Delano Hunter’s long-shot bid to unseat the Ward 5 DC city councilman electrified an entire community; Channel 38 was there to cover the movement months before the Washington Post finally took notice in its formal endorsement of Hunter’s candidacy.

In this episode, we also feature innovative tracks from Girl Talk and yet another crop of Wesleyan artists.  Greta and Brian stop by to promote their new program, and Randy, Josiah, and Jesse wax poetic.

The Channel Guide – Episode ONE

Not by deliberate design did the media we assemble for our first broadcast collude to produce a theme.
But it’s easy to detect.

In our interviews and excerpts, there emerges a call to take responsibility for history’s course.  To combat “the paralysis of inspiration, the romantic celebration of small-minded bureaucracy, the feverish tyranny of the status quo, the staggering poverty of ambition.”

CONTENTS:

“STAND UP!  Start challenging this corporate slave state. Resistance is not futile.”
“There’s got to be a genuine awakening . . . of individual responsibility, to use every means of communication.”
“The community must be given the chance to express itself.”
“But this morning, I felt as strong as a bolt of lightning…”

SET LIST:

• 1:25 – Intro & Welcome
• 2:43 - MC Sniper ft. Outsider – “Better Than Yesterday’
• 5:40 – Anderson Interview, Part 1
• 7:54 – Lalibela – “Look Lord”

ABSTRACT:
In this inaugural broadcast of The Channel Guide, we interview the Honorable John B. Anderson, 1980 third-party Presidential candidate and 10-term Congressman from Illinois.  He speaks of his deep regret for supporting the Gulf of Tonkin Resolution, the demise of his former Republican Party, his role in passing the Civil Rights Act, and the duties of our millennial generation.  Presented in three installments.
(Read Time Magazine’s 1980 article on Anderson’s historic race, and check out his campaign commercial.)

We also offer rhythms from around the 38th, kicking off with South Korean sensation MC Sniper, whose “Better Than Yesterday” features Korea’s poetic prodigies.  Hold your breath for Outsider… you’ll both need it.

There’s a track from up-and-coming hip hop sensation Snakes,* a slam from the lovely lady Lalibela, and a show-closing musical massage by DC’s very own Backyard Band.

We’re also proud to present the CollegeHumor Battle Rap starring In the Heights prodigy Lin-Manuel Miranda, along with relevant commentary from a few less-than-recognizable media speaks.

The rest unfolds serenely, interwoven throughout our studio banter:
Comedy.  News.  Politics.  Community Organizing.  Trust.

Word to the Lady Michelle.

A drug that failed to fight the blues could be the female answer to the little blue pill Viagra the lead North American investigator analysing tests of the drug said Tuesday.

Women who took the drug flibanserin when it was being tested as an anti-depressant said it didn’t help them beat the glums, but did give them “an increase in libido that they liked,” John Thorp, one of the investigators analyzing data from three clinical trials of the drug, told AFP.

Lack of desire is the most common sexual problem in women aged 30 to 60, just as erectile dysfunction, for which Viagra is one of a choice of treatments, is the most common sexual disorder among men in the same age bracket, Thorp said.

“Men remain interested but can’t act or perform properly and women lose interest,” said Thorp.

“So where Viagra and other erectile dysfunction medications work in the blood supply, flibanserin works in the brain,” he said.

In the light of the women’s reactions to flibanserin, the German drug company that had first tested the drug as a treatment for depression, Boehringer Ingelheim, several years ago began exploring the possibilities of it being the active ingredient in the female answer to Viagra.

Nearly 2,000 pre-menopausal women were given flibanserin or a placebo for 24 weeks and asked to report back to researchers or make diary entries on six variables, including the number of satisfactory sexual encounters they had and their level of sexual desire.

The studies found that 100 milligrams a day of flibanserin resulted in “significant improvements” in the two variables.

Flibanserin is currently an investigational drug and is only available to women taking part in clinical trials.
