Israel Declared a Theocracy by its Government; Josh Ruebner speaks
Dec. 4, 2014, 1:21 p.m.
We begin with a discussion of the remarkable new Israeli law recently proposed (and subsequently enacted) declaring Israel a nation of Jewish people only, in other words, a theocracy. This contradicts its original declaration that it's a democracy, and of course casts a frightening shadow on all 20% of Israeli citizens who are not Jewish.
Our main presentation today is a speech by Josh Ruebner, which we recorded and edited. Ruebner is national advocacy director for the U.S. Campaign to End Israeli Occupation, a national coalition of more than 400 organizations. Reubner is a citizen of both the United States, where he was born, and Israel, from where his father hails. He spoke recently in a church in Bedford, Massachusetts. He recently released an updated edition of his book "Shattered Hopes: Obamaâs Failure to Broker Israeli-Palestinian Peace," and that is his subject now. The book charts Obamaâs journey from optimism to frustration in the first hard-hitting investigation into why the president failed to make any progress on this critical issue, and how his unwillingness to challenge the Israel lobby has shattered hopes for peace.

Why Good People are Divided by Politics and Religion
âWhen it comes to moral judgments," Jonathan Haidt says, "we think we are scientists discovering the truth, but actually we are lawyers arguing for positions we arrived at by other means.â Jonathan explains âliberalâ and âconservativeâ not as political affiliations, but as personality types. His own self-described views as âconservative-hating, religion-hating, secular liberal instinctsâ have been challenged by his own studies. Jonathan talks with Krista Tippett.
Jonathan Haidt is the author of "The Righteous Mind: Why Good People are Divided by Politics and Religion." Jonathan is Professor of Ethical Leadership at The Stern School of Business at New York University.

Out of the Woods - Show #243 - 12-6-14
Dec. 4, 2014, 7:23 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

A Child's Country Christmas in the 1950s through the eyes of a 9 Year Old
Dec. 3, 2014, 7:40 p.m.
Larry Krotz reads from his latest book, A Child's Country Christmas. He selects the magical annual Christmas concert presented at his one-room school in SW Ontario in the late 1950s, when he was 9 years old.
After the reading, Krotz laments that now the one-room school house is property for someone in the city to use on weekends and holidays. What was a "fully packaged culture" for a 9 year old in the late 1950s has been lost. The farmers struggle working on the farm and in the city. Building community has turned into searching for bargains at the nearest Wal-Mart. The only push-back is the holistic and organic farm movement.

'Tis The Season For A Good Guide
Dec. 2, 2014, 4:10 p.m.
Itâs that time of year, again: the season of givingâ¦or at least the season of buying. When youâre perusing the shelves, be they virtual or actual, what matters to you? Beyond price, quality and value what about knowing how the company that made this product treats its workers, the extent to which production depletes natural resources, and what impact this product has on the environment? Many of us care about these things in the abstract, but it would be awfully arduous to research all of that while we are out there trying to get our shopping done. If only there were an app. But there is!
Our guest this week is Dara OâRourke, UC Berkeley professor and co-creator of Good Guide, a website and smart phone app that consumers can use to make informed decisions on what theyâre buying. Just scan the barcode and get a productâs score on topics ranging from social justice to greenhouse gas emissions. We talk about what has to happen next to help boost consumer awareness, like increasing transparency on the use of nanoparticles, fragrances, and genetically modified organisms and how tricky it is to calculate a comprehensive product score for social responsibility.
Dec. 2, 2014, 3:36 p.m.
I'm almost afraid to post this horrific thing...
This show cut a deadly swath through my studio electronics, taking out two tapedecks, fucking up my monitor resolution, and making the show computer run hinky--and it also gave the unflappable computer at WREK a conniption when I uploaded it. Hell, as far as I know, it could have an even deadlier agenda brewing--it may take all 12 of my listeners out like a fucking David Cronenberg effect. The sad thing is that this show, BSTF #236, at first blush seemed to be no more than a kicky, silly, and bright examination of the polyester decade as filtered through its corporate-fueled memes. But as I was retooling it and polishing it all up for playing some 15 years later, I began to feel as if unreeling the audiocassette was tantamount to weaving an evil spell. The song at issue was a recording of the annoying "Afternoon Delight" done by fellow COOL & STRANGE MUSIC Magazine contributor Wilhelm Murg--he had played a 45 of it at 33 rpm, and the result sounded like the singers were on 'Ludes. I thought about monkeying with it to make it sound even queasier, but I stayed my editing hand in favor of preserving Murg's original mix. But an evil fate had other plans: The first tapedeck developed a crackly hum that wouldn't go away, then the Yamaha Natural Sound deck ground to a slow halt, then totally went tits up. It made for an incredibly queasy mix...but at what price? And will it affect you?
In light of this, I would be remiss if I failed to warn all of you not to listen to it tonight. PLEASE DO NOT LET THIS EVIL SHOW INTO YOUR HOMES. Keep this show away from children, housepets, glass, fresh milk, automotive vehicles, earth-moving equipment, heart-lung machines, computer systems, and sexual appliances. And as always, the staff and management of "BOB"'s SLACKTIME FUNHOUSE is not responsible for any breakage, wear and tear, floods, fires, electrocutions, nosebleeds, brain hemorrhages, and/or spontaneous abortions as a result of listening to this show.
Hey, I warned you!
Now if you'll excuse me, I've got just enough time to make myself a protective fort out of sofa cushions wrapped up in all the aluminum foil I can get my claws on.
