Phlogiston: idiosyncratic and out of context

Back in the podcast saddle with some media criticism (which is not entirely negative) of the BBC, Democracy Now!, and the economist radio. Follow and review the podcast please!

Both Meyen and Saatkulov were Soviet Uzbek composers. (Meyen was originally from St. Petersburg, but he spent most of his life in Uzbekistan.) Very obscure even in the former USSR. Saatkulov is probably better remembered because he also composed several film scores. This is a very rare record. Mezhdunarodnaya Kniga

1970-1976 when the funk meteor hit planet earth

Idiosyncratic wanderings around all popular music... and I didn't cover nearly enough, so there will have to be a part two soon. No reason to stick to one place and time.

Pays to have a vision. Just listen.

We need leaders, not bank employees.

And here is Bernie's office by way of comparison: https://soundcloud.com/will-pflaum-1/here-is-bernies-office-handling-the-same-questions-well-pays-to-have-a-vision-that-is-easy-to-remember-and-articulate

I started to write it at midnight on election day and of course it's rough but it's only a sound track for the day...

The corporate media bias and collusion with the DNC as revealed by wikileaks is serious. If you can stomach 4 days of a North Korea style propaganda show as the DNC convention, you can endure me breaking it apart in 30 minutes. I'll cover ground quick and you might need to listen twice. Awake progressive should not vote for Hillary Clinton. Do not buy into the fear Trump dynamic. Use this audio file with anyone who tries to shame a Bernie or Bust voter into approving this outrageous and anti-democratic Obama/Clinton farce. Real democracy requires first truth. We may not have troops marching into the newspaper and shutting it down or rounding people up as in Turkey, but the net affect is similar. The drone program and Obama's decision to pass his legacy over to Trump are linked -- yes, Clinton and Obama do not fear Trump and neither should you. They chose to pass the government over to Trump. Let him have it then.

In this podcast I review an exclusive article on terrorists reading Hillary Clinton's email (media: pick this up!), David Frum, a Republican complaining about Trump, some thoughts on Radiolab's recent "Buried Bodies" episode, and questions about what the law is. Is the justice system a complete fraud? Should lawyers argue about how many angels dance on the head of a pin or fix a broken system?
