508 #33: The Dragon Sorcerer (May 2, 2008)
508 is a show about Worcester. This week's panel includes Brendan Melican.
You wouldn't know it from reading the Telegram & Gazette, but, as at other papers, their circulation is still dropping. The news could be worse. Mike notes a goofy headline. (Brendan mentions the 2-headed kitten in Milbury and a T&G column that made it to Fark.)
We have an exclusive interview with two of the kids behind the play The Dragon Sorcerer, which will be performed in Worcester May 9 and 10.
Mike summarizes this week's InCity Times and praises Annie's Clark Brunch.
We listen to Gary Rosen speak about the possible decriminalization of marijuana in Massachusetts.
Brendan:
Next fall marijuana will be decriminalized in the state of Massachusetts. There's no doubt about it . . . . All the Billy Breaults in the world are not going to stand in the way of this happening. There's just too much public support out there.
Brendan shares his thoughts on the resolution of the strip club zoning issue.
We finish the show with an excerpt from the audiobook of Cory Doctorow's new young adult novel Little Brother. Mike is going to buy a copy for a teen he knows who likes civil liberties and dislikes The Man.
