Riding the Blue Tsunami of 2026 was a new generation of progressive politicians, steeped in optimism, immune to cynicism, and representing some of the best things about this country. This week on Sea Change Radio, we speak to journalist and filmmaker Elliot Kirschner about his recent film entitled “The Work In Progress.” It is Kirschner’s second collaboration with former Secretary of Labor, Robert Reich, and it features face-to-face conversations across generational, political, and economic difference. We discuss the film, talk about the role the news media has played in sowing political division, and reflect on the midterm election results.

This week we’ll get a preview of groundbreaking Australian activist Peter De Waal’s collection of profiles in queer courage, “Hidden Lives, Silenced Stories.” In the news, US voters rebuke Republican policies in landslide mid-term elections and sweep more LGBTQ candidates into office than ever before. However, relevant state-level ballot initiatives have mixed results — but not as mixed as the results of Israel’s elections, where the “pinkwashing” ploy may be all that’s protecting LGBTQ rights. Meanwhile, Fijian theocrats threaten marriage equality and Beijing’s Queer Film Festival is abruptly canceled.
This week's program is about all the latest tunes submitted or made available to the station including songs from the new albums and singles from Daniel Crabtree, Carson Peters and Iron Mountain, Celebrating 80 Years of The Stanley Brothers, Red Camel Collective, Wyatt Ellis and many more.

Is the system collapsing - and would that be a good thing? We go back to my 2019 chat with radio broadcaster and educator Eddie Yuen: "Can we count on catastrophe?"
