That ol' debbil, laryngitis has still got a hold of me. So for the next few weeks, I'm going to present archive editions of Bartlemania! Hopefully, my radio voice will be back in full effect soon.
Meanwhile, Happy New Year to all my listeners, and to the stations which carry Bartlemania!

There have been "buy nothing days" in previous years, like the ones protesting the over-commercialization of Christmas, or to bring attention to the situation of AIDS patients.
The stakes are much higher in today's "buy nothing day".

Congress is recklessly rushing to cut $2.3 trillion from Medicaid. This will have serious consequences. Children and seniors will lose the care they need – and costs will go up for all of us. Call your member of congress at 866-426-2631 and tell them to STOP massive cuts to our health care.
