This week's show features down-home blues courtesy of Dr. Ross, smooth harmony delivered by the Golden Gate Quartet, a sentimental ballad by the Mills Brothers, plus lively gospel, honky-tonk country and a "British Invasion" star who was bigger than the Beatles, for a while, at least.

Today’s episode is not just a broadcast. It’s a reckoning. It’s a memorial. It’s a refusal to forget. We begin with the names of journalists—those who stood between the world and the abyss, armed only with cameras, microphones, and the audacity to document genocide. Saleh Aljafarawi. Mohammad Al-Salhi. Ibrahim Lafi. Saeed Al-Taweel. Salam Mema. Roshdi Sarraj. Samer Abudaqa. Mohammed Qreiqeh. Ismail Alghool. And the living witness: Wael Al-Dahdouh. Each of them carried more than press credentials. They carried the weight of a nation’s memory. They filmed through tears, broadcast through rubble, and wrote through grief. They were not collateral damage. They were targeted. Because truth in Gaza is dangerous. And those who tell it are hunted. Their stories are not just tragic. They are sacred. But this episode is not only about journalists. It’s about every Palestinian who has been martyred under occupation. Doctors who died treating the wounded. Teachers who taught under drones. Mothers who whispered prayers in the rubble. Children who never got to grow old. It’s about the land that mourns them. The sky that cries them. The sun that rises with their names. It’s about the lie of “moral warfare.” The myth of “precision.” The silence of the world. And it’s about the truth we carry forward—unapologetically, urgently, and with love. You’ll hear a reflection today. A personal reckoning. A meditation on grief, belonging, and resistance. It’s not polished. It’s not detached. It’s not polite. It’s raw. It’s rooted. It’s Palestinian. Because when the world forgets, we remember. When the world turns away, we speak. And when the world asks, “Why do you still resist?”—we answer: Because we never left. Because we belong. Because it’s called Palestine.

When the polar ice caps melt, sea level will rise. That’s happened earlier in the history of the world, and it appears it will happen again. In this edition of Radio Curious, we bring you a two part series on global warming and sea level rise, with Peter D. Ward, a paleontologist and professor of biology and earth and space sciences at the University of Washington in Seattle. He is the author of “The Flooded Earth: Our Future in a World Without Ice Caps,” in which he describes expected conditions in 2050, 2300 and 2500. This series with Professor Peter D. Ward, was recorded on August 2, 2010, from his office in Seattle, Washington. In part 1, Ward begins with a description of what will happen when the level of the sea rises. In part 2, we begin with a discussion of why, in the face of rather clear evidence, there continues to be a denial of global warming. The books Peter Ward recommends are, “An Inconvenient Truth,” by Al Gore and “Weather Makers,” and any other book by Tim Flannery.

Is America’s love affair with billionaires actually an abusive relationship? This week on Sea Change Radio, we speak to author Chuck Collins whose new book, Burned By Billionaires, helps us better understand why having so many ultra-wealthy individuals in this country has a deleterious effect on society. We discuss what Collins calls the idolatry of wealth, look at examples of billionaires harming the environment and the public good (such as in the explosive growth in the private aviation sector), and then break down some practical ways to help solve the problem.
