Wednesdays 5:00 - 6:00 PM One If By Land Hosted by Janet Phelan: In a world besotted with wars, rumors of wars, and a government veiled in secrecy, the mission of "One If By Land" is to lift the veil and shine the light of transparency. The show features an eclectic format, with reportage by the host, interviews, as well as a venue for songwriters and poets, in keeping with the public affairs focus.
Mary Garofalo will guest on "One If By Land" next Wednesday. Garofalo, who was a twenty year veteran reporter at Fox, was terminated from Fox 5 in New York the day after the second in her controversial series on the guardianship issue aired last week. "One if By Land" will air at 5 p.m., Pacific Time, on 94.9 on the FM dial in Ashland, Oregon. It will stream off the web at that time, from KSKQ.org. Also on the show that hour will be Margie Mikals, a family law attorney in the San Bernardino area, who is "under the gun" after coming up against "Big Conservatorship. " "One If By Land," is also seeking submissions for a soon-to-be-aired bonanza show, featuring musicians and poets/spoken word artists. The topic is politics. Please email your written or mp3 pre-recorded files to janetclairephelan@yahoo.com. You will be notified if your submission is aired. KSKQ also streams off the web, and all shows are currently archived at KSKQ.org/showcase/
