FUND DRIVE SCHEDULE
We are having a mini-fund drive from December 4-16.
During this time the program guide schedule will be variable depending on pledge calls or the lack thereof. Thom Hartmann will regularly be started early so we don't have to edit him as much or at all.

3-4 Lux Radio Theater (9-14-36)
Based on the play by J.M. Barrie (1901)

Starring Ruth Chatterton and Brian Aherne
The play concerns a weary schoolteacher who poses as her younger niece in order to recapture the affections of a returning soldier.
Ten seconds of silence are observed at the end of the program to honor the memory of MGM's vice president and supervisor of production, Irving Thalberg, who had passed away at age 37 earlier that day. (From "Lux Presents Hollywood 1934-1957" by Connie Billips and Arthur Pierce)


(NOTE: If you are keeping track of the dates and notice this is an earlier show from last month's, I found a new and considerably larger collection and wanted to fill in earlier shows which weren't on the old collection.)

On the latest episode of On Contact, investigative journalist Helen Buyniski exposes Jimmy Wales’ egalitarian Wikipedia as yet another tool of the ruling elite. 'On Contact' is on KPFK Sundays, 12:30pm and Wednesday Night/Thurs morning at 1am. This is a previous show broadcast in this time slot where Wikipedia has been so thoroughly investigated.





12:30-2 Perle Besserman, "Kabbalah: The Way of the Jewish Mystic"
Part 1
Kabbalah has reached the mainstream, with people from all walks of life studying this formal meditation system from Judaism's mystical path. Yet, when Perle Besserman published the first edition of 'Kabbalah: The Way of the Jewish Mystic' over 30 years ago, fea outsiders had access to the rich lore and practices associated with it. With this audio edition of her landmark work, Besserman shares the Kabbalah 'from mouth to ear' in the oral tradition as it was originally taught almost 1000 years ago. Besserman tells how today's Kabbalists are the direct heirs to a mass movement of everyday mystics stretching back many centuries. She guides listeners through the wonders of the Kabbalah's unique system for oneness with God: the precepts for righteous living; its esoteric view of the universe' and meditation practices, including those for beginners. Kabbalah has long been thought of as 'impenetrable at best.' Now it has been made available to every listener curious about this mystical way of life.

A descendant of the Baal Shem Tov, Perle Besserman has studied Jewish mysticism with Rabbis Zvi Yehuda Kook and Aryeh Kaplan. She has written several books on mysticism, including Kabbalah: The Way of the Jewish Mystic (published under the name Perle Epstein), and is the editor of an anthology in the Shambhala Pocket Classics series, The Way of the Jewish Mystics. She presents workshops on women's spirituality around the United States and in Europe.

WEDNESDAY NIGHT, DECEMBER 5
Fund Drive Schedule



12-1 Dave Emory, "For the Record #1029 - The Will to Create Man Anew" : Eugenics, Past, Present, and Future"


Adolf Hitler: “National Socialism . . . . is more even than a religion: it is the will to create man anew.”


In numerous programs, we have touched on eugenics and some of the outcomes of eugenics philosophy, including the growth of the Nazi extermination programs from the Knauer case. Some of these programs are: FTR #’s 32, 117, 124, 140, 141, 534, 664, and 908. A look at future possibilities of eugenics–something that we discuss in this program–are highlighted in FTR #909 and AFA #39.


Important book on the subject include The War Against the Weak, by Edwin Black and The Nazi Connection by Stephan Kuhl. In FTR #1013, we recapped Peter Levenda’s prescient analysis of the overlap between eugenics and fascist iterations of anti-immigrant sentiment. In this broadcast, eugenics, anti-immigration sentiment, genetic engineering and the “immortality-striving” Transhumanist movement are highlighted, noting the progression from the fascism of the 1930’s to imminent steps that would augment the ascension of a truly “superhuman” elite, to the ultimately lethal detriment of the rest of society.


We begin with prognostications about the future....

Fund Drive Schedule





12-1 Alan Watts,
"Reflecting the Mirror" Part 1 of 4
"A discussion of the many aspects of the problem of 'observing the observer' and 'knowing the knower,' an enterprise that seems always to come to a dead end or to impenetrable mystery. But perhaps the very difficult of the problem provides a clue to its answer. This is, of course, the central problem of self-realization as approached through the spiritual disciplines of Yoga, Zen, and Taoism." (AW)
