‘ON THE GROUND’ SHOW FOR OCTOBER 28, 2022: Horne: The Loose Talk Versus Reality of Nuclear Weapons… Jon Jeter on Jeffrey Sachs, Kanye West and ‘The Letter’… Plus More and Headlines 


As we continue to mark 60 years since the Cuban Missile Crisis, we speak to historian and author Gerald Horne about the loose talk versus reality of nuclear weapons. And whether it is economic Jeffrey Sachs being silenced, Kanye West being cancelled, or the retracted letter from hell, journalist Jon Jeter is in the house to discuss culture and media.  

The show is made possible only by our volunteer energy, our resolve to keep the people’s voices on the air, and by support from our listeners.
