Out of the Woods - Show #190 11-26-13
Nov. 27, 2013, 8:11 a.m.
This version of the program is divided into 5 segments so broadcasters who desire to use this content can insert your station info, etc. The segments vary in length, but I try to keep them approximately 30 minutes in most cases.
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, 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 Farewell to Justice by Joan Mellen (ONE of TWO)
Nov. 26, 2013, 8:06 p.m.
The re-broadcast of this program with Temple University Professor Joan Mellen is timed to coincide with the immediate aftermath of the 50th anniversary of the Kennedy assassination. Now we know that even in November 2013 the vast majority of mainstream media still name Oswald the lone assassin and still discredit Oliver Stone, whose 1991 Movie JFK features Garrisonâs investigation of the assassination.
Oliver Stone, in November 2013, defended his film, JFK. He said to his attackers on CNN: "There's nothing in the movie that I would go back on," and: âeven more evidence supports my case now."
Joan Mellen agrees with Oliver Stone and supports the film. But she takes it all one step further: Mellen said in a lecture at Rider University on November 2, 2013. âFrom revealing the truth about the Kennedy assassination, ⦠despite the CIAâs efforts to say otherwise, Oliver Stoneâs film went on to become a historical event in its own right."
She explains how JFK awakened so profound a response in the millions who saw the film, that people demanded that the still classified records be revealed. Congress passed the President John F. Kennedy Assassination Records Collection Act of 1992 and five million documents, photos, films, audio recordings and physical objects were released. They are now housed at the National Archives in College Park, MD. âThe releases kept coming into the millenniumâ Mellen says but âground to a halt under the Obama government.â

Social Justice Activism and Information overload
Nov. 26, 2013, 7:48 p.m.
Thanks to wireless technology, smart phones and social media tools such as twitter, the amount of information being produced and received is growing exponentially. But where do we find the time to keep up with all that information? Do we need to? What happens we we are overloaded with information? As information, ideas and education are central to almost all social movements I wanted to investigate how social activists are dealing with information overload.
Strange + Rare Birds: Ralph Steadman & Ceri Levy (re-broadcast)
Nov. 26, 2013, 7:46 p.m.
Confronted with the topic of extinct birds, filmmaker and author Ceri Levy took an unorthodox route to raising awareness. He enlisted the irreverent and intoxicating painter, Ralph Steadman, whoâs most famous as the partner-in-crime and illustrator for legendary gonzo journalist, Hunter S. Thompson.
Levy and Steadman embarked on the project, Extinct Boids, and created a coffee table book that documents in colorful hilarity many species of birds that have ceased to exist on the earth, as well as some that only ever existed in the recesses of Steadmanâs unrestrained mind. A portion of the proceeds of the book go to supporting wildlife preservation through BirdLife International. While the book is at once a joyful exploration of imagination and a somber reflection on conservation, the conversation youâre about to hear in which host Alex Wise attempts to keep up with the creators of "Extinct Boids" is almost completely inane.

Interview with "Goliath" author Max Blumenthal
Nov. 25, 2013, 8:15 p.m.
In this week's edition, Sam Seder of the "Majority Report" interviews Max Blumenthal, author of the new book "Goliath: Life and Loathing in Greater Israel."
Quoting from uprisingradio.org/home/2013/11/11/goliath-life-and-loathing-in-greater-israel ...
Goliath is a Biblical reference to âa giant Philistine warrior who was slain by David with a stone and sling.â In todayâs colloquial usage we commonly use the battle between David and Goliath as an analogy for a conflict in which one side of a war is so disproportionately and overwhelmingly stronger than the other that it is an unfair fight.
The intrepid young reporter Max Blumenthal has used the term Goliath to name his latest book based on many months he spent in Israel soon after the Israeli operation on Gaza named Operation Cast Lead was over. The subject of Israel is often a touchy one and Blumenthal has indeed touched many nerves with this book.
We think you will find this interview informative and delicious.
From therealnews.com: Max Blumenthal is an award-winning journalist and bestselling author whose articles and video documentaries have appeared in The New York Times, The Los Angeles Times, The Daily Beast, The Nation, The Guardian, The Independent Film Channel, The Huffington Post, Salon.com, Al Jazeera English and many other publications. His most recent book is Goliath: Life and Loathing in Greater Israel. His other book, Republican Gomorrah: Inside The Movement That Shattered The Party, is a New York Times and Los Angeles Times bestseller.
