integrity of our elections are still suspect, Rep. Rob Briley's balancing act, Fred Thompson as Dick Gephardt, and isn't "lozenge" a fun word to say? (:24:58 40MB)

In this segment we learn that persistence is the key to accountability. Plus, we're joined by Rob Richie, Executive director of FairVote, an organization with the goal of transforming our elections to include a constitutionally protected right to vote, a national popular vote for president, instant runoff voting for executive elections and proportional voting for legislative elections. After the Iowa Caucus he wrote, "Iowa and the early primaries highlight the need — and real opportunity — for reform of our electoral system." Boy, he must really hate Mike Huckabee.
