http://www.radio4all.net/program/122452Podcast for Program: Jerome Waldie- "Fair Play for Frogs, Part 2"Fri, 12 Jun 2026 01:00:00 +0000240http://www.radio4all.net/program/122452As a lawyer and a student of political science, I have come to appreciate the anomalies and humor of politics. One story that fits both of those categories well is the relationship between Nestle J. Frobish, the Chair-Creature of World-Wide Fair Play for Frogs Committee and the late Jerome R. Waldie, his former nemesis a Member of Congress from Antioch, just east of San Francisco, California. Their dissension arose in 1961 when Waldie was a freshman member of the California State Assembly and chose to introduce what came to be known as the “Frog Murder Bill,” resulting in Frobish organizing what turned out to be a 45 year campaign to get Waldie to renounce, what Frobish called his “vestigial impurities” visited upon him as the “mad butcher of the swamp.” Waldie finally acceded in 2006 and in this interview originally broadcast on June 11, 2007, tells us why. The book that Jerome Waldie recommends is, “It Can’t Happen here,” by Sinclair Lewis.Radio Curious - Barry VogelFri, 12 Jun 2026 01:00:00 +0000
