CLA Radio 11/16/12: Plan B

  The upcoming ConservativeLA Radio show (on Duane FM in the Hughniverse, Friday, 11/16, 7:00 Pacific/10:00 Eastern) will be somewhat off the beaten track compared to previous shows. The show will be centered around two things: Beethoven’s Symphony No. 9 Choral, and excerpts from Dennis Prager’s 11/7 election postmortem broadcast–both of which, while acknowledging profound grief, offer an equally profound refusal to surrender to despair.
