Everything promised was delivered. 
That's a promise made most of a lifetime ago by Bob Dylan, but it came true on EnlightenRadio.org Nov 29 when the Dinner Out Crew gathered for the Progress Diner Radio Show. The headlined menu of Drunks Delight, South of the Border Style, helped us recover from the tear gassing.
 
The show airs regularly Thursdays 6:30 PM on Enlighten Radio. There is a player at the top of the page. Also this Stream Link works.

THE LARRY BISH SEGMENT

First show from the Diner:
 
Drunks Delight:  Its a very snowy and icy night, but JB and Mike make it by phone. I gotta consume my Delight of American Chop Suey all by myself. Nonetheless: a Menu of Talk follows
 
1. Mike and John spend 15 minutes working out the menu before landing on a Sex Recession Cocktail Its true, there's serious research out suggesting a decline in fertility by generation in the US. Mike and John give evidence, as it were.
 
2. Mike and John discuss whether we should memorize President Macron of France's 'nationalism is a betrayal of patriotism' speech to Trump, and the world.
 
3. An important commentary from Dani Rodriks Global Policy Journal asks if classical liberalism is at odds with justice in confronting aggravated inequality in modern US society. We ask ourselves that question.
 
4. JB calls from the annual Alliance For Retired Americans (ARA) in Ripley, WV with reports on top issues of concern to WV retirees.
