Blue Jersey Radio - 2008 Year in Review

by: Jeff Gardner

Mon Dec 29, 2008 at 11:00:00 AM EST



What can we say? Blue Jersey Radio is really fun to do. We get to interview great guests, we can say anything we want, and we even let our callers have their say (sometimes). And every so often, we get to glance - er, listen - back to the results. It has been a pretty awesome year.

We invite you to do the same, as we present Blue Jersey Radio's Year in Review:

National Figures

This year, we interviewed national democratic and grassroots leaders, an Oscar winner, and the founder of Republicans for Obama.

State Progressive Leaders

We sat down with prominent leaders and activists in the state, who have played an important role in making New Jersey among the most progressive states in the nation.

Progressive Challengers

And we heard from the brave souls who stood up to challenge incumbents in races that began as longshots, but quickly inspired all of us to dream big.

And, this is just a sampling of some of the year's best memories. Most of all, we had lots of fun this year, and hope you did too. Thanks everybody, and Happy New Year!

We'll be back in 2009!
