In Case You Missed It - How to Fix Our Politics (the Radio Infographic)

The Infographic (for monitors using 8x5 aspect ratio)

I first saw the article, 8 Ways To Fix Our Politics, in the latest edition of Newsweek  magazine. My wife (who is awesome) handed it to me, driving to to a gig at the beach; she knows I don't ride/idle well. We discussed it for a good chunk of the trip - Best. Travel companion. Ever.

After a day or so, it occurred to me how this might make for good content on the show, "Room 3026 Live," and eventually came up with the concept of a "Radio Infographic". It was kind of a silly idea, which is why I liked it. And surprisingly, it worked out quite well.

A couple of folks have asked about it, so here you go. The audio is embedded at the bottom of this page, for your convenience. Or, download the MP3s via the following links:

• Show from Friday 8/19 (pt. 1): http://www.blogtalkradio.com/damondnollan/2011/08/19/room-3026-live
• We did part 2, today: http://www.blogtalkradio.com/damondnollan/2011/08/22/room-3026-live

The Politics segment of the programs are near the end (on both episodes).

For fun, I pulled up the graphics from the original Daily Beast site to re-factor it into a desktop wallpaper. If your monitor uses an 8x5 aspect ratio, get it from the above header graphic, or from here: https://picasaweb.google.com/106133717317375074529/WooMyDesktopWMDForMyBlogNoParticularOrderHttpDbfunkyBlogspotCom#5643750799185534066

Here's the 4x3 version: https://picasaweb.google.com/106133717317375074529/WooMyDesktopWMDForMyBlogNoParticularOrderHttpDbfunkyBlogspotCom#5643750805950852338

All it took was Irfanview and about 5 minutes. Chances are one of them will fit your screen, perfectly. Enjoy. Thanks for listening. And by all means, do let us know how you feel about all of this via your comment posts.
