More of the weird and wonderful this week as we hear a 50s pop group figuring out how to do rock & roll, an obscure R&B record from the equally obscure Bobby Mandolph, a Fillipino-African-American-Latin soul singer with an infectious dance number, a vocal harmony group doing a song with a bizarre spoken recitation that inspired Frank Zappa, plus newer vintage music from Alex Pangman, Little Rachel and a lot more.

This episode is “Celebrating the Revolutionary Contributions of Michael Parenti”, a webinar organized by the International Manifesto Group and Critical Theory Workshop. It took place on February 21, 2026. Michael Parenti, who passed away on January 24, 2026 at the age of 92, was a towering figure in Marxist scholarship and activism. Among the topics discussed were Parenti’s profound impact on the study of imperialism, war, propaganda, fascism, and the difficulties of socialist construction, as well as his unwavering commitment to the global class struggle. https://internationalmanifesto.org/ https://criticaltheoryworkshop.com/ Co-sponsored by United National AntiWar Coalition, Iskra Books, Manifesto Press, & Friends of Socialist China

Across the hills and valleys of the West Bank, life for Palestinians unfolds under a system of control that touches every hour of every day. Checkpoints carve the land into fragments. Settlements expand across hilltops once covered with olive trees. Roads are restricted, movement is monitored, and entire communities live with the constant uncertainty of raids, demolitions, and military presence. What should be ordinary going to work, tending a field, visiting family becomes a negotiation with a system designed to limit, contain, and exhaust. This is the daily reality for millions of Palestinians. A reality shaped not by conflict alone, but by policies that regulate land, identity, and even the simple act of belonging. And within this landscape, Palestinian Christians live the same struggle. They are not separate from their people; they are woven into the same fabric of dispossession and resilience. Yet their story is often distorted especially in Western narratives that claim they are fleeing because of their Muslim neighbors. The truth is far simpler, and far more painful: Palestinian Christians face the same occupation, the same land seizures, the same checkpoints, the same shrinking freedoms as every other Palestinian. Churches in Bethlehem, Beit Jala, Ramallah, and Jerusalem live under the same pressures as mosques. Christian families navigate the same military restrictions as Muslim families. Their youth confront the same future defined by walls, permits, and uncertainty. And when they speak when they say clearly that their struggle is political, not religious the world too often refuses to listen. But their voices matter. Their testimony matters. Because when Palestinian Christians describe how they are treated, it reveals a deeper truth: if this is the reality for a small, historic Christian community, one that has lived in the land since the time of Jesus, then what does that say about the treatment of the broader Palestinian population? Their experience exposes the myth that this is a religious conflict. It is not. It is a struggle over land, rights, and freedom one that affects every Palestinian, regardless of faith. And today, we bring that truth into focus. This is This Week in Palestine.

Tony Gosling conducts an Exclusive interview with Dr Chris Busby. Hassan Nasallah's body was found, following the blast that destroyed the building he was in, without external damage or signs of pressure wave rupture of internal organs. Reports are he was shielded by a substantial thickness of concrete, yet he was dead. Busby explains how neutrons can penetrate concrete and destroy destroy nerve cells when interacting with the atoms that they are comprised of. The radio active byproducts of a neutron bomb explosion are mostly short lived, however there are trace isotopes that survive, that on examination can reveal the nature of the blast and what radiation it would have produced. Busby explains. Busby has a back ground researching the effects of Depleted Uranium (DU) use by the U.S. Military. He has worked with Sr Rosalie Bertell and Major Doug Rokke, PhD following DU use in Iraq and Yugoslavia. He has found evidence by examining the technical air filters that monitor British nuclear production that indicates DU use in Ukraine. DU is a biological poison when dispersed as a nano ceramic dust following self ignition on impact.

Prof. Kevin Mackay discusses the sanctions and military action against Cuba, Venezuela, and Iran, and the common denominator linking them: U.S. imperialism. Economic strangulation precedes more 'kinetic' measures, such as U.S. and Israeli military intervention. We need to stand up for countries' right to self-determination, and not the global disorder promoted by the United States.

Welcome to the puppet show, people. Today we’re dragging Martin Van Buren — the “Little Magician,” Jackson’s favorite sidekick, and America’s first Dutch-talking president — into the spotlight. Was he pulling the strings, or just another marionette in Jackson’s circus? We’ve got Dutch tavern politics, Kinderhook drama, political machine chaos, and even a sad romance subplot. If that doesn’t make you click Subscribe, you might be more boring than Van Buren himself.

