Contradictions tell the story, with songs, skits, and clips from political news shows and late-night comedy routines. The definition of "radio theatre" is stretched here, with an updated Dickie Goodman and/or Richard Foreman-meets-mashup style sometimes, and a more straightforward take other weeks. Currently airing on 30 or 40 stations around the world, the network has ordered another 11 months of episodes. Anyone who would like to work on a production, or have their work air in this timeslot, should contact info@wgxc.org.

Nicols Fox - "Watch What You Eat"

Spoiled: The Dangerous Truth About a Food Chain That Has Gone Wild In this Halloween, 1997, edition of Radio Curious, I spoke with Nicols Fox, the journalist who has written a terribly scary book called “Spoiled: The Dangerous Truth About a Food Chain That Has Gone Wild.” It’s truly disgusting; all those little microbes that will make you retch and die. The food you prepare at home can poison you; when you eat at a restaurant, the food they serve you can make you retch. Nicols Fox recommends “Water,” by Alice Atwater. Originally Broadcast: October 31, 1997

Protecting the Rights of Wikileaks founder Julian Assange

After four days of intense deliberations between Wiki Leaks founder Julian Assange’s legal team and attorneys representing the United States government at the end of February 2020 the British judge suspended the extradition hearings until mid-May. The Trump administration decided to charge Julian Assange under the Espionage Act for his role in publishing classified documents exposing U.S. war crimes in Iraq and Afghanistan. He could be sentenced to up to 175 years in prison. In contrast the Obama administration had decided not to charge under the Espionage Act in order to protect media such as the New York Times who published the very same materials that Assange had made public. Assange has been held in London’s high security Belmarsh prison since April 2019, when he was removed from the Ecuadorian embassy by British police. Assange was a resident of the embassy for seven years after entering it in June 2012 to claim diplomatic asylum. He was wanted by Swedish authorities for questioning over sexual offenses. Charges that now appear to have been fabricated In this program by TUC radio we look at the media response from Going Underground to Democracy Now, with the reports from UN Special Rapporteur on Torture Nils Melzer, Sevim Dagdelen, a member of the German Bundestag and Assange’s attorney, Jennifer Robinson.

Imperialism losing its grip in Syria, Afghanistan, Libya

Zafar Bangash covers three conflict zones in his interview. On Syria, Bangash analyses the military confrontation between Turkish, Syrian, and Russian forces as an unequal contest for two reasons. First, while Turkey has an abundance of troops and equipment, its inexperienced army faces a battle-hardened Syrian Arab Army, backed by Russian air power. Second, Turkey and its terrorist proxies in Syria lack a legal claim to be in Syria, while Syria (and its Russian ally) is exerting its sovereign right and duty to liberate its territory from foreign invaders. Bangash also points out that Erdogan has weaponized the 3.6 million refugees resident in Turkey by threatening to release them into Europe, unless the EU comes to his aid. Zafar then turns to Afghanistan, which he says has the reputation of being "the graveyard of empires." The US empire is no exception, he says, because after 18 years, it has lost control of the country and is suing for peace with the barefoot Taliban fighters. It's unlikely that the US withdrawal will be swift, however. The terms of the agreement provide for a protracted US troop withdrawal. Moreover, the Afghan president refused to release 5000 Taliban prisoners, whose release was a precondition for further talks. In Libya, which was turned into a failed state by NATO military intervention in 2011, Bangash notes that Turkey has dispatched 7000 of its terrorist proxy fighters from Syria to Libya on the side of General Haftar, an incompetent officer who has repeatedly failed to take Tripoli, the seat of the internationally-recognized government, despite being generously supplied by mercenaries via several countries.

Driven To Tears: Stefanie Lemcke + Jim Parry

Do you ever find yourself sitting stuck in traffic with your thoughts moving from benign irritation with the sheer number of cars on the road, to a fixation upon humanity's encroaching doom? If you do, then this week’s episode of Sea Change Radio is right up your alley (or freeway, or creaky bridge). First, we talk to Stefanie Lemcke, the founder of a carpooling app for families who are sick of carting their children all over town in a not-so-environmentally friendly manner, and want a convenient way to connect with other riders and drivers. Then, we indulge those of you who tend toward catastrophic thinking by speaking with Jim Parry, a former ad executive who's now an author (and cynic). He has put together a very informative, and sometimes darkly humorous, compendium of some of the biggest hurdles facing humankind today.

Wet'suwet'en Strong: A Revolution Grows in Canada

A revolution is growing in Canada. It began with the RCMP and Coastal Gas Link’s invasion of sovereign indigenous Wet’suwet’en territory in the province that goes by the colonial name of British Columbia, backed by snipers and armored vehicles. It began with the arrest of indigenous land defenders, matriarchs and hereditary chiefs. It began with the mass arrests of indigenous land defenders and their allies, who blockaded the port of Vancouver and closed down rail lines across the country in a show of solidarity with the Wet’suwet’en people and in staunch opposition to the settler-colonial state that is invading their lands and oppressing them in the name of extractive industry and fossil fuel expansion through pipelines built on stolen indigenous land. And the resistance movement continues to grow. Bridges, ports, railways, and the offices of prominent politicians and corporations have been occupied/shutdown. I want people to appreciate how radical this moment is.

ACLU Candidates Forum: Cook County States Attorney Race

In what all three candidates agreed was the most substantial forum to date in the primary election for the office of Cook County States Attorney, candidates answered a series of long form questions and then were asked to answer Yes or No to several others. Following the introduction of the moderators, Ed Yahnka and Peter Hana, the candidates give short opening statements and then at conclusion, closing statements as well. The range of questions provided candidates the opportunity to address the complexity of the legal system, the historically racist manor in Chicago and Cook County in which it has been applied and the current movement to reverse what all seemed to agree have been the disastrous human and social consequences for people caught in its machinery. The current States Attorney speaks to the changes she has introduced that lead the nation in a movement to return the concept of justice to the legal system. The significance of taking decisions based on data instead of myth or antidote is addressed along with other complex social issues like addiction, mental health, eliminating cash bail for minor offenses, ending the policy of prosecutors over charging to force a guilty plea and the role her office has played in protecting undocumented immigrants with minor convictions form the racist policies of the Trump administration.
