The Northern Alliance Radio Network will be on the air today, with our eight-hour-long broadcast schedule starting at 9 am CT. If you’re in the Twin Cities, you can hear us on AM 1280 The Patriot, or on the station’s Internet stream if you’re outside of the broadcast area.

• The King Banaian Show: King Banaian, 9-11 on KYCR 1570.
• The First Team: Power Line’s John Hinderaker and Chad and Brian from Fraters Libertas, 11-1
• The Headliners: Mitch Berg and Ed Morrissey, 1-3 with live streaming video and chat
• Sons of Liberty, 3-5.

Today, Mitch and I talk about the EunuchBomber, the intelligence and security problems the botched attack exposed, and the Obama administration’s response. We’ll also unpack the new job numbers from yesterday, and explain how the official jobless rate hides a much bigger problem in the employment picture. And we’ll also discuss how state tax revenues give a clear picture of a nation deep in recession, not one in recovery, and much much more!

Be sure to call 651-289-4488 to join the conversation!
