Show brief

The first full four-hour Saturday Session in weeks comes at you live from 3 to 7 PM CST on 970 WMAY, The News and Talk of Springfield. Don't miss this jam-packed program full of information you should be thinking about.

The Latest

From maps to hackers to Iran, opening up the show we'll cover the latest news that will just blow your mind. The war drums are continuing to pound with the target Iran. Can we afford to even support, by proxy, a war with Iran? Also, there were reports of a hacking attack on a water station in Curran. How did national news get that before the Springfield media? Plus the congressional district re-map argument has completed ... which way will the federal court go and what impact will that have on the elections?

Jesse Ventura

Mad as hell and back in the States, Jesse Ventura appears on the Saturday Session to talk about his thrown-out case against TSA, the current field of GOP candidates, his potential bid for the Libertarian party and even his thoughts of the Osama bin Laden murder-mission.

We'll also tell you why you need to pick up copies of Ventura's books 63 Documents the Government Doesn't Want You To Read and American Conspiracies. Also, be on the look out for TruTV's Conspiracy Theory with Jesse Ventura entering it's third season early next year!

Ventura is a former mayor, governor, professor, Navy Seal, professional wrestler, actor ... he's a very accomplished man and has some strong things to say about what is happening to this country. Be listening at 3:30 for Jesse Ventura on Saturday Session with Bishop! That starts an absolutely crammed show full of important interviews.

Occupy Pennsylvania Ave

Just after 4:30 PM CST we'll talk with Steve Beaman about his thoughts on the Occupy Movement that is sweeping the nation. Steve Beaman heads up The Steve Beaman Group, a group that proclaims to provide "Five Paths to a Transformed Life". We'll talk with Steve about why he thinks protesters should be focused on the Government and not those on Wall Street.

The science behind Occupy

At 5 PM CST Saturday Session will welcome in Western Illinois Professor Emeritus David Miller to talk about the Collective Behavior of Social Movements and what he thinks is going on with the Occupy movement. Also we'll review some of his findings in his textbook Introduction to Collective Behavior. We'll also examine what the Occupy Movement's correlations are to the Arab Spring and social media's impact on these movements.

Occupy Saturday Session

At around 5:30 PM CST we'll close out the show with a couple of members from the Occupy Springfield, Illinois, group to talk about their most recent demonstrations/actions, how you can get involved, and the future of the movement here in Central Illinois.
