While this makes a fascinating radio narrative, I listen through it to hear the year 1973, because Marty's crew spent a week capturing wild ambient sound to mix into the soundtrack. You can't mask the reality coming through. Oh, we also get a thick dose of Little Italy atmosphere, what with the continual oldie pop songs and opera playing everywhere, and that beside the traffic, street noise, parties, bars, and dialogue. The people we get to know here are terrible. They're petty criminals and racists (they all seem to hate black people while doo wop serenades them), yet somehow we are drawn to them. We become witnesses. It's truly a parallel universe very like our own, whether we want to admit that or not. This show might even put you in a trance. (It happened to some live listeners.)
Prison Rights and Solitary Confinement in Canada
June 9, 2013, 6:49 p.m.
Last month, the Government of Canada reached a settlement with BobbyLee Worm, a 26 year-old Aboriginal woman who was held in solitary confinement for more than three and a half years. The lawsuit charged that Ms. Worm was treated illegally and inhumanely. The BC Civil Liberties Association represented Ms. Worm in the groundbreaking case.
The Rush Limbaugh Drug Spree Show!
June 9, 2013, 6:48 p.m.
Yes! It's been awhile since I played this one--and since I had titled it "The Oxycontinental," I'm sure many people had no idea it was a Rush Limbaugh joke and skipped it. And that's a fucking shame, because I suffered like a bitch putting this one together. I hate that smug fatcat prat with a white-hot loathing, but I had to immerse myself in a sticky, oily shitstew of his spew just to get the ammunition to take him out in one neat 20-minutes-and-change hit. IN HIS OWN WORDS, you'll hear him scoring his "country heroin" from Dr. Bruce Dern and licking toads to get high as he fucks a homeless woman in a dumpster. And in the middle of it is a sequence that I DIDN'T edit, a gloriously ironic piece of history where he states just exactly what he thinks should be done with drug addicts because they're destroying the country with their loathsome habits. Ha, I guess that just doesn't apply to HIM.
Because Rushy-Boy didn't rate the 17-hour Recombinant Comedy⢠treatment I gave George W. Bush, I had some time to fill--and that's where the drunk-off-his-ass John Wayne comes in, along with a studio tape of the Beach Boys trying to record "Help Me Rhonda" while their tyrannical dad Murry Wilson busts their balls in front of their friends. Parts of this tape were murky, but I enhanced the background remarks so you can hear it when Brian complains, "I have one good ear, and you're hurting it!"--which is supremely creepy when you consider that it was his own father who ruptured his eardrum during a brutal childhood beating. The other damning studio tape is the notorious Troggs session where the band is caught in an escalating, bitchy, histrionic rolling trainwreck over ONE SINGLE GODDAMNED NOTE. Then add the senile Colonel Sanders advertising "Kenfucky Tried Chicken," cartoon voice immortals Don Messick and June Foray getting sexy, Shatner and Zsa Zsa and Jack Palance getting pissy--and hell, I can't remember what else--and you've got a megabuttload of celebrity shame treading the stage in tonight's show.

June 8, 2013, 7:31 p.m.
The Green Grid Radio team sliced into a meaty topic this week: the broken American food production system, specifically focusing on meat. Today turkeys cannot naturally reproduce and must be artificially inseminated, 60 billion farm animals are annually killed for human consumption worldwide, and we consume eight times as much chicken as our American grandparents did eighty years ago. What else is going on in meat production?

Ted Charach is the first reporter to discover the forensics of the Robert F. Kennedy assassination that implied a second gun was used. Most reporters did not pay attention to autopsy data, but Ted did.

Long Term Unemployment A National Crisis
June 8, 2013, 5:21 p.m.
Long Term Unemployment A National Crisis
with
Christine Owens, Ex. Dir., National Employment Law Project
Another month and another tepid report on unemployment. The unemployment rate just went up to 7.6% with no prospect for a significant decline in sight. The plight of the long term unemployed who represent over 37% of the total is all but forgotten. Facing daunting odds in finding work, they are also being hit with federal unemployment benefit cuts, that states have been forced to implement due to sequestration and now qualify for fewer weeks of unemployment coverage than at any time since the beginning of the economic crisis.
***************
The Economic Elephant
with
Robert Reich, Prof. of Public Policy. UC Berkeley, and former Secretary of Labor
What's really wrong with the economy, and why?
Unemployment is still high and job creation hasn't made a big dent this many years into the so-called recovery. Who has the best plan? Is it the Keynesians? On the other end, the Austerics?
They both neglect the economic elephant in the room - spreading wealth to the wealthy keeps buying power away from the 99%; it simply does not lead to economic recovery.
#652 - Is Humanity In Its Right Mind?
June 8, 2013, 4:43 p.m.
This week, a remarkable set of ideas by an unknown speaker with a highly unusual credential (a sleep deprivation record of 11 days) whom I first came across only a few days ago. His ideas are such a close fit with many of the others we have heard on the show that I felt I had to share them with you. If they are even partly true, we all need to know about it.

This program interviews two different JFK assassination theorists.
The first, Lars C. Hansson, asserts that the driver of the President's limosine was also a shooter. The claim is that he turned and fired into Kennedy's head as he was cradled in the arms of Jacki.
Mike Marino is a reasearcher who discusses whether the Federal Reserve was causal in the killing. JFK had revoked the Fed contracts to print currency, and authorizing the US Treasury to print the notes.

Out of the Woods - Show #166 6-7-13
June 7, 2013, 9:54 p.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, 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
