Awake... with John & Markus - Conversational Therapy for the Revolution. Tuesday - Saturday, 10:30 am PT / 1:30 pm ET. Join  the conversation via YouTube live chat or anytime on Twitter @Bernie2016TV #AwakeWithJohn ... we are a Family!

Awake is rated R for intermittent F-bombs and penis-extension humor, but is otherwise the highly intelligent parsing of the mad goings on in the present world.

John, from the US, and Markus from Germany,  discuss what's really going on in the world right now and provide nuanced perspectives that you won't hear on your evening MSM News.
