Our hosts finally get to broadcast from the beach this summer, and pick a cheesy beach movie of the past to profile in between hiding from the sun, some Barq Rock of the Beatles Kind, and a 70s lounge lizard with a lizardy tune appears in the Limburger Lounge.

On June 18, 2024, the Australian opposition leader, with his shadow cabinet, dropped the bombshell of making the upcoming elections in Australia a referendum on returning to nuclear power plant construction. One day later ABC News Australia broadcast an interview with David Speers. They call this a decision between renewable energy and nuclear. Only three days later, On June 22, 2024, the Australian antinuclear campaigner Helen Caldicott joined the debate with a line of reasoning that nobody had yet mentioned: Safety. Helen Caldicott is best known for having founded several associations dedicated to opposing the use of nuclear power, depleted uranium munitions, and nuclear weapons. In the 1970s, she gained prominence in Australia, New Zealand and North America, speaking on the health hazards of radiation. After the Fukushima Daiichi explosions in Japan, that began on March 11, 2011, she began a several year long campaign calling out the dangers of nuclear power plants. On June 22, 2024, Helen Caldicott sent an e-mail to friends and organizations, quoting from the introduction to her book: Crisis Without End. It’s a collection of talks by leading experts from Japan, the United States, Russia, and other nations on radiation-related health risks in Japan, impacts on the world’s oceans, the question of low-dosage radiation risks, crucial comparisons with Chernobyl, health and environmental impacts, and the unavoidable implications for the nuclear energy industry. However now it seems as if the safety risks of nuclear power are forgotten or being pushed aside in the global efforts to bring back nuclear power stations. Come back when TUC radio returns for excerpts from the two-day symposium at the NY Academy of Medicine on March 11 and 12, 2013, titled The Medical and Ecological Consequences of Fukushima. The excerpts are from the Archives of TUC Radio. DATE: June 2024

In the first half of today’s show, we discuss the many Black conservatives that help shape the identity of the right, far right, and MAGA movements in this country. We explain how their input provides cover for White supremacist values and ideals, as well as provide a degree of deniability for folks who are hard-pressed to challenge their own biases and racist beliefs. We also discuss what incentivizes Black conservatives beyond simply espousing “traditional values.” In the second part of the show, we discuss an online pamphlet that has gone viral entitled “Things You N***** Should Know Before You Vote” which is a great starting point for challenging a good amount of the disinformation that is circulating online and in political conversations across the country. Our Way Black History Fact highlights the events leading up to the Watts Riots of 1965.

As kids, many of us read “Fahrenheit 451” by Ray Bradbury and thought, "man, this book banning and burning stuff is terrible." Apparently, though, not everyone felt the same. This week on Sea Change Radio, we speak to filmmaker Arthur Bradford about his most recent documentary for MSNBC Films entitled "To Be Destroyed," which takes viewers inside efforts to ban books from a public high school in Rapid City, South Dakota. The film follows author and literacy advocate Dave Eggers, as he travels to the school district where his novel, "The Circle," was pulled from shelves along with four other titles. Bradford tells us about why this topic felt so important to him, gives us a glimpse behind the making of the film, and discusses how the documentary reveals some larger truths about right-wing crusaders in this country.

In the second installment of a three part series, I sit down with Brendan Campisi (formerly of The Alberta Advantage podcast) to discuss the formation of the working class in Palestine, the rise of Palestinian trade unions, and proletarian resistance to British colonialism and Zionist settler-colonialism from 1900 to the present day. This episode will focus on the Nakba and the early years of resistance to Israeli Apartheid.

This week’s Roundtable features a deep dive into the concepts explored in Baba Yaga’s recent YouTube video, Personal Awareness as a Statistical Edge. We start off with Posture and how intently we are focusing as leading indicator of reckless behaviour before looking at emotional awareness and emotional deficits. Baba then stresses the importance of self-awareness and recognizing one's mental and emotional state before trading. He emphasizes the need to understand personal vulnerabilities and strengths, and how they can impact trading decisions. Overall, the conversation emphasizes the need for traders to be aware of their thoughts, emotions, and biases, and to make informed decisions based on their trading strategies and analysis.

Esteemed trader and former guest alum Chris Dover joins Kyle and Perdue to discuss the use of language learning models (LLMs) in trading and other applications. LLMs are large language models that consume massive amounts of data to learn patterns and predict the next action. They can be used to answer queries, provide recommendations, and even build strategies. The conversation explores the limitations and potential of LLMs, as well as the future of AI in trading and everyday life. Chris explains various topics related to machine learning, AI, and algorithmic trading. The hosts discuss the use of TensorFlow and CUDA programming software, the accessibility of machine learning algorithms through tools like Chat GPT and Google CoLab, and the importance of understanding market types and using simple systems. They also touch on the challenges of using LMMs and the impact of technology on various industries. They wrap up by speculating on the potential impact of AI on the global economy and the need for alternative energy sources while discussing the role of AI in solving complex problems and the importance of leveraging its capabilities.
