This week's episode features a short interview with a member of the No-TAV struggle in the Italian Alps. For decades the residents of Val di Susa in northern Italy (near Turin) have been struggling to stop the development of a 30 mile long tunnel through the mountains, across the border to Lyon, France. The project is a European Union one that is one wing of a larger international commercial venture web of restricted transit for goods that EU is attempting to push through. The actual tunneling threatens, among other things, to release enough uranium and asbestos into the air and shallow water-table of Val di Susa and surrounding areas that even the EU estimates that the damage will be measurable and irreparable.
We speak about what shapes the resistance has taken, how anarchists and others have engaged at varying times, and the repression faced from the government. Currently, there are arrests and incarcerations and investigations concerning, among other activities, a night-time raid in 2012 of the militarized construction site of the TAV which was arsoned and effectively shut down for a period of time afterwards. Some of the vocal anarchist and activist arrestees are facing terrorism charges based on Italy's EU-adopted laws concerning resistance to government projects. The new definition basically posits that those who effectively make it so the government can't do something (good or bad) and the EU wants it to happen, the national government is pressed to prosecute.

You re right, size doesn t matter, especially when talking about Classic Sci Fi! And this week we re doing just that as we que up the (1966) outer space gone inner space tale FANTASTIC VOYAGE Starring Stephen Boyd, Donald Pleasence and Raquel Welch. Set in the late 60 s as both the space race and cold war loomed, it tells the story of Stephen Boyd, who heads a team of scientists sent on a bizarre experimental mission. Through a revolutionary and as-yet-untested process, the scientists and their special motorized vehicle are miniaturized, then injected into the blood stream of a near-death scientist. Their mission is to relieve a blood clot caused by an assassination attempt. One member of the expedition is bent on sabotage so that the scientist s secrets will die with him. The film s Oscar-winning visual effects chart the progress of the voyagers through the scientist s body, burrowing past deadly antibodies, chunks of tobacco residue in the lungs, and other such obstacles. Fantastic Voyage was later spun off into a Saturday-morning cartoon series Gotta thank Dan Rodgers for inviting us to revisit this one from long ago. Listen to see where the conversation takes us and just HOW much we agree on whether or not this one stands the test of time. All of that plus our Top 3 Movie Crews

Supreme Court Rules on Workers' Rights; Hobby Lobby and Harris v. Quinn
July 5, 2014, 5:47 p.m.
Join us and our experts to analyze two of the most significant decisions by the Supreme Court ever regarding workers rights. The U.S. Supreme Court decided Sebelius v. Hobby Lobby Stores, that
employers can impose their religious beliefs on their workers through their business policies. Hobby Lobby, a for-profit, private, nationwide chain of arts-and-crafts stores, objects to providing contraception to its employees as mandated by the Affordable Care Act.
The implications of this case for women s reproductive rights and its potential for licensing discrimination in the workplace masquerading as freedom of religion are frightening. And then there s Harris v. Quinn, a First Amendment case involving home-care workers in which the Supreme Court decided that they do not have to pay fair share fees to the union who represents them. This case pitted public employee unions against labor's longstanding foe, the National Right to Work Legal Defense Foundation, which helped bring the case. This case has been characterized as an attempted kill shot aimed at public-sector unions with serious spill over implications for private sector workers as well.
