Donald Drumpf Theatre Vol. 14 Goodbye, Farewell, Amen. The show is a make-believe listen to what might happen if a reality television star became the leader of the free world. The show features news clips and songs cut in a way similar to Dickie Goodman, with a Richard Foreman-meets-mashup style. Contributions are welcome to info@wgxc.org. It's a fake news show that's actually radio theatre, so the news is true.

Israel-Palestine Through the Lens of Settler-Colonialism (ONE of TWO) Professor Ilan Pappe
April 18, 2017, 9:47 p.m.
The program begins with a standard disclaimer: The views and opinions expressed in the following program are those of the speakers and do not necessarily reflect the opinions of this radio station, its staff or board of directors.
I placed the disclaimer because content critical of the Israel/Palestine peace process is frequently criticized. Please give it an airing because the ideas expressed may help explain a situation that has led to decades of pain and bloodshed in the Middle East. And Professor Ilan Pappe is an extraordinary intellectual and historian.
Here is background on him and the organizers:
Ilan Pappe was born in Haifa and educated in Israel. He was a senior lecturer in political science at the University of Haifa (1984â2007) and chaired the Emil Touma Institute for Palestinian and Israeli Studies. He received world attention as one of Israel's "New Historians" who, since the release of secret British and Israeli government documents in the early 1980s, have been re-writing the history of Israel's creation in 1948, and the corresponding expulsion of more than 700,000 Palestinians from their homes and villages that became known as the Nakba - the catastrophe.
Ilan Pappe left Israel in 2008, after Israel's minister of education called for him to be dismissed from the University of Haifa. He also received several death threats. Since then, he has been a professor of history with the College of Social sciences and International Studies at the University of Exeter in the United Kingdom.
He spoke on March 24, 2017, at the National Press Club in Washington, DC. He was introduced by Dale Sprusansky, the assistant editor of the Washington Report on Middle East Affairs.
Once a year - since 2014 - a conference on the Israel Lobby and American Policy has been held in Washington DC at the National Press Club. Sponsored by the Washington Report on Middle East Affairs and the Institute for Research: Middle Eastern Policy, it invites speakers of international importance. Among them in 2017 John Mearsheimer, co-author of the best selling book "The Israel Lobby" and Professor Ilan Pappe, author of "The Ethnic Cleansing of Palestine"- among many other books.
Since critical discussion of US support for Israel is a taboo topic the conference receives no attention from the mass media and very little by the alternative press. This led them to miss a compelling speech by Israeli historian Ilan Pappe. He explained how Israel became a settler colonial state, and that it now ranks among those that have instituted a system of Apartheid similar to that found in post World War II South Africa which was widely condemned by the world. Professor Ilan Pappe concluded that facts on the ground created by Israel with the expansion of settlements now make a two state solution impossible.
Grandin, Prof. Temple: What Autism Can Tell Us About Animals
April 18, 2017, 9:29 p.m.
In this episode of Radio Curious, we talk with Professor Temple Grandin about what animals think and how their thoughts might be understood.
Grandin, born in 1947, was diagnosed with autism at age 2, and did not begin to speak until she was 4 years old. She earned a master's degree and Ph.D. in animal science, and is now a professor of animal science at Colorado State University in Ft. Collins, Colorado.
In her book âAnimals in Translation,â Grandin explores the world of animals; their pain, fear, aggression, relationships and communication. She believes that autistic people at times think the way animals think, putting them in a strong position to translate âanimal talk.â Â
We spoke with Professor Grandin from her office in Ft. Collins, Colorado, in March 2006.

Invasion of the Lionfish Snatchers
April 18, 2017, 4:59 p.m.
Perhaps it's cold comfort but it turns out that we human beings are not the only species on earth hell-bent on destroying our own habitat. We share that ignominious honor with the venomous, carnivorous, and highly invasive lionfish. This week on Sea Change Radio, we talk about what these marine invaders are doing to the ocean's coral reefs, and what is being done to reduce the damage. Our guests today all are working in Bermuda, one of the regions of the world where these creatures are wreaking havoc on the coral reef. First we hear from Colin Angle, CEO of iRobot the company that makes the robotic vacuum-cleaner, Roomba, and his wife, biologist Erika Angle -- together they have devised a way to use vacuum robot technology to catch the intrusive but tasty lionfish. Then we're joined by Jeremy Pochman from Eleventh Hour Racing, who tells us about how his organization is leveraging the America's Cup, set to take place in Bermuda this June, to raise global awareness about the problem.
