Our senior producer is Hans Buetow. Our executive producer is Jason Oberholtzer. The show’s host is Mike Rugnetta.The truth is, I’ve never cared for the NationalAnthem. If you think about it, it’s not a goodsong. Too high for most of us with “the rocketsred glare” and then there are the bombs.(Always, always, there is war and bombs.)Once, I sang it at homecoming and threweven the tenacious high school band off key.But the song didn’t mean anything, just a callto the field, something to get through beforethe pummeling of youth. And what of the stanzaswe never sing, the third that mentions “no refugecould save the hireling and the slave”? Perhaps,the truth is, every song of this countryhas an unsung third stanza, something brutalsnaking underneath us as we blindly singthe high notes with a beer sloshing in the standshoping our team wins.Excerpt of A New National Anthem by Ada LimónNever Post is a production of Charts & Leisure
