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 10 episodes, but with impeachment cancellation is possible at any moment. Anyone who would like to work on a production, or have their work air in this timeslot, should contact info@wgxc.org.

Grace Carpenter Hudson was known as the painter-lady in her hometown of Ukiah, CA. She started her career as a painter when she was a teenager in the 1870s. By the time of her death in 1937, she had produced over 600 canvas paintings and numerous other works. Her skills focused almost exclusively on the lives and cultures of the Pomo Indians who lived in Mendocino County. Her husband, Dr. John Hudson, assisted her by making the study of native culture his life’s work, overshadowing his profession as a physician. Grace Carpenter Hudson was a shrewd businesswoman, as well as an artist of increasing renown. Most of the family income came from the sale of her artwork. I spoke with Grace Carpenter Hudson in the person of actress Laura Ferri at the Grace Carpenter Hudson museum in Ukiah, CA, during an exhibition of her work. Grace Carpenter Hudson recommends “The Age of Innocence,” by Edith Morton. Laura Ferri recommends “Stones from the River,” by Ursula Hegi. Originally Broadcast: March 5, 1997

The Assembly of Silence is a freewheeling talk show orbiting around spiritual and philosophical concerns - with an occasional garnish of science, utilitarian and quasi-objective pragmatism, dreamy and gleeful idealism, health tips and absurdity.

In recent research for TUC programs on climate change, the school strike movement and extinction rebellion ideas around collapse have been coming up. They may be expressed by scientists or novelists and include familiar names such as James Howard Kunstler and John Michael Greer. One person stands out - Dmitry Orlov and this is a conversation with him that was conducted by James on his Hermitix podcast on August 31, 2019. Dmitry Orlov is a Russian-American engineer and writer on subjects related to "potential economic, ecological and political decline and collapse in the United States," something he has called “permanent crisis”. When Orlov’s book: - Everything is Going According to Plan - was published in 2017 he wrote: A little over 21 years ago I determined for myself how this story is going to end, but kept my mouth shut. Then, around 2000 , I sensed a change in the wind and wrote the article “Post-Soviet Lessons for a Post-American Century” which launched my writing career. Since then I have published several books and hundreds of essays, but I stand by everything I have written since the very beginning. Everything is going according to plan. I don’t know whose plan it is, and I think that it’s a really stupid plan, but everything is going according to it anyway. I hope that knowing what the plan is will save you and those around you from a great deal of senseless aggravation. Dmitry Orlov continues to write almost weekly on his “Club Orlov” blog

For many, along with all that good cheer, the holidays bring a bunch of food-related conundrums: what to bring to the pot luck, what to eat and not eat at the company party, what gifts to buy for our culinary-focused friends and family, and how to be ecologically responsible without compromising taste. This week on Sea Change Radio, we speak with a food expert who can help solve these holiday food puzzlers. Gigi Berardi is a professor of food studies and geography at Western Washington University. Her new book, FoodWISE lays out ways to make better decisions about what we eat. We discuss the differences between frozen and canned foods, take a look at "Big Organic," and examine how the food industry's misuse of the word "healthy" has warped its meaning.

Phil Taylor and Steven Sahiounie discuss a recent interview between an Italian news agency, and Syrian President Assad. The Italian agency delayed airing the interview until it was finally axed. And it was fully obvious why. President Assad said, in the banned interview, that the European Union had been behind the proxy war on Syria from the beginning, and were therefore responsible for the wave of refugees that have swept over Europe. Sharmine Narwani reports that Twitter took down President Assad's account. Phil says that Western states, who describe Assad as a "brutal dictator" show their own lack of democracy by trying to suppress the interview. Sahiounie replies that the war on Syria is not just a military struggle - it's also a media war. Phil also asks Sahiounie about Uighurs ("East Turkistan" separatists) in Syria. Sahiounie confirms that some 15-20,000 Uighur fighters have been brought to Syria as proxies for Turkey in the attempted regime change operation in Syria. Phil points out that there is an organization recognized by the UN as terrorist that is waging an insurgency in Western China. Sahiounie says that the Uighurs in Syria are part of the same group.
