The Justice Department is now on Blue Skies, the flagship station of the Netroots Radio Network.


I'm Special Agent DJ Justice; Radio Host on Blue Skies and the Program / Artistic Director for the Netroots Radio Network; and I'm manning the dials, spinning the discs, warbling the woofers, putting a slip in your hip and a trip to your hop.

Subscription radio too far up in space and the cost astronomical after the free trial? Your favorite college and terrestrial stations sold in the dead of night to right wing FCC scofflaws? Liberal and Progressive politics missing from the programming of the stations left?


Blue Skies Netroots Radio is there for ya, baby!

Question: Who is your audience? What are you here for?

Answer: Tribal Alliances, Heart-felt Convictions, Passionate Reason, Random Abandon, Sustainable Civility and a kiss; to comfort the sad and the mad Ones; the Ones roaming the International section of the American Supermarket at night; or roaming the neglected streets looking for an angry malaprop to sink their teeth into; the Ones who seek without seeking and learn as much as they teach; the Ones who embrace and kiss and embrace again; the Ones who sing the song of the city and the ballads of the forest; the Ones who chant the rhythm of the sea and hum the melody of the desert; the Ones who sing the prayer of Her name and Her name is the World. Yes, those are the Ones. -- JP

(I've pledged the minimum $150 to help heat folks in need and cook their food on the Rosebud and Pine Ridge Reservations. Navajo has an important diary posted with all the particulars. Even a small amount can work towards building the minimum. Could you please help?)

You Always Said Pinochet

(words and music
by Justice Putnam)


(roughly to “You Take The High Road)



I’d always say, “Pinoshay”
You always said, “Pinoshet.”

But what of the names of the
Disappeared before Ya!

I will dance on the grave
Of Augusto “Pinoshay”

And you can spit
If you insist
On Augusto “Pinoshet!”
