Classified Woman on PBC Radio Show-Part I
Peter B. Collins interviewed me for his show, and we went on for two hours of an uninterrupted ‘unplugged session.’ I must tell you (many of you already know this): Peter knows how to unplug his guests. And I was no exception!
Here is how it goes with me: I always have a ‘fairly stiff’ start when interviewed. Usually it takes about 15 to 20 minutes before I relax and let it pour. This is why I don’t like doing those 10-15 minute sound-bite interviews broken up by several commercial sessions. I am putting it mildly when I say ‘don’t like’- it is more like ‘I passionately hate.’
Now back to Peter B. Collins interview. During the last 30 minutes of our two-hour session (Second half of End of Part II) I went ‘totally unplugged.’ What do I mean by that? I am talking about passion and bottled up emotions pouring out (by the way: no- I was not sobbing). I am not going back to listen to it (I never listen to my own interviews-NEVER). However, I highly recommend listening to this two-part interview series if you are interested in this story-my case and my book.
And finally, as always, I am thankful to Peter for providing me with this opportunity. During my WB journey, between 2005 and 2008, he interviewed me at least 5 times. He was and is my favorite radio host, and no one comes close when it comes to ‘unplugging’ guests, uncovering topics-issues, and presenting highly informative interviews.

My Midnight Hour Radio Interview
Last night, actually ... this morning (since we are talking 12:00 a.m. interview here!) I was interviewed by journalist, producer and radio host James Corbett. Despite several commercial breaks we were able to cover several important topics related to Classified Woman.
Tonight on the program we are joined by FBI whistleblower, transparency activist, and alternative media personality, Sibel Edmonds, about her new memoir, Classified Woman. We discuss the details of her Kafkaesque struggle trying to bring her story to light and how she has managed to publish her book in the face of opposition and subversion from the government, the media, and the foundation-funded NGOs who are supposed to “protect” the whistleblowers.

Please let me know what you think. Do I make sense after midnight- after turning into a pumpkin?

Review: "Sibel Edmonds Finally Wins"
Excerpts:
I've read a million reviews of nonfiction books about our government that referred to them as "page-turners" and "gripping dramas," but I had never read a book that actually fit that description until now.
...
The F.B.I., the Justice Department, the White House, the Congress, the courts, the media, and the nonprofit industrial complex put Sibel Edmonds through hell. This book is her triumph over it all, and part of her contribution toward fixing the problems she uncovered and lived through.
...
Yet, thus far, no branch of our government has lifted its little finger to fix the problem of secrecy and the corruption it breeds, which Edmonds argues has grown far worse under President Obama. That's why this book should be spread far and wide, and read aloud to our misrepresentatives in Congress if necessary. This book is a masterpiece that reveals both the details and the broader pattern of corruption and unaccountability in Washington, D.C. Edmonds has not exposed bad apples, but a rotten barrel of toxic waste that will sooner or later infect us all -- not just the whistleblowers like Sibel and the thousands of people in our government who see something and dare not say something for fear that we will not have their back.
