The #1 Internet Radio Station for Freethinkers, Skeptics, Humanists, Liberals, Brights, Universists, Religion Critics and Historians, Atheists, Conservative Atheists, Agnostics, and Naturalists.
Freethought Radio is your radio station. It’s your platform for your message and that is what it always will be. I am proud of and greatly admire all the personalities that broadcast or have broadcasted through Freethought Radio; people such as David Eller, Jeff Dee and Company, Damian Bishop, James Nash, Alleee and Francoise, Atheistar, Lauren and Jan Floyd, Reverend Jeremiah, Apostate Annie, JMP Murphy, Marie Castle and the Atheist Alliance, Reggie Finley the Infidel Guy, Clay Jenkinson aka Thomas Jefferson , James Randi, Karen Armstrong, Peter Stanford, Larry Darby and many, many others. Also recognized are our two newest additions; The Universists and The American Heathen himself, RJ Evans!
FOLKS, THESE PEOPLE ARE MY PRESENT DAY CULTURAL HEROES!
That's why I do what I do!
My contribution to our community is to PROMOTE AND SUPPORT these people until they become YOUR cultural heroes. I receive no income from this whatsoever. I have spent a fortune on this endeavor of cultural support. All of Freethought Radio finances will soon be made public. Please see this as MY contribution to the atheist community.
I have spent five hard working years of my life trying to create and cultivate an audio glue(the absolute first of its kind) in an attempt to join together ALL of our secular non-theist, freethinking groups and friends that are so seriously fractured and angry. I am angry too.
But I am continuously amazed at how willing some non-theists are to damage the reputation of other likeminded people for what appears to be minor self-centered reasons that sometimes border on paranoia. One nationally well known group discredits another nationally well known group; one popular personality feels the need to constantly ruin the reputation of another.
This is damaging. I think these people don't know who the enemy is or what the goal is. A good example. I don't host or produce a show and probably never will. I hold up the megaphone that delivers these people to an audience. Still I don’t understand why some show personalities need to compete, slander, discredit or copy Freethought Radio. These people are shooting each other and themselves and me in the ass and wasting alot of time.
They should do what THEY DO BEST …continue to grow and produce their great shows. And they should allow Freethought Radio to DO WHAT IT DOES BEST…operate as their finest collective freethought audio conduit in service to our community.
Some of these people are acting out as a bunch of lost angry children and should be ashamed of themselves. We all want the same thing but lacking corporation and tolerance, (exactly what extreme theists and extreme atheists have in common) all efforts to advancement only result in a game of “annihilate all that is not recognizable or in agreement”. If this nonsense would stop, I expect then, in unison, each personality would earn and grant respect and tolerance to the other for the sake of all and help all voices speak as one. Enough said.
Recently with donation in hand I joined the Pacifica Foundation. This gives Freethought Radio access to much of the programming that's heard on Public Radio. Shows such as Democracy Now!, Counterspin, Free Speech Radio News, Flashpoints!, Between the Lines, and many, many others AND two live satellite feeds. This allows me to intelligently combine our non-main stream views and non-theist programming into the same 24/7 internet radio station with very well accepted and very well known main stream programming. The extreme left and right voices are seldom heard. This is an intelligent and strategic move to the middle, is good stuff and good news for the atheist community.
