How do you know that Sputnik cancelled the show?

Miriam, nothing is being "blocked". There have been no episodes since September
1, because Sputnik canceled the show.

I answered this before, but I think it was blocked. I have used both feeds.
Neither works. Furthermore, Humanware said that neither one would work. I did
switch, however, from the one that said only Brian Becker, to the one that said
John Kariakou and Brian Becker, just to be sure. It makes no difference. The
last episode that I can find is one from many weeks ago.

Try doing another search for it on your Stream. I just did that. I searched for
the phrase, loud and clear. I got eight results and two of them stated right in
the title that Brian Becker was a host. I am thinking, but I don't know, that
perhaps they gave up the feed that they were using for some reason or another
and started a new one. If that is the case then if you subscribe to the other
one you just might start getting it again.

Loud and Clear is a news and information radio program and a podcast
which is broadcast on Sputnik News. Sputnik News is a Russian
sponsored state radio station, just like the BBC is a British state
sponsored radio broadcast system and NPR is an American state
sponsored radio broadcasting system. The two moderators on Loud and
Clear are Brian Becker and John Kariakou. Brian Becker is a member of
The Answer Coalition, a left leaning organization. John Kariakou is a
former CIA agent who blew the whistle on CIA torture and, for that
reason, was prosecuted and jailed. The people who appear on the
program are many of the same people whose articles I post like Max
Blumenthal and Aaron Mate. Richard Wolff, people from Code Pink, other
economists, an expert on nuclear energy, Kevin Gestola, and many more
whom I can't think of. There are also some people whom I don't know,
some who are rather right wing in outlook, and some from other
countries like Great Britain and China. The podcast suddenly began
becoming unavailable, not downloading, about 6 weeks ago. When I
finally discovered that the only people with whom to check were
Humanware, they checked and said that there was nothing that could be
done about it. It just isn't available. I'm not even bothering to post
this to the Victor Stream list because the last time Sputnik was
mentioned, there were a whole lot of responses about how everything on
it is Russian propaganda. So I'm just venting my frustration here. I
didn't listen every day, and I only listened to the segments in which I was
interested. But I resent that some entity somewhere is making decisions about
what I may hear.
