  • Good clean radio but….

    It’s Vermont Viewpoint so stop with the national and international news.

    Edited 8/15/24: wish host Lee had redirected the Republican spokesman Paul as he trashed Democrats. The Democrat spokesman was polite and respectful. And therein lies the difference.

    Show is called “Vermont Viewpoint” but all they seem interested in is promoting apartheid and genocide.
