Out of the Woods - Show #290 - 10-31-15
Oct. 27, 2015, 7:03 a.m.
This version of the program is divided into 6 segments so broadcasters who desire to use this content can insert your station info, etc. The segments vary in length.
Out of the Woods is an earthy, wires and wood, mostly acoustic program featuring some of the best new and established artists from the worlds of folk, bluegrass, singer-songwriters, alt.country, Americana, classic country, old-time, Celtic, and everything that falls in between. The show is an unpredictable mix flowing like a river between moods, often with an edge or in a melancholy minor key. On occasion, Out of the Woods features interviews and live in-studio performances with national and international touring musicians. Past guests have included artists such as Bela Fleck, Si Kahn, Brown Bird, Dana Robinson, Steve Gillette & Cindy Mangsen, Kate MacLeod, Bill Bourne, Karl Shiflett, Rachel Bissex, Darryl Purpose, Bow Thayer, Cosy Sheridan and many others. Out of the Woods grew out of Jon 'Chip' Colcord's former acoustic programs, The Song Swap and Music For The Mountain, separate folk and bluegrass programs which aired in New Hampshire during the 1990s. As a child, Colcord grew up a ravenous music fan with an ear for both rock and folk, from Arlo Guthrie to Aerosmith. All of these influences converge on Out of the Woods to bring you a mix which is as much on the edge as it is down home. Folk music with a rock 'n' roll soul

War, Peace & Climate Change: Highlighting the Links
Oct. 26, 2015, 11:48 a.m.
Professor Klare spoke at the annual dinner of Chicago Area Peace Action, ten years after first addressing them on the topic of his book "Blood and Oil". Since then the reality of climate disruption driven by a fossil fuel distorted economy leaves us wondering what we can do about climate change and the convergence of ensuing crisis.
Klare speaks of the COP 21 meeting that will take place this December in Paris and its significance, believing that President Obama is now committed to a radical departure from past US positions on the actions necessary to limit global temperature rise to 2 degrees C. He points out that massive demonstrations and civil disobedience are planned in Europe by civil society groups [to steel their politicians against the influence of pathological investors and transnational corporations]. He suggests that people look for similar actives now being planned across the U.S. in order to move Congress to support the President's plan. He fore sees that the role the US military will be changed by climate disruption.
