February 14 Old Mole Variety Hour

The Moles continue to follow the Egyptian revolution on this show, hosted by Bill Resnick.  Bill talks with  Middle-Eastern expert Prof. Stephen Zunes about the prospects for democratic change, and Joe Clement reads two pieces about the significance of events in Egypt.  The Movie Moles review a movie about the struggle to save a community garden from developers.  And we hear from two activists keeping up the fight for single payer health insurance.
