NARN supershow!

This afternoon I will be part of a special broadcast of The Headliner edition of the Northern Alliance Radio Network! Yes, the show's usual host, Mitch Berg, will be on in his usual 1-3 PM time slot, but he will be joined by myself, NARN colleague King Banaian and NARN alum Ed Morrissey

About once per year we get the band back together to engage in what Mitch refers to as a "pop culture smackdown." In the past, we've ranked the worst songs of the 1970s and worst sitcoms of the 1980s. 

Today, we'll each compile a list of what we believe are the three worst sitcoms of the 1970s! Given Mitch, King and Ed are all at least 6 years older than me, they have the advantage of real time memories of shows pre-dating 1976 (I was only 7 years old in '76). Without giving away too many details, my three submissions are from the 1978-'79 time frame. Think ya know what they are? I guess you'll have to tune in to find out for sure. 


You can listen live in the Twin Cities at AM 1280 or, if you're near downtown Minneapolis/West Metro area, 107.5 FM on your radio dial. In and out of the Minneapolis-St Paul area you can listen to the program on the Internet by clicking this link, or check us out via iheart radio as well as Amazon Alexa (just say "Alexa, play The Patriot Minneapolis")If you're unable to tune in live, please check out my podcast page for the latest show post.

And if you're so inclined, follow along on Twitter at #NARNShow or "Like" our Facebook page, where we also conduct a "Live Stream" of the broadcast.

Until then.....
