News Talk Radio

Well, I am back in the swing of things. I had been avoiding talk radio for a while. I am not really sure why, I think it just has something to do with trying to keep my life simple and my mind clear. However, I am back. 710 KNUS has been made a standard for Emily and I on our way to and from work. That generally means Laura Ingraham and Hugh Hewitt, with the occasional Dennis Prager at lunch. I haven't listened to Rush for a while, when I do I am usually on a road trip deep in the heart of 'Red America.'

People ask me why I am not more politically outspoken. I have opinions and a lot of them, but I don't talk about them very often - I am not very 'active' politically. Two thoughts about that: one, I do not see political or social activism as the route through which I am going to live out my Christian calling/existence. (No offense, Bono.) Second, I think this is changing in my life. I am feeling more of a passion to be involved in what is going on around me. Not just in my common, natural circles of life, but in new spheres and new places with new people. We will see, but bottom line, I am listening to talk radio once again.
