For those of you that listened to the show today, thank you. As most of you know I have a internet radio show and this week we had two guests on, one was Don Nelson from Nevada Life and the other was James Louallen from The Religious Coalition for Reproductive Choice (sounds like an oxymoron to me). Well saying that the debate got a little heated is a HUGE understatement! The show ended with Mr. Louallen hanging up on us.... I loved every minute of it! Listen to it at www.straightuptalk.org its episode 12 (should be featured). Once you have heard it feel free to leave your thoughts on it here or you can email me at anthony@straightuptalk.org
I was way nervous about the show because it was my show this week. I did everything from set the topic to arrange the guests and compile the questions. It took forever to find a pro-choice advocate to come on the show (I had two others tell me no and one of them said I was anti-rights-freedom) once I found the RCRC I was really hoping they would get someone on because I cant comprehend how someone who claims to be Christian can be for abortion. When I contacted them, I was sent an email that said in order to get some one on the show I had to agree to follow four "guidelines":
1. Speakers are not interupted
2. if a debate arises it is civil
3. at no time will we be accused of murder
4. use respectful terms: we are "pro-choice" not "pro-abortion"
right out of the guest when my pro life advocate got on he called them pro-abortion and then the person from the RCRC interrupted him soon after so 2 of the 4 rules were broken by both parties in less than one minute of them being on the show together! (it was kinda exciting but I was afraid the pro-choice advocate was gonna hang up on me). within the first 10 to 15 minutes all four rules were broken and they both stated getting fairly personal ....Mr. Louallen called Mr. Nelson a liar and an idiot I believe and Mr. Nelson said that Mr. Louallen was a joke and was good at throwing up dust (the dust comment wasn't very far from the truth). Overall it was an awesome show and I learned a lot about what some members of the pro-choice side believe. There is so much that happened in the show that if I tried to write it all down this would be one crazy long blog!! (Mr. Louallen quoted scripture than when we quoted it he said he didn't take the scripture literally AHH!)
So you should all listen to the show and let me know what you think. I enjoyed it for sure! Again, the shows site is www.straightuptalk.org and if you would rather call in and leave a voicemail for our show (24 hrs.) than email (anthony@staightuptalk.org) you can do so by calling 775-908-4365
God bless,
Anthony
