TBR 200228 — Cold Steel Arms 2X

This week’s radio show starts right off by suggesting that listeners go f*@# themselves. The Toothless Old Grandpa tells us of perfidy in Honduras, we further explore the use of ‘false flag attacks’, and the feature piece this week is about aspects of our foster care system that are not common knowledge — but damned well should be. This week’s show is truly shocking — but then what would you expect from a Thunderbolt?

Gospel icon Kizito Mihigo dies in Rwandan prison

Kizito was a devout Christian and world-recognized composer/singer. He ran afoul of the Rwandan leadership when he composed and performed a song calling for true reconciliation, recognizing the suffering of all the country's ethnic groups. He was imprisoned, and authorities tried to force him to accuse others. Recently, he wished to leave the country. He was taken again into custody, where he died a "suicide," say the police (without troubling with an autopsy or investigation). There is widespread anger, and observers note that the population is shedding its fear.

Sonic Cafe #176/Twilight Zone Classic: Living Doll

Sonic Café, hey welcome, thanks for dropping by the café. I’m Scott Clark and this is episode 176. This time the Sonic Café presents another Twilight Zone Classic, Living Doll which aired originally in November 1963. One of the more famous Twilight Zone episodes, it’s seen parodies including the Simpson’s and Toy Story 4. It’s the story of the day Talky Tina joined the dysfunctional Streator family, mother Annabelle, her daughter Christie and stepfather Eric… apparently Eric is infertile and bitter, he directs his hostility toward his whole family. Well, since this is the Twilight Zone, we quickly discover that Talky Tina is not only aware, buy also evil… and she’s not having any of Daddy’s BS. So ahhh yeah. We’ve wrapped our story in a music mix including Devo, Florence & The Machine, Locust, a quirky instrumental from Frank Zappa and more. Plus the Sonic Café brings you an exclusive interview with the late, great, voice actress June Foray. June shares how she came to be the voice of Talky Tina. And finally, listen closely to the soundtrack of this Twilight Zone classic and you’ll hear it’s mostly bass clarinet… which we feel once again proves our theory that our world today would be much better off if it included more bass clarinet. So ahh join us as we present Living Doll in another Twilight Zone classic from that little café overlooking the awesome, blue Pacific… we’re the Sonic Café.

Stop the Extradition of Julian Assange

On February 24, 2020, Wikileaks founder Julian Assange's extradition hearing opened in a London court. The US government had said he is guilty of hacking into and publishing US military databases. The Trump administration raised the stakes significantly. They want to put him on trial under the espionage act, threatening Assange with 175 years in prison. Jennifer Robinson is a member of Julian Assange’s legal team. She spoke on February 4, 2020, at a public rally for Assange at the Royal National Hotel in London. Tariq Ali is a well know British author, film-maker, historian, political activist and editor who came to support Julian Assange.

Steve Almond: How To Take Back the White House in 2020

What can all the money in the world buy you? Thanks to the Beatles, we already know it’s not love, but could it perhaps buy you the most powerful office in the world? We may have an answer to this question as early as Super Tuesday, as one of the wealthiest humans on the planet attempts to buy the US presidency. This week on Sea Change Radio, we talk to author Steve Almond about the state of the Democratic primary. He offers his perspective on what we should be learning from Mike Bloomberg’s political ads that presently blanket our nation’s air waves, how the age of Trump changes the way that people view the field of presidential hopefuls, and what Democrats need to do if the nominee ends up being someone other than their favorite.

Syria's military campaign against Idlib terrorists should be praised

Phil interviews Stephen Gowans about his recent article, which is entitled "We should applaud the Syrian military’s actions in Idlib, not deplore them." Gowans turns on its ear the US / UN and MSM critique of the Syrian campaign to liberate the province of Idlib, which Brett McGurk has described as "the largest safe haven for Al Qaeda in the world." Rather than being critical of the Syrian government for dislodging Al Qaeda terrorists from its own territory, especially as they were maintaining an oppressive occupation on behalf of Turkey, Saudi Arabia and the USA, Gowans argues the world should laud Syria for protecting its own citizens and borders from foreign aggression, and driving out internationally-condemned terrorist organizations. This military campaign by Syria would not have been necessary if Turkey had lived up to its comittments in the Sochi Agreement to remove terrorists from the Idlib DeEscalation Zone. In addition, Phil notes that the Syrian Arab Army has a quite different modus operandi in fighting the terrorists than does the USA. The US approach to liberating Raqqa, for instance, involved destroying 85% of the city and killing thousands of Syrian citizens in a country in which the USA didn't even have permission to operate. The SAA, on the other hand, selectively tries to target terrorists and their assets, and open protected corridors for civilians to escape the fighting. These corridors and the civilians who use them are routinely fired upon by the terrorists. According to Gowans, the SAA is undertaking the necessary task which benefits the whole world.

interviews Author/activist Arnold August

Latin Waves host Sylvia Richardson speaks with journalist Arnold August about Canada’s imperialist campaign to recognize Juan Guaidó, a man who self-declared himself president of Venezuela in February 2019. Canada’s involvement in the failed attempted coup to oust democratically elected president Nicolas Maduro, Canada’s involvement in the Lima group has discredited any pretense of Canada as a democratic influence in Latin America. He connects the struggle of Bolivia as the Indigenous leader Evo Morales was ousted in a military coup, in November 2019 and Canada was quick to express support for the post-coup leader Jeanine Áñez Chávez. While in Canada the Wet’suwet’en people face aggression from the Canadian government for defending their unceeded lands from being further scared with pipelines.
