Get your fresh hot audio!

If you've been missing the morning radio show, I have a little "fix" for that Pat Habit. Two new interviews are online at mmy lyncho.com home page and available for immediate free download.

State Rep. Jeremy Hutchinson (nephew of Asa) had a strong reaction to my column in the Democrat-Gazette about school standards and the upcoming session. Term-limited Hutchinson also represents Paron and he has the bases covered for small schools. We had a lively discussion about who might best serve the interests of public education when lawmakers meet under the pressure of a promise to cut teh sales tax on groceries and no Supreme Court supervision on Lake View. (44 min.)

The number of independently run, open-enrollment charter schools in Arkansas will more than double in 2007-08 if all 11 applications submitted to the state Department of Education are approved. Dr. Caroline Proctor, Director of the Arkansas Charter School Resource Center at the University of Arkansas, talked with me and she has lots of good background information. (16:30)

Remember, Pat Classic is on 9 to 11 weekday mornings on the Super Talk Arkansas Network.
