John and Molly present Radio Dispatch Live!

Radio Dispatch official site

John and Molly Knefel are siblings, writers, and comedians. Together, they host Radio Dispatch, a progressive political podcast that airs Monday through Thursday. Combined, they’ve written for the Nation, the New Inquiry, Salon, Truthout, Alternet, Feministing, the Hairpin, and xoJane, and appeared on Countdown with Keith Olbermann, the BBC, NPR, and 30 Rock. They began their comedy show, John and Molly Get Along, over 3 years ago, and produced a well-received web series of the same name.

With Radio Dispatch Live, John and Molly will bring their comedy and politics to the stage. Each show will be a conversation, featuring guest thinkers, writers, and performers. Imagine a Sunday talk show, but with beer and radical analysis.

Jamie Kilstein

Jamie has been seen on The Conan O’Brien Show, MSNBC’s Up with Chris and Melissa Harris-Perry Show, Totally Biased on FX, NPR’s Weekend Edition, Countdown with Keith Olbermann, Showtime’s The Green Room, CNN’s The Joy Behar Show, The Paramount Comedy Channel in the UK, The BBC, The Comedy Channel in Australia, HBO Canada, and Showtime Comedy in the Middle East.
 
His latest CD, What Alive People Do, spent its first week released at number one on both the iTunes and Amazon comedy charts. It also is the first CD released by Standup Records to be reviewed in The Rolling Stone.
 
He co-hosts Citizen Radio, which has been praised by Janeane Garofalo, Noam Chomsky, Robin Williams. He and his co-host were named by The Nation Magazine as top “media heroes”. Most importantly Glenn Beck has called him a “doofus” and “goofball” and Jonah Goldberg refuses to fight him.
 
He was a Timeout Chicago, Sydney, New York and London’s Critics Pick. He has played the concert hall of the Sydney Opera House and opened for Bad Religion. Before that he lived out of his car and dropped out of high school. Take that, life!
