Podcast Feed To The Point

Hosted by Warren Olney, To the Point is a fast-paced, news based one-hour daily national program that focuses on the hot-button issues of the day, co-produced by KCRW and Public Radio International.

Great in-depth current event news - I wish there were more current event news shows like this one. I am always impressed that Warren Olney can pull together great guests with differing opinions and have an educated discussion on current events. It gives a great perspective from all angles. Great show!

When Barack Obama says it's a "smear" to call him a Muslim, Muslim supporters have second thoughts. He's had kind words for the Palestinians, but his hard line for Israel has Arab Americans worried. Does Obama's message of unity have limits?  Is he distancing himself from voters who could make a difference?  Also, the Bush Administration on Iran and climate change.

A new book called The Dark Side compiles evidence that "enhanced
interrogation" has made America more vulnerable, rather than safer. Is
it torture? Did those who ordered it commit war crimes? Was it
counter-productive to the war on terror? Also, rising inflation, and confidence in the economy.

McCain and Obama today went head to head on Iraq and Afghanistan. We
hear about the "surge" and a timetable for troop withdrawals. Is the
Iraq war a distraction from terrorist threats in another part of the
world? Also, Bush and Bernanke on the economy, and the growth in medication for pet mental illness.

Last week Freddie Mac and Fannie Mae lost almost half their stock value—a real blow to the two companies that hold almost half all US mortgages. Bankers, federal officials and members of Congress spent a busy weekend on a bailout that could mean billions in taxpayer money. Also, the President got what he wanted from the Democrats who run Congress including Barack Obama, who promised a filibuster but then voted “yes.”
