The Body Project: An Intimate History of American Girls Advertising has had a major effect on how we view our bodies and on our individual self-image. The history of how this advertising has come to affect American girls as they pass through menarche and adolescence is presented in a book called “The Body Project: An Intimate History of American Girls.” This book describes the historical roots of acute societal and psychological pressures that girls feel today. It shows how the female adolescent experience has changed since 1895. The author, Joan Jacobs Brumberg, is a Professor of History and Women’s Studies at Cornell University in New York. In this two-part program, I spoke Professor Brumberg in October of 1997 and asked her what drew her to write “The Body Project.” Joan Jacobs Brumberg recommends “Learning to Bow,” by Bruce Feiler & “The Grass Link,” by May Vinchi. Originally Broadcast: October 21, 1997

We look at a dated yet fun children's album from the 50s by an artist known today for being the aunt of a well known actor. The honky tonks remind us of happy singalongs of yesteryear...and the celebrity slip up has a man that had a catchy catch phrase in the 80s. I pity the fool who doesn't figure that one out.

We'll hear a funky take on Beethoven by Joe Thomas, dig into some Clabber Biscuits with George Benson, and we'll hear both a Curtis Mayfield cover by The Dynamics and a Curtis original.

The Richie Allen Show Monday March 2nd 2026 by The Richie Allen Show https://www.podomatic.com/podcasts/richieallen/episodes/2026-03-02T11_14_16-08_00 EPISODE DESCRIPTION The US and Israel attacked Iran on Saturday, killing the country's Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei. The Israeli military launched fresh strikes on Tehran today. However, the US Defence secretary Pete Hegseth said this morning that there will not be "endless war." Elsewhere, in an interview with the Daily Telegraph, US President Donald Trump criticised UK Prime Minister Keir Starmer for not allowing the use of UK bases to support Saturday's attack. Where will all of this lead? To discuss it, Richie is joined by journalists Kevin Barrett and Tony Gosling. www.thisweek.org.uk www.kevinbarrett.substack.com

Oil is not the stated justification for the recent US-Israel joint attack on Iran. The ensuing war is, however, expected to cause major disruptions to the global oil and gas supply. Which brings us to our topic this week on Sea Change Radio: energy transitions. Today we are talking about pivots undertaken by some of the world’s largest economies - we are joined by Chris Nelder, an energy expert and the host of The Energy Transition Show podcast. We discuss the problems facing Japan and its growing energy needs 15 years after the Fukushima nuclear disaster, examine China’s impressive moves away from fossil fuel dependency, and talk about Germany’s nimble reinvention of its energy grid after Russia’s invasion of Ukraine.

Two nuclear states, the US and Israel, launch an illegal war of aggression against Iran, a sovereign state and UN member. And Canada ("practical and principled") applauds. Lawyer David Jacobs explains that international law has been replaced by law of the jungle, while pointing out that there are many states and important leaders who are denouncing the rogue behavior of the US and Israel.
