BSTF 943 - Rev. Susie's "Slagheap of Santas!" Show
Dec. 23, 2012, 9:38 p.m.
This episode has hot and cold Santas out the ass--while there ain't no sanity clause, there are way too many Kris Kringles running around! This is a song-heavy production with music by the Vandals, who HAD to get a frickin' GUN for Christmas (Thanks, MOM!); Archers of Loaf with "Assassination on Christmas Eve"; Bobby Lloyd and the Skeletons, who weave an inspired "Little Drummer Boy" into "You Really Got Me"!; an assortment of raunchy R&B Santa-themed songs; Ed Sanders' wonderful "ABM Machine" Melvin Laird song; Cheech and Chong provide commentary and addled history to the Santa mythos; and it's all capped off with "Talk to Me Santa"--a rocking-ass live song by El Vez, which dives into a Velvet trajectory that takes it straight Underground, if you catch my drift! Using my signature gutpunch Recombinant Comedy⢠technique, I interweave diverse soundbites together into a sprawling narrative that reflects the hideous holiday world we find ourselves trapped in--a twisted vision of candy canes and body bags, of silver bells and hollowpoint bullets. And in the midst of it, some poor schmoe is gonna get set up to impersonate the *capo tutti capi* of the North Pole Claus empire. It's a good gig, if you can survive it.

Fukushima: the Never Ending Story
Dec. 23, 2012, 12:08 a.m.
Akiko speaks about the continuing fight between the Japanese people and their government which has placed the financial interests of the nuclear power industry in Japan ahead of their well being and that of the health of their children. Arbitrary decisions have been made that allow children to be exposed to 20 times the pre-disaster radiation limits in order to lower the cost of evacuation and decontamination. She translates the sound track of a short documentary about the arbitrary "decontamination" policy that has divided families, ended marriages and left parents fearing for the future health of their children. One grass roots program has started based on lessons learned from Chernobyl; it brings children from contaminated zones to an uncontaminated resort where they can play outside and shed some of the contamination that they have absorbed.
As of December 1st, 2012 tens of thousands of Japanese are still internal refugees, some whose former homes and communities are contaminated to a level that they will be, for them, forever off limits.
In the Q&A she confirms that the Japanese government, over the opposition of scientists and it citizens, has begun incinerating radioactive debris from the tsunami, spreading radioactive particles through out Japan as a political solution to their national nightmare.
Akiko's story is unfortunately a harbinger of what we can expect in the Unites States when the next nuclear catastrophe occurs here. For it is the U.S. government, and the nuclear power/weapons industry dominated NRC, that is pressuring the Japanese government to down play the consequences and return to business as usual while burdening the public with the costs.

Preventing The 99% From Being Thrown Over The Austerity Cliff In the Fiscal Showdown
with
Robert Borosage, Co-Dir., Campaign for America's Future
With politicians demanding cuts in public benefits Robert Borosage counsels against buying into the "fiscal cliff" fraud. Borosage says, the problem is not deficits; it is "the lack of a foundation for
sustainable growth that includes working people. Without a political movement to achieve the latter, very little progress will be made on the former." We must counter the spin and show how we can turn the conversation about debt and deficits to what really matters: putting
people back to work, protecting the economically vulnerable and ending giveaways to the wealthy

Last week we reflected on whether people's penchant for doomsday predictions and tales of the living dead was connected to their common experience of life under capitalism. This week, given the absence of an apocalyptic Mayan doomsday event, we ask whether a conscious effort to reject such catastrophism is in order, and what a progressive future might look like.

Phil interviews Gary Engler about his novel, "The Year We Became Us," a book that merges the Cuban 'missile crisis' with the story of Canadian health care.
1962 was a pivotal for Canada. Most people don't know about the doctors strike, which could have prevented the emergence of socialized medicine.
A Koch-style U.S. campaign outspent medicare proponents 2-1. It was only the mobilization of unions, community groups, and church organizations that allowed this definitive Canadian institution to exist.
