For the first half of the program, Peter and Mickey discuss the conflict in Syria; their guest is independent journalist Eva Bartlett,Â
who recently returned from Aleppo and is now on a U.S. speaking tour. She explains why most corporate media coverage of SyriaÂ
doesn’t depict the actual situation there. In the second half of the program, the guest is Joey Johnson, whose burning of a flagÂ
in 1984 became a U.S. Supreme Court free-speech case. Johnson is facing charges again over the burning of a flag outsideÂ
the 2016 Republican National Convention.Â
