DO NOT MISS THIS WEEK’S SHOW! Sometimes I blow my own mind and this one is a frigging masterpiece! This is a rerun of a pre-election show we aired in 2016 and I have yet to hear anyone else better encapsulate the absurdist reality into which our election cycle has descended. And now, four years later, the style is new but the play is pretty much exactly the same. This week the Thunderbolt waxes nostalgic and takes a look at some of the major political candidates from back in the day — and manages to do so without vomiting! Listen with due care…

The governments of most countries in the world send an ambassador to other countries to talk about and promote what their country is like and carry on political affairs between the two countries. These ambassadors often have assistants that are called “cultural attaches”. They present the culture, the folklore and the history from the country where they’re from and the country where they are. In this program from the archives of Radio Curious, recorded in 1997, we visit with Gregorio Luke, who then was the counsel for cultural affairs for Mexico. He spent 8 ½ years in Washington DC, and at the time this program was recorded he had been working at the Mexican Consulate in Los Angeles for eighteen months. Gregorio Luke recommends “The Letters of Vincent Van Gogh,” by Vincent Van Gogh. Originally Broadcast: November 7, 1997

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 two 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.

Radio Thrift Shop is DJ Frederick's decade long (and counting) experiment, having evolved from Seldom Heard Radio in 2011. Radio Thrift Shop has a flexible format & an homage to the "underground" era of broadcasts of the 1960's and 1970's that DJ Frederick grew up listening to & features a homegrown mix of vinyl records, 78s, 45's, LPs, private press releases, and a variety of cassette tapes and homemade / self released cassettes & cds. Each broadcast of Radio Thrift Shop features an improvised or thematic playlist from DJ Frederick's music library. It's never the same program twice. Or even once.

Back in 2017, Trudeau attended a trade summit with China, with high expectations. It coincided with Trump's new trade war with China, and Trudeau quietly emerged empty-handed. Nobody has asked any questions about what happened there. Starting from a situation of beneficial trade with China, Canada ended up arresting the CFO of Huawei. The early news reporting on Meng Wanzhou's arrest in Canada actually brooked some dissenting opinions. Some interviewees asked whether Canada is a vassal of the United States. Their heads have not been seen on TV since. The media has instead adopted the narrative that Canada is being bullied by China. But China did nothing to us, and it was Trump who forced Canada to knock down a pillar of our trade. Phil then addresses the issue of the "Two Michaels," one of whom was a "former diplomat" tasked with gathering information for the Canadian government on China. China keeps lists like every other country; the US & UK & Canada have detained plenty of people they deem foreign suspects, when the only problem is actually bad relations with a country. A diplomatic solution is available. China has been subjected to a campaign of abuse from Western elites. At Davos, George Soros, one of the patrons of the International Crisis Group, said that Xi Jinping was the most dangerous leader in the world. And Canada's Bob Rae wants in on the action. He's gearing up for another round of excoriating China at the UN. Canadians should look at our own appalling treatment of First Nations peoples before criticizing other countries. And someone in Parliament should ask if it's worth harming our own economic relations in order to score points against China on behalf of President Trump.

In the preceding TUC Radio program Dr. Christine Jones was first introduced. Here is the self-contained conclusion of her presentation to Fibershed. She is an internationally known ground-cover and soils ecologist. She works with landholders to increase biodiversity and biological activity. They sequester carbon, activate soil nutrient cycles, restore water balance, improve productivity and create new topsoil. Gabe Brown first started working alongside his father-in-law on the family farm in North Dakota. When a series of crop disasters put Brown and his wife, Shelly, in desperate financial straits, they started - from 1993 on - experimenting with a new type of farming: regenerative agriculture. Gabe Brown is now a pioneer of the soil-health movement and has been named one of the twenty-five most influential agricultural leaders in the United States. CREDITS: Thanks to Fibershed for the use of their podcast. Fibershed is based in San Geronimo in West Marin, California. They connect fiber producers, mainly sheep ranchers and those who are collecting and growing plants for natural dyes with those who spin and weave textiles. Their workshop with Dr. Christine Jones took place on June 20, 2019. The excerpts of a conversation with the regenerative farmer and Chelsea Green author Gabe Brown come from an interview by Kelly Brownell, Professor of Public Policy at Duke University in North Carolina. They spoke on January 9, 2020 about the “Desperate Need for Regenerative Agriculture”. The book by Gabe Brown is entitled Dirt to Soil, One Family’s Journey into Regenerative Agriculture.

This week on Sea Change Radio, we hear host Alex Wise's thoughts on the 2020 election as we enter the final week of the campaign. Then, we speak to Ian Urbina, a longtime investigative reporter for the New York Times whose latest book The Outlaw Ocean reveals many of the hidden costs of the seafood and shipping industries. After listening to Urbina discuss his book that took five years to research and led him around the globe through some of the deadliest waters on earth, it’ll make you realize that the reason something is impossibly cheap is because far too often it involves impossible human suffering.
