Introduction to Dante.org

Welcome to Dante.org.

This is the first post of many, I hope. It’s been a number of years since my weekly AM talk radio show on 1400 WFTL in South Florida. The show was called “Radio Dante” ‘A One Hour Embargo on Political Correctness’ which was meant as a play words based on “Radio Marti”.

When the station was sold and the format was changed from politics and social issues to “all financial” radio I ended my hobby. Nowadays the station broadcasts on 850 AM.

My weekend show was about current issues discussed in the the news and my take on them. As I look back on the numerous boxes of cassette tapes of those shows between 1993 to 1998 I see how many of my ideas were too early. I predicted many things that many folks brushed aside.

Some of my big issues were:

* Illegal immigration and the security of the US
* Danger of the tobacco lawsuits and where it would lead
* Social Security concerns
* The dangerous agenda of the animal rights movement

As I remember the others I will post them. Eventually I will convert some tapes into a format that can be downloaded onto your iPod.
Lately, I prefer Podcasts to radio. I have been very involved with the Internet before there was the Web and I see Podcasts as one of the most exciting things to come along so far. I see it as Tivo for radio.

My current plans are to begin doing a weekly PodCast following the same format as my old radio show. This blog exsists to support.

Stay tuned, it won’t be long.

Regards,

Dante
