On the 23ed of June, it was announced that NSA Whistleblower Edward Snowden has escaped Hong Kong and US attempts to extradite him from there. Edward Snowden is the man who brought you the truth about the NSA reading your emails in their PRISM program, listening in on some of your phone calls, and collecting metadata about EVERY phone call you make and everything you do with Google, Facebook, Yahoo, Microsoft, and other US corporate Internet servers. On the 23ed of June, Mr Snowden left Hong Kong for Moscow, to head from there to maybe Iceland, maybe Ecuador according to the South China Morning Post, maybe Cuba or Venezuala according to Russian Interfax news. Needless to say, his enemies in the United States can forget about ever touching him in any of those countries. Obama and his cronies are so upset about this they are whining to Putin that this will damage relations between the US and Russia. So be it-do Russian citizens want the NSA listening in on their phone calls too? Snowden escaped to freedom just the Department of Injustice revealed a 3-count indictment with each count carrying a ten year prison term, just for telling the truth about how the National Security Agency is violating your rights. I wonder if Obama will now try to prosecute the New York Times for releasing a copy of these outrageous, previously sealed charges. Well Mr Snowden, you were smart for not trusting AmeriKKKan courts, and doubly smart for leaving that nest of angry hornets holding the bag after you told the truth about their snooping! This is WSQT Direct Action Radio, telling the Department of Injustice to take their crooked indictment of a good public servant and stick it where the sun doesn't shine!

No shit, Sherlock--and Armageddon fucking tired of waiting for it to happen! Yes! It's that time of year again, seekers--when we indulge ourselves of the masturbatory delights of envisioning total global annihilation! After surging through the gate so many times in the past, I felt burned out to the point that until yesterday, I was afraid this show was going to collapse like a shit soufflé...but suddenly it began to jell to a frightening consistency into a complete hellshow of appropriately apocalyptic proportions! The centerpiece is a piece of classic cold-war nuke-scare film called THIS IS NOT A TEST, a movie that takes place entirely on the side of a lonely California road in the dark. A fascist cop hears radio reports of the oncoming Rooskie missile strike and begins to stop traffic on this lonely stretch of highway, commandeering a semi and forcing the fearstruck citizens to hide out in it to protect them from the radiation. WHAT THE HELL...?! Add insane bits of Gary Busey from some cheesy xtian martyr-porn film TRIBULATION and throw in music by Happy Flowers, the Hair & Skin Trading Company, Chocolate USA, Sabaton, an *a capella* David Bowie doing the naked vocal track for "Under Pressure," Cristina complaining á la Peggy Lee, and Nick Cave & the Bad Seeds as they buttonhole Stang to "Call upon the Author to Explain," and we have nearly a solid hour of apeshit mindfuck material for our high holy holiday celebration! So, enjoy--and if you want to touch yourself while you listen...hell, I can't blame you. This subject hits us right in the lower chakras like a furred, lubed belt sander.
