Evil Susie's "Light My FIRESTORM!" Show

Tonight the show becomes EVIL SUSIE'S SLACKTIME FUNHOUSE! It's prescient that Ray Manzarek was mentioned on scrubgenius this week, because tonight's show is NOTHING BUT every single version of "Light My Fire" I could pack into the hour--and I couldn't pack it all in, so it's overflowing. You want to hear a heavy metal version of that song? Got it. You want funk/soul? Got it. You want "psychedelic bluegrass," whatever the friggin' hell that is? Got it. You want a bunch of Japanese guys who sing "Come on, Baby, right my fiyah"? Ooh yeah, we got that, too--along with classical violin, pop pablum, easy glistening...and so much more. If I was to say to you that we didn't, you know that I would be a *riar.* The perpetrators of this crime (besides ME) are as follows: Methodica For Sale Band, Belgrade (from Yugoslavia) Charlie Parra (heavy metal guitarist from Peru) Mike Flowers Pop Soul Session (at the 15-min. mark) Ananda Shankar (Of COURSE it's sitar!) Type O Negative The Psychedelic Soul Jazz Guitar of Joe Jones The Flowerz (1968 garage band out of Reading, PA) Ebony Rhythm Band (at the 30-min. mark) Beresford Creek ("psychedelic bluegrass" from 1977) Soul Sam (reggae) The Mops (at the 45-min. mark--1968 Japanese psychedelia!) Julie Driscoll, Brian Auger & The Trinity Amorphis (heav-VEE metal) Colin Tribe (ukelele) Helmut Zacharias & His Orchestra (easy glistening) Nigel Kennedy (classical violin--9 minutes of it!)

Child of God

This week we boldly take on the James Franco’s directed CHILD OF GOD from American novelist Cormac McCarthy, if you know his work (The Road, Blood Meridian, No Country for Old Men), then you know the tone… Set in mountainous Sevier County, Tennessee in the 1960s, Child of God tells the story of Lester Ballard, a dispossessed, violent man described as “a child of God much like yourself perhaps.” Ballard’s life is a disastrous attempt to exist outside the social order. Successively deprived of parents and homes and with few other ties, Ballard descends literally and figuratively to the level of a cave dweller as he falls deeper into crime and degradation… Released in the summer of 2013,Child of God was placed for official competition at the 70th Venice International Film Festival and was an official selection of the 2013 Toronto International Film Festival – After its release to the public, it received mainly mixed reviews – from scathing to high praise. Many people who watched the film have gone on to say that “Although they thought it may have been good, they just couldn’t like it, nor would they EVER recommend it”. Franco did however garner a fair amount of “attaboys” from his peers who saw his ability to take on such material for a directorial debut as highly bold and brave… We cap it off with our Top 3 Movie Degenerates, why wouldn’t we?

Liberal Intoxication - Robert Kagan Under the Influence of An Idea

1st in a series of programs to explore ideas that are engaging and shaping the world. Dr. Kagan has the ear of former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton who may be the next President of the US. Libya along with Iraq and Syria was on Dr. Kagan's to do list of countries in need of "Democracy Promotion", and as Secretary of State, Hillary Clinton orchestrated US bombing of Moammar Gadhafi's troops under the pretext of a humanitarian intervention. http://www.globalresearch.ca/the-neoconservative-hit-list-iraq-libya-and-now-syria-a-plan-for-global-us-military-supremacy/5407538 Dr. Kagan is a brilliant speaker who has the ear of other powerful people. Among them his wife, Victoria Nuland, Assistant Secretary of State for European and Eurasian Affairs, is implicated in organizing the coup against the elected (democratic) government in Ukraine to place a more compliant "elected" leader in power. Near the end of the presentation, "what to do about the Ukraine?" was raised. His response personalized the crisis to Putin, ignored the US backed regime in Kiev's murderous attacks on civilians in the eastern Russian speaking area, and recommended placing a NATO Division on the Russian border of a non-NATO country; the very act that the Russians have repeatedly stated they see presents them an existential threat and would lead to war. Dr. Kagan is of the notion that the Russians are bluffing. Former Secretary of State Madeleine Albright, who shares Dr. Kagan's ideas, thought that the deaths of 500,000 Iraqi children due to sanctions she oversaw was "worth it" to achieve the policy ends of the Clinton administration; unfortunately the program ended before Dr. Kagan was asked what would be an acceptable death toll for him to achieve his goal of subjugating Russia to US dominance.

Commemorating Black History Month: Nina Simone, Musician and Civil Rights Activist Extraordinaire

In commemoration of Black History Month, Phil Taylor plays Nina Simone's Mississippi Goddamn, an inspiring song Nina wrote in response to the 1963 assassination of Medgar Evers and the Birmingham church bombing that killed four young African-American girls. Phil Taylor gives an interesting background of Simone--from her birth in February of 1933, to her parents discovery of her talent, to her first recital where she refused to perform if her parents were removed from the front row, to her studies at Julliard to her participation in the civil rights movement which she considered an historical "watershed" moment and to her death in 2003. Taylor turns to the new film Selma and contrasts the political and humanitarian significance of Selma to the political anti-humanitarian film The American Sniper, about the life of real life sniper Chris Kyle. Taylor points out that MLK was martyered by a sniper who deprived humanity of a great leader, while Chris Kyle was an American sniper in Iraq who deprived humanity of their civil liberties, human rights, culture and life. MLK represented life and hope.

Paul Rusesabagina's indictment of Rwandan dictator Paul Kagame

Guest: Paul Rusesabagina, the humanitarian Rwandan hotel manager who hid and protected 1,268 Hutu and Tutsi refugees during the Rwandan Genocide in April 7 -mid-July of 1994, author of An Ordinary Man: An Autobiography Paul Ruseabagina describes Rwanda President Kagame as a brutal dictator who has created human rights abuses all over the country and who does not want to lose his presidential immunity and face international indictments against him nor does he want to face a new president -- which might be why Kagame has indicated he might violate the Rwandan Constitution and run for another term (another fake election). Ruseabagina emphatically states that the economic miracle performance picture that Kagame paints is false. Kagame has total impunity to lie, forge more wars in the Congo, assassinate both former friends and foes who fled to other countries, imprison thousands, including Victoire Ingabire who has the courage to return to Rwanda in 2010 and run for president.

The End of American Exceptionalism with Andrew Bacevich

“Andrew Bacevich speaks truth to power, no matter who’s in power, which may be why those of both the left and right listen to him.” — Bill Moyers Andrew examines of the triple crisis facing America. An economy in disarray that can no longer be fixed by relying on expansion abroad and a government transformed by an imperial presidency into a democracy in name only and an engagement in endless wars that has severely undermined the nation. Andrew recommends a respect for the limits of power and an aversion to claims of exceptionalism and skepticism of easy solutions, especially those involving force. Andrew is convinced that Americans must live within their means. Source: The End of American Exceptionalism with Andrew J. Bacevich Music includes Brenna Sahatjian - Rise Like Lions, William Valenti - Wall Street Greedheads, The Compassionate Conservatives - In The Garden of Eden (Zinn-Fisk-Nader mix), Hari Kondabolu - 2042 & The White Minority, Jimmy Cliff at Glastonbury 2011 - We Don't Want Another Vietnam in Afghanistan, Capitol Steps - Obama Meets Osama, Jammin Inc - Propaganda, Dala Girls - Best Day, Queen - We Are The Champions, The Beatles- Here Comes The Sun, Philip Glass - Colourbox
