… and on next week’s show we’ll be featuring an interview with Drew Thomas of Greenpeace in Urbana-Champaign, where we talk about a solar-powered concert they ran in Urbana, as well as their campaign on the ground to push for better policy solutions. If you just can’t wait, you can get to the audio here.
You can listen to our latest show online here or here. Yesterday’s show included discussion of Carter’s visit to Palestine as well as an interview with Allison Hantschel about Douglas Feith (the focus of her book, Special Plans). Note that we’re now sharing our content on Audioport, radio.indymedia.org and from the WRFU site. If you’re interested in re-broadcasting the show you can grab it from any of these sources - though do let me know, so I know who’s depending on downloads from which sources, by what deadlines. At present I’m getting Audioport up by Thursday night, and try to get it onto either radio.indymedia.org or WRFU by Thursday too, with links added here, and the third audio source, by some time Friday.
Today we started with the Interworld Radio headlines, as usual, and then played some actuality from yesterday’s vigil at the veterans’ memorial in Urbana, marking 5 years of war in Iraq. Following some short discussion of the vigil, and an aborted start to an excerpt from the Winter Soldier event, we cut to an interview being conducted with Bob, live on WRFU, by broadcasters from Radio Adelaide’s Back Story. We closed out the show with the compilation from Winter Soldier (compiled by Pacifica) and a discussion of the role of such events and of independent media in providing coverage.
