Rev. Susie the Floozie's "Robigus Day" Special!
April 21, 2014, 2:27 p.m.
Join us as we celebrate April 25th, the feast day of the ancient Roman god of mildew, ROBIGUS! To the Romans, mildew was a serious threat that could result in poisoned, ruined grain stores, so it made sense to put a demigod in charge of the whole process. On April 25th, they threw a festival dedicated to Robigus wherein a red puppy was sacrificed in his name as a bribe. Hell, mildew is taking over my closets, and it seemed like a good idea to toss a little personalized appeasement his way. So I pulled a blast from the mildewed past and played BSTF #17 from April 23, 1994! But back then I wasn't only celebrating Robigus Day, but also the death of Richard Nixon--reason enough for a party in itself!
With a double-barreled musical assist by Oingo Boingo, a psychedelic wonder called "Loose Lip Sync Ships" by the Hogs, the Theme from GREEN SLIME by Charles Fox...and a very, VERY surprising turn by Evil Susie at show's end, one that struck me harder than one of her skillet blows. What the FUCK. Now I'm afraid to be left alone with her...

The Day The Earth Stood Still
April 20, 2014, 7:26 a.m.
KLAATU BARADA NIKTO⦠Put on your Gort Shorts! This week we delve into the (1951) Sci-Fi Classic THE DAY THE EARTH STOOD STILL starring Michael Rennie and Patricia Neal. Considered by most to be the godfather of the genre, it tells the tale of Klaatu (Michael Rennie) and his robot protector GORT, who come to earth to deliver both a message and a warning â which will only be revealed when all the leaders of all nations unite. World politics being what they are in 1951, Klaatuâs demands are turned down and he is ordered to remain in quarantine. Klaatu escapes, taking refuge in a boarding house, where he poses as one âMr. Carpenterâ. There the benign alien gains the confidence of a lovely widow (Patricia Neal) and her son, Bobby â neither of whom tumble to his other worldly origins, and seeks out the gentleman whom Bobby regards as âthe smartest man in the worldâ, an Einstein-like scientist, Dr. Barnhardt. The next day, at precisely 12 oâclock, Klaatu arranges for the world to âstand stillâ , he shuts down all electrical power in the world, with the exception of essentials like hospitals and planes in flight in an attempt to get all of humanity to hear his impending proclamation⦠That and our Top 3 âMovie Robotsâ

The Scottsboro Boys in Their Own Words

Waiting for Justice, The Scottsboro Boys Case Then
& The Central Park Five Case Now
featuring
Prof. Kwando Kinshasa, author The Scottsboro Boys in Their Own Words: Selected Letters, 1931-1950, and
Omowale Clay, activist with the December 12th Movement
The Scottsboro Boys in Their Own Words - the prison letters of nine African American youth facing the death penalty, and what they teach us and today's manifestation of Scottsboro the case of the Central Park Five. Nine African American s were indicted in Scottsboro, Alabama in 1931 falsely accused of rape. Though most of the defendants were barely literate and all of them were teenagers when incarcerated, over the course of almost two decades they learned the basic rudiments of effective letter writing and in doing so forcefully expressed a wide range of perspectives on their circumstances, the nature of the case, and falsity of the charges against them. Now Prof. Kwando Kinshasa author of The Scottsboro Boys in Their Own Words: Selected Letters, 1931-1950, his latest work in his trilogy on the case talks about their survival, courage, resistance and political growth, in their own words through their extraordinary letters, and those of their families and attorneys. Prof. Kinshasa is also joined by community activist Omowale Clay to discuss the contemporary parallel to Scottsboro, the case of the Central Park Five, both ensnared by a racist system, both still waiting for justice!

#320 -- Imperialism Old and New (Part 2)
April 18, 2014, 4:02 p.m.
Part 2 of a classic talk from 1999 by political scientist MICHAEL PARENTI.
Last week, Parenti showed that the purpose of imperialism is corporate profits. This week he shows that imperialism's current form is "multilateral free-trade agreements" such as NAFTA and GATT. These draconian, anti-democratic treaties give corporations the power to veto any national laws that might interfere with their profits.
Parenti's brilliant, passionate, and funny talk is as relevant today as it was in 1999.

Lymph Node Institute: Special Therapy for Barry
April 18, 2014, 11:24 a.m.
BE ON THE LOOKOUT FOR BARRY! There's been an unfortunate security lapse at the Lymph Node Institute! One of their prisoners--uh, patients has filed through his shackles and missed morning roll call. It's going to be an intensive hands-on kung-fu therapy session for our boy Barry tonight--that is, IF the Doktors of the Lymph Node Institute can persuade their rogue human lab rat to turn himself in! Despite the disappearance of one lone loon and the sirens and the gunshots, the Institute's formidable routine surges on within its thick concrete walls--but even the most ironclad, conditioned responses can be skewed by the heightened level of anxiety and the handfuls of "special pils" the Doktors are taking to deal with the stress of this contingency. Aided by Chumbawamba, the Butthole Surfers, the Misfits, and Hegemony, Doc Ellis and Doktor Bugbladder beam random scattershot sonic therapies into the ether, trolling for their lost fish. Will the LNI boys find Barry before it's TOO LATE?
Or worse, and much more likely...
...Will this show unwittingly cause the final schizopsychotic break in some poor random listener named Barry?

Vandana SHiva on Earth Democracy
April 17, 2014, 8:22 p.m.
On March 29, 2014, Dr. Shiva spoke at the North Centennial Community Centre In Winnipeg, Manitoba, Canada at the invitation of a local collective known as Power House Producers in association with the Women's and Gender Studies Students Association, and the University of Winnipeg's Womyn's Centre. Her speech followed a so-called Feast of forgotten foods which highlighted a meal prepared by local activists with organic ingredients all provided by local farmers for an audience of about a hundred people. Preceding the talk was an announcement about a Bill moving through the Canadian House of Commons known as Bill C-18, the Agricultural Growth Act which critics argue undermines traditional farm practices by ensuring the intellectual property rights over new varieties of seeds to the plant breeders that generate them and force farmers to pay a royalty to them when crops from those seeds go to market.
Here now is Dr. Vandana Shiva, speaking on EARTH DEMOCRACY.
