I appear on RT Television's Alyona Show on February 10th at 6:15 p.m. e.t.  There is an old saying that one man's terrorist is another man's freedom fighter.  We have certainly seen that in the past and the issue continues into the present day.  There is an organiozation based out of Iraq called MEK.  The U.S. State Departmnet has officially called them a terrorism group.  The problem is, we like them.  We like what they do and many want to change that desgination.  I will appear on RT to talk international law and terrorism.

Hope you can watch.

Peter Van Buren will join me on AM 950 on February 5th.  Peter Van Buren is a veteran Foreign Service Office with the United States State Department. After serving 23 years, and serving all over the world, he found himself in Iraq.  After all of these experiences, he has a pretty good idea what works and what doesn't. Considering that experience, his startling revelations regarding the U.S. mission in Iraq are truly extraordinary.  His new book, We Meant Well, is astounding, sad, funny, and a little heartbreaking too. 

Hope you can catch this conversation.  I will post the podcast here on jackrice.org as soon as it is available.  I should add that as this interview will go pretty in depth, there is content that will not be heard on AM 950, only on the podcast.

I appear on RT TV on Monday, January 30th at 6:30 p.m. e.t.  I will be taking a closer look at the American targeted killing program and the willingness of the U.S. government to put Americans in the crosshairs.  Of course, this is not a left or right question.  Rather, all sides seem to have agreed to do this.  Why?

This should be interesting.  Hope you can watch.

The Jack Rice Show on AM 950 starts on Sunday, February 5th.  However, it will not be traditional in the content or the format sense.  My expectation is that we will be shooting as much of the show as possible in a video format as well.  We will then split the audio off of the video.  As a result, much of what you might here on the program, you will be able to come to jackrice.org and see for yourself.  In addition, there will be lots of likes here on jackrice.org and there will also be a lot of extra content that simply is not available because of time constraints.  In fact, I know that I will run long on purpose to provide additional depth and additional content for our web-based audience.  

One of our first interviews will be with nationally syndicated talk show host, TV host, and author, Ed Schultz.  We will also have a video feed so you can watch the interview.  In addition, there will be some content that will only be available online.  Keep checking back for more.  

I truly think that this is going to be a l ot of fun.  I hope that you can join me for the journey.

Ex-WCCOer Jack Rice returns, on AM950

By David Brauer | Published Thu, Jan 19 2012 10:00 am

Fans of Jack Rice, the "journalist, lawyer, former CIA officer" and ex-WCCO radio host, should mark their calendars for Feb. 5, when his new 7-9 a.m. Sunday show debuts on AM950.

Jack Rice

Rice, who has a Minneapolis-based criminal defense practice, was laid off by the Good Neighbor at the beginning of 2009. He'd been doing double-duty at San Diego's KOGO and worked for the California station for a year after departing WCCO. He migrated to Air America — the one-time national home of Sen. Al Franken — and was nationally syndicated before that operation went Chapter 7 in 2010.

AM950 once billed itself as "Air America Minnesota" (an awkward monicker if ever there was one) and now calls itself "The Progressive Voice of Minnesota." Says Rice, "I expect my show to be quite different than what I did on WCCO for some five years ... Regarding my political approach, I intend to be fair and factual.  Of course, I will state my own opinions which I will argue are based upon logical conclusions.  So . . . in short, I will be subjective."

AM950's ratings are a blip (a half-percent of local listeners) and Sundays aren't exactly prime time, but Rice has led an interesting life and he might spice up your weekend listening when "Weekend Edition" is just too patrician.

I appear on KPOJ on January 19th at 8:30 a.m. central time. With another assassination of an Iranian scientist, and with ongoing rhetoric about war, I will appear on KPOJ to talk about intelligence, international law, politics and stability in one of the most dangerous regions in the world.  This should get really interesting. I'm looking forward to it.

Hope you can listen.
