50 Million Views On YouTube, Andrew Zimmerman Of TCC's "Bizzare Foods" & Denying Women Contraception
Edited on Thu Nov-20-08 08:08 PM by ihavenobias
1)-8:00pm ET: Andrew Zimmern from the Travel Channel's "Bizarre Foods" talks to the Turks about his career. Check it out at www.theyoungturks.com

2)-Bush is not acting like a lame duck, as evidenced by his latest effort to do something terrible. This time it's .

3)-. "...With a staff of just five people, the progressive Young Turks Show has received almost twice as many views this election cycle as former presidential nominee John McCain's YouTube channel (25.7 million)...".

PS---Here's what's coming up on the 11/21 episode of the great new progressive talk show from Robert Greenwald, :

November 21st on Meet the Bloggers
Obesity is on the rise and Type 2 diabetes cases . For the first time in decades, the life expectancy of children born in this century is actually lower than their parents. What's the number one culprit in this crisis? Food. Meanwhile, food safety is spotty. The U.S. lacks a comprehensive "farm to table" food inspection process. That's why the Centers for Disease Control estimates there are 76 million cases of food borne illness each year!

What we eat is making us sick! To find out why -- and what we can do about it -- join food scientist Marion Nestle this Friday on Meet the Bloggers. Nestle is the author of and a professor in the Nutrition, Food Studies, and Public Health Department at New York University. We'll also chat with filmmaker Catherine Gund, director of the upcoming documentary , along with the two young subjects of her film, 7th graders Sadie Hope-Gund and Safiyahi Riddle. Then blogger Kerry Trueman (Huffington Post, ) shares some not-particularly-appetizing information about the traditional holiday turkey, and we'll visit our local farmers' market to learn why we should eat locally and seasonally.

The next episode of Meet the Bloggers will be available beginning Friday, November 21. Check out some of the articles below and fight the food policies that have failed us with your knife and fork!


And of course you can watch (which include Rachel Maddow, Michael Moore, John Cusack and more) of Meet The Bloggers Free On Demand anytime.

4. He eats a lot of gross stuff but I don't know, I actually enjoy his show.
And hey, since he generally doesn't mind eating the things we'd never touch, it's a great job for him.
