Today, as the show is running, is only the second day of Hannukah, since the days begin at sunset.

Day 1: 6 pm Dec 20 - 6 pm Dec 21
Day 2: 6 pm Dec 21 - 6 pm Dec 22
Day 3: 6 pm Dec 22 - 6 pm Dec 23
Day 4: 6 pm Dec 23 - 6 pm Dec 24
Day 5: 6 pm Dec 24 - 6 pm Dec 25
Day 6: 6 pm Dec 25 - 6 pm Dec 26
Day 7: 6 pm Dec 26 - 6 pm Dec 27
Day 8: 6 pm Dec 27 - 6 pm Dec 28

Thom's wishes of "shabat shalom" on Fridays are also somewhat premature, since the sabbath starts at 6 pm Friday, and the show is on about 6 hours before that.

From Cracking the Code:

"In Cracking the Code, Thom Hartmann, America’s most popular, informed, and articulate progressive talk show host and political analyst, tells us what makes humans vulnerable to unscrupulous propagandists and what we can do about it. It is essential reading for all Americans who are fed up with right-wing extremists manipulating our minds and politics to promote agendas contrary to our core values and interests."

—David C. Korten, author of The Great Turning: From Empire to Earth Community and When Corporations Rule the World and board chair of YES! magazine

From The Thom Hartmann Reader:

"With the ever-growing influence of corporate CEOs and their right-wing allies in all aspects of American life, Hartmann’s work is more relevant than ever. Throughout his career, Hartmann has spoken compellingly about the value of people-centered democracy and the challenges that millions of ordinary Americans face today as a result of a dogma dedicated to putting profit above all else. This collection is a rousing call for Americans to work together and put people first again."

—Richard Trumka, President, AFL-CIO

From Screwed:

"Hartmann speaks with the straight talking clarity and brilliance of a modern day Tom Paine as he exposes the intentional and systematic destruction of America’s middle class by an alliance of political con artists and outlines a program to restore it. This is Hartmann at his best. Essential reading for those interested in restoring the institution that made America the envy of the world."

—David C. Korten, author of The Great Turning and When Corporations Rule the World
