It's "Hip Hump Day Wednesday" on The After Show, where we put the hip back in your hump.
Lara Logan gets a slap on the wrist for passing propaganda as news, but there must still be a way to blame Dan Rather; a twelve year old black girl bullied at a christian school in Floriduh is ordered to cut or straighten her hair so the bullying will stop; Ford recalls over 150,000 Escape vehicles because of engine fires, but somehow Tesla is more dangerous.
All that and more on The After Show!
Player and other info below the Orange Flourish.
The After Show with Wink and Justice broadcasts 9am to 10am Pacific on Metaphor Mondays, Hip Hump Day Wednesdays, Thank God It's Giovedì (that's what we call it) and Angle of Repose Fridays

Question: Who is your audience? What are you here for?
Answer: Tribal Alliances, Heart-felt Convictions, Passionate Reason, Random Abandon, Sustainable Civility and a kiss; to comfort the sad and the mad Ones; the Ones roaming the International section of the American Supermarket at night; or roaming the neglected streets looking for an angry malaprop to sink their teeth into; the Ones who seek without seeking and learn as much as they teach; the Ones who embrace and kiss and embrace again; the Ones who sing the song of the city and the ballads of the forest; the Ones who chant the rhythm of the sea and hum the melody of the desert; the Ones who sing the prayer of Her name and Her name is the World. Yes, those are the Ones. -- JP

Could you please help?)

Jesus Was A Commie
words and music by
Justice Putnam
Jesus was a Commie
Jesus was a Jew
Jesus was a fisher
Jesus worked with tools
Jesus walked across the land
Jesus sat at home
Jesus led a fiery band
Jesus slept alone
(m/8) Jesus said to love the ones
Who slapped you across the face
Jesus called Lazarus from the tomb
Jesus touched him with Burning Grace
Jesus was loved
Jesus was despised
Jesus taught simple truths
Jesus was crucified
(instrumental m/8)
(tacet) Now some say Jesus rose to heaven
Now some say Jesus only died
Now all the High Priests teach the lesson
Now even Love should be criticized
(instrumental m/8 to tacet)
