Today's show had a little something for everyone. First up, we had our first candidate for Governor of Georgia come through The Anthony Esposito Show. The candidate in the hot seat was John Monds, Libertarian Party candidate for governor. His motto is "Smaller Government, Lower Taxes, More Opportunities" and he wants to be your new governor after Sonny Perdue's term ends in a year plus. You can check John out on his campaign website at VoteMonds.com.
Next up, in an almost NPR-like segment (oh, and I DO mean that as a compliment, by the by), I had Professor Matthew Bosisio of Augusta State University talk about his recent 10 day trip to Cuba. Matt had recently written a killer op-ed for the Augusta Chronicle about this trip that appeared here. In typical Augusta fashion, the comments written by "readers" of his op-ed weren't exactly supportive of his trip and findings. Nonetheless, Matt's thoughts about his trip are worth your time and you can even hear his interview with me at

And, as we always do on Fridays at 2pm, we had a local musical guest in the studio. This week it was the "Joe Stevenson-approved" John Krueger! John's a 21 year old musical prodigy and believes in giving away him music online. So, if you go to www.johnkrugermusic.com or www.myspace.com/johnkruger you can download both of his albums totally for free and totally legally!! What a deal!
I hope everyone enjoys their Labor Day weekend and I'll be back on Monday playing some local music and then will interview Fred Gehle of the Veteran History Project. See y'all then!!
There is now legislation which would loosen travel restrictions to Cuba. Check out CubaGO for more information. I live in Paul Broun's district, the Georgia 10th, and he is--surprise--opposed to this legislation.
