Hour Two: Gatekeeper and Loon

The second hour of Saturday’s Northern Alliance Radio show is here. Or, as always, you can subscribe to our podcasts on iTunes by going here.

In our second hour on Saturday, we awarded Dan Rather a Lifetime Achievement Gatekeeper award in commemoration of his retirement from CBS. Continuing with the retirement theme, Connie Chung was our Loon of the Week for her farewell serenade, which, if you haven’t heard it, we played in its entirety.

A word of explanation: a number of readers have asked what happened to our second hour podcasts. Last week, I was busy enough at work that I never had time to edit our second hour. Generally, though, what’s going on is that we noticed that if we posted the two hours close to simultaneously, a lot of people didn’t get the first one. I think that must be due to an iTunes setting or something. So we decided to post one hour right away–usually the first hour, which is likely to be more time-sensitive–and wait a few days before putting up the second one. That way just about everyone gets them both. Beyond that, it mainly depends on when I have time to get them edited and uploaded.
