Phil explains why we need to get our facts straight about the early success of industrial organizing involving the CIO and UAW. The new book by UNIFOR activist Tony Leah, "The Truth About The '37 Oshawa GM Strike" (Baraka Books) gets us back on track. The approach was class struggle and real international solidarity, a strategy now being taken up by a dedicated reform movement in the UAW.
Speaking of neglected facts, Phil T. touts another book, "Einstein on Israel and Zionism" by Fred Jerome (also Baraka Books). It reveals that the great scientist argued long and hard over the years against Zionist extremism, and the need for dialogue and cooperation with the anti-colonial movement of the Arab peoples. He even went to the lengths of personally seeking out close personal ties with Arab journalists and intellectuals. He condemned Menachem Begin for his violent conduct and fascism.

Digital, analog, long playing records, cassettes… How do they bring sound to our ears? In this edition of Radio Curious we visit with audio engineer and producer Gregg McVicar, one of the first independent radio producers to convert to digital audio technology.

Gregg McVicar holds an MA degree from the Annenberg School for Communication, is an Adjunct Professor at California College of the Arts in Oakland, California. On his visit to the studios of Radio Curious on August 11th, 2008 we began our conversation when I asked him to explain the difference between analog and digital.

The investigative journalist and acclaimed author, specializing in weapons and war, Annie Jacobsen, has come closer than other investigators to the razor edge of secrecy that surrounds the current nuclear war machine. Her book, Nuclear War, is based on hundreds of interviews with war planners and engineers - plus recently declassified documents.
Annie Jacobsen, reminds us that a Doomsday killing machine has been designed, capable of destroying not just two cities but life on this planet - first with fire and heat and then seven to ten years of darkness and ice sheets from nuclear winter.
Annie Jacobsen’s book, Nuclear War, A Scenario, has 373 pages of interviews and sources, but it covers only 72 minutes of real time. Beginning at zero hour with the launch of one rogue nuclear missile - in Jacobsen’s scenario from North Korea - that will hit the Pentagon only 38 minutes later and destroy all of Washington DC.
Here is the question and answer section of an interview by tech writer Quentin Hardy for the Commonwealth Club in San Francisco. Watch the full one hour video of this conversation on the YouTube channel of the Commonwealth Club. The title is Annie Jacobsen | Nuclear War

Death is a topic that most of us prefer not to think too much about. While we must all acknowledge its inevitability, on a day-to-day basis, it feels better to keep it up on a shelf in a box, out of reach from quotidian life. Then again, there are decisions to be made, and they really do need to be made in advance of those inexorable metamorphic events. This week on Sea Change Radio, we learn about the burgeoning green funeral industry from the CEO and Founder of Recompose, Katrina Spade. We look at the environmental problems associated with conventional burial and cremation, hear about the rather unusual modern history of embalming in the US, and go deep on the subject of human composting.
