Coming up on today’s show, we have author and pundit Cliff Schecter back on the show to discuss the Aurora, Colorado tragedy and how the majority of NRA members disagree with NRA leadership over common sense gun control laws.

We also have Mother Jones environmental reporter Kate Sheppard back on the show to discuss how Barack Obama’s refusal to implement the EPA’s smog rules is costing thousands of lives a year and what beaches you should avoid this summer.

We’ll also discuss the death of astronaut Sally Ride and how her partner of 27 years will not receive federal benefits due to DOMA.

Please take a minute to sign our petition for Common Sense Gun Laws.

Our writer-performer today was Tim Grimes.
