Our guests this week include:

* MP George Galloway, author of the new book, "Mr. Galloway Goes To Washington: The Brit Who Set Congress Straight About Iraq" (New Press).Mr. Galloway is the Respect Party's Member of Parliament for Bethnal Green and Bow in London, a seat he won after being expelled from the Labour Party following thirty-six year of membership. The Party expelled George for opposing the war in Iraq. You may remember George from his amazing testimony before the US Senate Committee on Homeland Security and Governmental Affairs relating to his alleged and unsubstantiated involvement in the oil-for-food "scandal."

* Norman Finkelstein, author of "Beyond Chutzpah: On the Misuse of Anti-Semitism and the Abuse of History" (University of California Press), is assistant professor of political science at Chicago's DePaul University.

* Barbara Ehrenreich, author of "Bait and Switch: The (futile) Pursuit of the American Dream" (Metropolitan Books) as well as a contributor to Harper's and The Nation. Barbara has also been a columnist for both The New York Times and Time magazine.

* Jamie Court, president of the Foundation for Taxpayer and Consumer Rights, will be on to discuss the work of his group including their recent report on oil company profiteering. We also hope to touch on FTCR's work regarding healthcare, insurance companies and Hurricane Katrina.

3. It's an error on their website -- George Galloway is on now

[Gabi Hayes]

4. I can't get a stream on windows or real player.....anybody else?

getting very weak signal over the actual radio

he's explaining his 'supportive' quote about Saddam, after being quite critical previously

says he was trying to convince him to let inspectors in to avert a war, back in 94

host says he's gotten a huge amount of negative email in advance of Galloway's appearance

5. keep trying ... WNUR has a limited number of streams available

6. This is an *Excellent* program.

Chuck Mertz puts together an awesome lineup every single week. Four hours of very intelligent talk. I have come to depend on the PodCast every weekend.

If you've not listened to "This is Hell!" before, you should browse through the archives and grab one that looks interesting to you. You'll be hooked. This is top knotch stuff.
