How well do we know the history of our nation? As for our Founders, what is fact? What is myth? While we have been told we are free, we face an increasing onslaught of laws, edicts, and proclamations governing our lives as American citizens. We have been told that âwe need to get our Constitution back.â Do we truly need to do that?
We are, during every election cycle, given a âchoice.â But is it a real choice? Or a Hobsonâs choice? Were our Founders the godlike, towering figures we were taught? Were they above reproach? Or were they human beings, subject to the same avarice, temptations and lust we all are?
What were their motivations in starting this country? Were they benign in nature, inspired to offer their fellow countrymen âlife, liberty and the pursuit of happiness?â Or were there other instincts at play?
Was the Constitution truly designed to be the bulwark of freedom? Why were the Articles of Confederation jettisoned? Who were the Anti-Federalists? Why did they get such short shrift by history? What was the worth of the Founders? Were they Everymen? Or rich elites?
The answers, when explored from an âunofficialâ vantage point, may surprise you.
Listen along as Eric the Blacksmith discusses American history with Al Aric and Theo. Current events are interspersed. Explore the nooks and crannies of suppressed information as the book âHologram of Libertyâ by Kenneth Royce is reviewed and its bibliography examined.

Student Debt Boycott - Organizing the Power of Economic Withdrawal
July 6, 2019, 10:19 a.m.

N.Y. States Farmworkers Prevail Over States Harvest of Shame

Finally N.Y. States Farmworkers Prevail Over States Harvest of Shame
with
Jessica Ramos, N.Y.S Senator, Chair of Labor Committee
and
Jose Chapa, Justice for Farmworkers Legislative Campaign Coordinator, Rural & Migrant Ministry
Well celebrate and the N.Y.S. Legislatures passage of progressive bills, with gains in such diverse areas as tenants rights, drivers licenses for undocumented immigrants and yes finally labor rights for N.Y. farmworkers. Advocates for farmworkers have been engaged in a decades-long fight for basic labor and human rights for farm workers since they were exempted from a 1938 federal labor reform law " relegating them to a habitual harvest of shame, and deprivation.
"Today we are correcting a historic injustice, a remnant of Jim Crow era laws, to affirm that those farmworkers must be granted rights just as any other worker in New York, said Sen. Jessica Ramos (D-Queens). Under the new Farmworker Fair Labor Practices Act farmworkers will now have the right to unionize and overtime pay as well as the guarantee of at least one day off per week. Under the new legislation, farmworkers are also eligible for unemployment insurance, paid family leave and workers compensation benefits.

Donald Drumpf Theatre Vol. 129 Drain The Swamp
July 4, 2019, 10:33 a.m.
An original radio theatre show each week, with most sounds culled from the previous week, about a fictional, theatrical presidency. 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 15 episodes, but there are threats of cancellation. Anyone who would like to work on a production, or have their work air in this timeslot, should contact info@wgxc.org.
Sonic Cafe #142/Twilight Zone Classic: The FEVER
July 4, 2019, 9:49 a.m.
Sonic Café. Welcome to episode 142, Iâm your host Scott Clark. You know everything about life is a gamble. With each new day yet another opportunity to take a chance, to maybe win big, or lose it all. This time the Sonic Café explores what can happen when you take a chance, and everything goes sideways, in another Twilight Zone Classic. We present The Fevor, which debuted in1960. Itâs the story of Franklin and Flora Gibbs, whoâve won a trip to Las Vegas. Now Franklin isnât at all happy in Vegas because he detests gambling, and even more, all those degenerates who gamble. But since this is the Twilight Zone, just by chance our high-minded Franklin gets coerced into putting just one dollar into a slot machine, and then pulling the handle of that one armed bandit, just once. After that, well Franklin gets the fever, and you know what they say, what happens in Vegas stays in Vegas. Weâve wrapped this story of compulsive behavior in a music mix that explores the idea of chance in a number of ways. Listen for Morphine, Joni Mitchell, Sarah Vaughan, Modest Mouse, Dan Fogelberg, Steve Winwood and of course more. All this time, from that little café on the coast that compulsively brings you a weekly dose of headphone friendly, intelligent, eclectic programming thatâs fun, weâre the Sonic Café.

America Has an Exceptional History of Wars and Fake News
July 3, 2019, 9:11 p.m.
The parameters of political discourse in the US, rigidly enforced, do not allow reality much space. Allegedly, it is a well-meaning empire that makes "mistakes" that are all traced to an innocent nature. Haiphong makes short work of this official narrative, and points to evidence that most Americans, after endless wars and reduced opportunities, are not buying the old stories. Maybe the jig is up.
