Backbeat rolls into to town again this week with lots of vocal harmony, instrumentals, classics and favourites. Mixed in with the usual vintage blues, country, gospel and jazz you'll hear Louis Armstrong covering a Hank Williams hit, (a song that was probably older than both of them). We've also got a blues man who started performing on his own at seven years old and the incomparable Rose Murphy.
Backbeat is also available in a 56 and 58 minute versions in three separate files if you want breaks. I am happy to provide custom station IDs, promos and liners. Email Lorne@Backbeatradio.com or visit www.backbeatradio.com for more information.

Today, we open with a truth many in Washington refuse to face: Trump’s Iran war is bringing down the American empire. Not slowly. Not quietly. But in real time, in front of the world, in ways that expose the fragility of a superpower that once believed it could reshape the Middle East with a single strike.
The Iran confrontation was supposed to be a show of dominance. Instead, it became a mirror reflecting American decline. A war of choice that revealed a nation overstretched, overconfident, and unprepared for the consequences of its own aggression.
And while the empire trembles, the Gulf is rewriting its own destiny.
Let’s see how the Gulf countries once obedient allies, are reshaping their stance. Saudi Arabia negotiating with Iran. Qatar refusing to bend. Turkey rising. And the UAE, the country that always played both sides, suddenly scrambling to bail itself out of Iran’s reach. Deals whispered in back rooms. Gold shipments rumored. Diplomacy conducted in shadows. A quiet panic disguised as strategy.
Then comes Senator Chris Murphy one of the few voices in Washington willing to speak without fear. Murphy exposes what others tiptoe around: Trump enriching himself and his inner circle while the region burns. Contracts. Backdoor deals. Foreign money flowing into private pockets. Murphy lays it out plainly, revealing a network of self interest wrapped in the language of patriotism.
And while Washington argues, the Mecca Pact shifts the balance of power.
Turkey emerges from the pact with a new mandate, a moral, political, and symbolic authority over Israel that Tel Aviv never expected. A pact that turns Gaza from a tragedy into a rallying point. A pact that signals the Islamic world is no longer willing to watch from the sidelines. A pact that gives Ankara leverage it has not held in decades.
But nothing captures the collapse of American power more than the final image, the one the world cannot unsee.
Trump, humiliated, hiding in a food truck. A president sealed inside a metal box meant for plastic trays and catering carts. And outside? His entire administration left behind as a decoy. Exposed. Abandoned. Used as human cover while he disappeared into the shadows.
A leader hiding. A team sacrificed. An empire trembling.
This is where our story begins.

Sonic Café #496/Hooray for Beer!
Aug. 14, 2026, 6:56 p.m.
Sonic Café — “The Survivor,” that’s Nathaniel Rateliff & The Night Sweats. Hey there and welcome to our little coastal radio café in the Pacific Northwest, serving a weekly blend of eclectic music, comedy, and pop culture. I’m Scott Clark, and this is episode 496.
This time we’re spinning a super‑fun mix pulled from 59 years. Former Pentatonix standout Avi Kaplan brings “Peace Somehow,” a tune that feels like it drifted out of our mossy forests. We’ll test your musical IQ with the most‑streamed songs of the last seven decades—see how many you nail. Plus Jimmy Page tells how Led Zeppelin’s classic “Kashmir” came together.
Canada’s greatest party band, Dwayne Gretzky, tears into Paul Simon’s “You Can Call Me Al.” Plus Minus the Bear, Red Hot Chili Peppers, the Black Keys and we’ll also slip in some classic jazz with Wayne Shorter’s “Footprints,” and ride the Sonic Café Time Machine back to 1970 for Mark Lindsay’s “Silver Bird.”
Whew, that’s a lot of goodness—so let’s pour the first round. Celebrating the malted arts, here’s Bowling for Soup with “Hooray for Beer.” And as always, we’re the Sonic Café.
What really happened on October 7th?
Aug. 14, 2026, 6:32 p.m.
This special episode revisits Al Aqsa Flood and the events of October 7th, 2023.
In January 2025, the Electronic Intifada’s executive director, Ali Abunimah, was kidnapped, imprisoned and then deported by Swiss authorities after legally entering the country for an event he was invited to speak at on Palestine. On June 23rd, 2026, Ali returned to Zurich and gave the talk that had been prevented by his 2025 arrest. He discusses the Electronic Intifada’s investigations into the collapse of Israel’s southern command and the widespread use of the Hannibal Directive, including Israeli testimony showing that Israeli forces killed their own civilians on 7 October. He also examines the still unsubstantiated claims of systematic mass rape by Hamas - allegations that collapse when their sources and purported evidence are examined.
On April 22nd, 2024, the Electronic Intifada’s contributing editor, Jon Elmer joined a conversation on Palestinian resistance organized by the European Palestinian Youth Union in Sweden, where he breaks down the coordinated military operation that took place on October 7th.
Jessica Schaeffer— "The Harp: The Second Oldest Human Musical Instrument"
Aug. 14, 2026, 4:23 a.m.
The harp, in its early form, is second only to the flute as the oldest known human musical instrument. The Radio Curious theme music this week is played by professional harpist and harp teacher Jessica Schaeffer, our guest in this edition of Radio Curious. Intrigued by the harp when she saw it at a piano lesson when she was four years old, she began her formal training to play the harp when she was ten. Jessica Schaeffer holds a bachelor’s degree in the study of the harp and a Master’s Degree in music; she plays in symphony orchestras and teaches the instrument she loves. We visited in the studios of Radio Curious where she brought her harp, played for us and told stories, on December 3, 2012.
Jessica Schaeffer’s website is www.jessicaschaeffer.com. The book she recommends is “The Power of Now,” by Eckhart Tolle.

Did you know that the contents of that can of tuna sitting in your cupboard can actually be traced back to the waters and boat where the fish was caught? Organizations like the International Seafood Sustainability Foundation (the ISSF) have placed seafood traceability squarely in the 21st century. This week on Sea Change Radio, we speak with the president of the ISSF, Susan Jackson, to learn more about tuna fishing.
