its false validation of might makes right when examined in geological scale.

Judith Enck: The Problem With Plastics
Jan. 6, 2026, 8:01 p.m.
The United Nations Environment Programme estimates that each year a staggering 20 million tons of plastic waste is dumped into the world’s oceans, rivers, and lakes – that’s the equivalent of about 2,000 garbage trucks dumped into the globe’s waterways every day. This week on Sea Change Radio we are speaking with Judith Enck, former EPA administrator and current professor at Bennington College. We discuss her recent book, “The Problem with Plastics: How We Can Save Ourselves and Our Planet Before It’s Too Late.” We examine some of the alarming stats associated with what seems to be a never-ending rise in plastics production and consumption, talk about how relatively little plastic is actually recycled, and delve into some policies and practices that can help stem the plastic tide.

Feminist Theology and Women in the Muslim World - Part One
Jan. 6, 2026, 12:35 a.m.
Dr. Riffat Hassan is a Muslim theologian from Pakistan who opposes the Islamic view of the inferiority of women. She says that since anti women legislation and custom are enacted in the name of theology, it is necessary to study the Koran and investigate the source. This required courage since challenging traditional interpretation of the Koran can be a capital offense. On the other hand we are all familiar with the claim that Islam has given women more rights than any other religious tradition. And Riffat Hassan decided to deal with that contradiction.
Riffat Hassan began her quest in 1984 when her feminist friends in Pakistan asked her to help define the theological argument for women’s liberation. That request change her life. The events of 9/11 made her work much harder and she continued to promote understanding of Islam internationally.
This is a rare TUC Radio archive recording of Riffat Hassan from April 1993 at UC Berkeley. We had never heard a purely theological argument for women’s liberation and learned much about Islam that night. We realized how closely related Islam, Christianity and Judaism are, making women of these three faiths the largest minority of any kind in the world. The basic myth of Adam and Eve is embedded in all three religions and is used by all of them to define woman as secondary, inferior and sinful. In this talk Riffat Hassan takes a closer look at the original story told in the Koran and by the end of this program your idea of Adam’s identity, or who was first and the whole issue of the rib will be thoroughly shaken.
Riffat Hassan was Professor of Religious Studies and Humanities at the University of Louisville, Kentucky. She received her PhD from Durham University, UK, in 1968 and has taught in many institutions, including Oklahoma State University and Harvard Divinity School. She retired in 2009 after 33 years of teaching.
She remains active today and never dropped her engagement with these issues. You can find talks by her on YouTube by searching for her name.

New year. New war. In the early morning hours of January 3 2026, the U.S. landed its soldiers in the capital of the Bolivarian Republic of Venezuela and kidnapped its elected president Nicolas Maduro. At least 40 people were murdered in airstrikes as the Empire bombed both civilian and military targets in Caracas. This is blatant aggression. Blatant terrorism. Blatant imperialism.
Episode 273 January 4, 2026 An hour of obscure vintage music to put a smile on your face
Jan. 4, 2026, 2:59 p.m.
Back to normal, serious frivolity this week as Backbeat features music from Wynonie Harris (and his son), Louis Prima, Eddie "Cleanhead" Vinson, Magic Sam, old-timey music from Narmour & Smith, new-timey music from Brad Strang and a lot more.
Jan. 4, 2026, 1:50 a.m.
In this week’s episode, we turn our attention to a conversation that has been stirring debate across global media and academic circles alike—a recent analysis by journalist and political commentator Ali Abunimah, titled “Israel’s Catastrophic Failure.”
This discussion arrives at a moment when the region is still trembling from the aftershocks of the Gaza war, and when the political landscape of the Middle East is shifting in ways that even seasoned analysts struggle to fully grasp.
Abunimah’s commentary cuts through the noise with clarity and precision.
In the clip we explore today, he lays out a stark assessment of how Israel’s political and military strategies have not only faltered, but unraveled in full view of the world. What was once framed as strength has revealed itself as fragility. What was once presented as control has exposed deep structural cracks. And what was once assumed to be an unshakeable regional order is now being rewritten in real time.
At the heart of Abunimah’s analysis is a simple but profound question:
What happens when a state built on the projection of power suddenly finds that power slipping?
He examines the cascading consequences of the Gaza war—not only for Palestinians, whose suffering remains the moral center of this crisis, but also for Israel’s standing on the global stage.
He traces how the war has accelerated a shift in international opinion, widened fractures within long standing alliances, and forced governments around the world to confront uncomfortable truths about their own complicity.
Abunimah also highlights the geopolitical ripple effects:
the recalibration of regional actors,
the emergence of new diplomatic alignments,
and the growing recognition that the old frameworks—political, military, and ideological—can no longer contain the realities unfolding on the ground.
This moment, he argues, reveals the limits of power in the modern Middle East.
Not just Israel’s power, but the power of any state that relies on force, occupation, or narrative control to maintain its position.
The Gaza war has exposed the fragility of these systems, and in doing so, has opened a window into a future where the balance of influence may look very different from the past.
As we listen to this clip, we invite you to sit with the questions it raises:
What does failure look like when it is political, military, and moral all at once?
What does it mean for a regional order when its central pillar begins to crack?
And what possibilities emerge when the world can no longer ignore the consequences of policies that have gone unquestioned for decades?
This episode is not just an analysis of a single moment.
It is an invitation to understand the deeper forces shaping the Middle East today—forces that will define the region’s future, and the world’s, for years to come.

Sam Totten – "Genocide in Darfur"
Jan. 2, 2026, 5:23 a.m.
Genocide is the intent to exterminate in whole or in part a specific group of people often based on nationality, ethnicity, race or religion. For the past two years, in the Darfur region of the nation of Sudan, located in north central Africa and populated primarily by black Africans, the Sudanese government has been committing racial genocide. Reports are that as many as 400,000 black African civilians have been murdered by the Sudanese government together with Arab rebel groups in Darfur. Professor Sam Totten, a scholar in Genocide Studies at the University of Arkansas, Fayetteville, visited the Darfur area in the fall of 2004 and has been examining this present day massacre that most of the world has chosen to ignore. I spoke with Professor Totten from his home in Arkansas and asked him to explain the reasons behind the genocide.

Sam Totten recommends “Shake Hands With the Devil: The Failure of Humanity in Rwanda,” by Romeo Dallaire.