Andrew Jackson: He came, he saw, he evicted everyone. This week, we’re roasting Old Hickory for his actual legacy—evicting Native Americans at bayonet point, ghosting the Supreme Court, and calling it “benevolence” like he’s history’s worst PR intern. We’re spilling the messy receipts: the Battle of Horseshoe Bend, “treaties” signed by randos with zero authority, Florida invasions that Spain did not RSVP to, and the years-long Trail of Tears—because why ruin one year when you can ruin eight? Need a palate cleanser after this political crime spree? Watch Eric’s TED Talk on the Aunt Sally effect—aka, why knowing actual humans might keep you from being a historical villain: Eric Mason – The Aunt Sally Effect (TEDx) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VmOCPPPNUVg&t=263s

Today’s drama? Andrew Jackson—yes, him again—decides to leave office by nuking the economy on his way out like it’s a frat house party and the cops just pulled up. He kills the national bank, bans paper money for land (because chaos is his love language), and tosses federal funds to shady “pet banks.” Then he hands the smoking wreckage to Martin Van Buren—who stares at it like a golden retriever left alone with a dishwasher manual. Result? Bank runs, cotton crashes, and a depression so deep it makes 2008 look like a minor inconvenience. Oh, and 40% of the banks? Gone. Just… poof. In this episode, we ask the important questions: Was this financial collapse a policy decision or just Jackson being Jackson? Why did Van Buren show up to a five-alarm fire with a damp napkin? And did anyone actually learn anything from this? (Spoiler: eventually… maybe.) Also, shout out to the Bank of England for panic-raising rates and absolutely wrecking our vibes.

Democracy Not Found, Please reinstall Constitution Get ready to scream into a $20 bill, because this episode is a full-on historical meltdown starring Andrew Jackson—populist hero, professional grudge-holder, and economic arsonist. Kyle and Eric are back with The Buck Starts Here, the show that digs deep into the wildest moments of presidential history with no chill, no reverence, and no mercy. And hoo boy, Old Hickory gives us a lot to work with. This episode serves up: A White House party so rowdy they may have bribed people to leave with booze The Spoils System: hiring your drinking buddies and calling it reform Jackson’s ultimate petty flex—the Maysville Road veto (Clay, meet salt) The Indian Removal Act and the brutal forced migrations that followed How he wrecked the economy and proudly called it a “gift to future generations” And the kicker: how his policies laid the foundation for the Civil War Plus, yes, that time he beat an armed assassin with a cane at age 67. Iconic? Deranged? Both. This isn’t just presidential history—it’s a political reality show set in 1830s D.C., starring a man who saw checks and balances and said, “Nah, I’ve got this.” And somehow? He still got re-elected. Make it make sense.

He called himself the "people’s president," but let’s be honest—Andrew Jackson was more like that one friend who flips the Monopoly board, drinks all your whiskey, and still insists he’s “just keeping it real.” Kyle and Eric are back with the second part of this wild ride through Jackson’s presidency—aka the origin story of American chaos, executive ego, and bare-knuckle politics. Party in the White House? Hell yeah. Constitutional guardrails? Eh, optional. Checks and balances? Cute idea. What’s inside this hot mess of history: Populism with a vengeance—Jackson didn’t speak for the people, he roared for them How the “outsider” candidate rode rage and rural vibes all the way to the White House When "will of the people" turns into "my way or GTFO" And the birth of political branding—Jackson edition: strong opinions, weaker morals This wasn’t leading the people—it was fueling them, lighting a populist fire that still burns today.

We thought we were here to cancel Andrew Jackson. Instead… we kinda wanted to buy him a drink and ask how the hell he survived. Before he was wrecking political norms and starting wars on a Tuesday, Jackson was just a dirt-poor, slash-faced, vengeance-fueled teenager out in the Carolina backwoods with nothing but bad vibes and Revolutionary trauma. Orphaned by 14, dueling by 20, and casually writing state constitutions by 29—this guy didn’t pull himself up by his bootstraps, he drop-kicked his way to the top. Kyle and Eric unpack how a kid with zero privilege and 100% spite became a war hero, courtroom thug, emotional landmine, and the human embodiment of “try me.” Is he a walking red flag? Absolutely. Are we kinda impressed anyway? ...Also yes.

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.
