Topic: Keith Perry

The discussion focuses on Keith Perry, a micro-broadcaster operating a 90-watt station at 95.9 FM in North Austin. Perry uses a 70-foot tower and professional engineering to ensure his signal does not drift or interfere with other stations. The panel also references Stephen Dunifer of Free Radio Berkeley, who successfully challenged FCC injunctions in federal court on First Amendment grounds.

Keith Perry's argument that the FCC only has jurisdiction over interstate radio is examined, suggesting that low-power signals staying within state lines should be exempt from federal control. The panel warns that despite legal arguments, the FCC and local police often seize equipment, including non-broadcasting items like refrigerators, during raids. They compare the current micro-broadcasting surge to the hemp movement's use of civil disobedience.

A protest against controlled media is announced for May 29th at the KI Studios on Metric Boulevard. The hosts mock mainstream anchors like Dan Rather, suggesting they are merely teleprompter readers for the Council on Foreign Relations (CFR). Additionally, the "Austin Alternative News & Music Hour" on 95.9 Radio Tejas is promoted, noting that operator Keith Perry continues to broadcast despite threats of heavy fines.

Footage shows Capitol Police surveilling the Independence Day rally, which the hosts describe as a "decoy" for more sophisticated surveillance. They celebrate Alex Jones's new nightly radio show on KJFK 98.9 FM as a major victory for the movement. Additionally, they mention Keith Perry's pirate radio broadcast of the event, which reached several miles using a small antenna.
