ALAN WATTS SUNDAYS, 8am

(From Mark Watts at alanwatts.org)

Hi, we're so glad to be getting back in touch with you. This is our first newsletter and we'd love to show you what we are working on.

We are the Alan Watts Organization. Under the guidance of Alan's son, Mark Watts, we are working to distribute and provide avenues to interact with the recorded works of Alan Watts in ways that are both playful and meaningful. This endeavor includes archiving the original media, digitization, categorization, mastering, restoring, and curating the source material, as well as a host of other editorial and creative tasks.

Presently, the initial focus of the Alan Watts Organization is to establish a trusted repository of the current digitized works of Alan Watts, and also to continue the digitization efforts, as there are still hundreds of hours of never before distributed work. As we finalize the archiving efforts, we will also be actively participating in the furtherance of the philosophy and playfulness Alan was such a strong believer in. http://www.news@alanwatts.org

TUESDAY NIGHT, AUGUST 15

12-12:30 Vaccine Update



12:30-3:30 Clarissa Pinkola Estes, "Women Who Run With The Wolves"

First published three years before the print edition of Women Who Run With the Wolves made publishing history, this original audio edition quickly became an underground bestseller. For its insights into the inner life of women, it established Dr. Clarissa Pinkola Estés as one of the most important voices of our time in the fields of Jungian psychology, myth, and women's mysteries.

Drawing from her work as a psychoanalyst and cantadora ("keeper of the old stories"), Dr. Estés uses myths and folktales to illustrate how societies systematically strip away the feminine spirit. Through an exploration into the nature of the wild woman archetype, Dr. Estés helps listeners rediscover and free their own wild nature.

The magical storytelling, myths, and commentary on Women Who Run With the Wolves continue to inspire a new level of self-knowledge among listeners young and old.

WEDNESDAY NIGHT, AUGUST 16



12-1 Dave Emory, "For the Record #965 - Are We Going to Have a Third World War?"

Recent developments are suggestive of the ominous possibility of an imminent Third World War. We present some new information and recap and further analyze stories covered in previous programs in order to underscore and highlight the potential devastation of these events.

As the furor ("fuehrer"?) surrounding the potentially lethal political hoax known as "Russia-gate" gains momentum, it should be noted that the point man for the Trump business interests in their dealings with Russia is Felix Sater. A Russian-born immigrant, Sater is a professional criminal and a convicted felon with historical links to the Mafia. Beyond that, and more importantly, Sater is an FBI informant and a CIA contract agent: ". . . . There is every indication that the extraordinarily lenient treatment resulted from Sater playing a get-out-of-jail free card. Shortly before his secret guilty plea, Sater became a freelance operative of the Central Intelligence Agency. One of his fellow stock swindlers, Salvatore Lauria, wrote a book about it. The Scorpion and the Frog is described on its cover as 'the true story of one man's fraudulent rise and fall in the Wall Street of the nineties.' According to Lauria-and the court files that have been unsealed-Sater helped the CIA buy small missiles before they got to terrorists. He also provided other purported national security services for a reported fee of $300,000. Stories abound as to what else Sater may or may not have done in the arena of national security. . . ."

Sater was active on behalf of the Trumps in the fall of 2015: ". . . . Sater worked on a plan for a Trump Tower in Moscow as recently as the fall of 2015, but he said that had come to a halt because of Trump's presidential campaign. . . ."

Sater was initiating contact between the Russians and "Team Trump" in January of this year: " . . . . Nevertheless, in late January, Sater and a Ukrainian lawmaker reportedly met with Trump's personal lawyer, Michael Cohen, at a New York hotel. According to the [New York] Times, they discussed a plan that involved the U.S. lifting sanctions against Russia, and Cohen said he hand-delivered the plan in a sealed envelope to then-national security advisor Michael Flynn. Cohen later denied delivering the envelope to anyone in the White House, according to the Washington Post. . . ."

A stunning development concerns extreme reticence on the part of the U.S. intelligence community...

Program Highlights Include: Review of a Trump administration warning of another supposed, impending "Syrian chemical weapons strike"-a warning that has since been retracted; discussion of brilliant Nazi hacker Andrew Auerenheimer's orchestration of an "Alt-right" online intimidation campaign against CNN employees; Auerenheimer's current residence in Ukraine; the ominous possibility of the activation/manipulation of the NSA cyber-weapons installed on Russian computer networks by a third party (perhaps someone with the capabilities of the brilliant Auerenheimer); review of the observations by a German professor-opposed to Nazism/Hitler-who described the essence of what it was like, subjectively, to live through the rise of Hitler-his observation presented in the context of the ODNI's decision not to release even a fully-redacted version of the intelligence report on "Russian meddling" in the U.S. election: " . . . . . . . . What happened here was the gradual habituation of the people, little by little, to being governed by surprise, to receiving decisions deliberated in secret, to believing that the situation was so complicated that the government had to act on information which the people could not understand because of nationality security, so dangerous that even if the people the people could understand it, it could not be released because of national security. . . ."

1-2 The Ralph Nader Radio Hour

Ralph has a fascinating conversation about the billions of dollars spent on political philanthropy and what all that money is working for with David Callahan, author of 'The Givers: Wealth, Power, and Philanthropy in a New Gilded Age.' Also, Ralph answers more listener questions!

David Callahan is founder and editor of "Inside Philanthropy," a website that examines how foundations and major donors are giving away their money, and why. Mr. Callahan has written extensively on trends in philanthropy, as well as American culture, public policy and business and is author, most recently, of The Givers: Wealth, Power, and Philanthropy in a New Gilded Age.

"My book doesn't really pick sides in terms of pointing out who are the real bad guys here as much as it says, 'Hey, all of this giving by all of this politicized philanthropy really is amplifying the voice of that top - not 1% - the top .01% at a time when we're already very concerned about how much power the wealthy have.'" David Callahan, author of "The Givers: Wealth, Power, and Philanthropy in a New Gilded Age."

Initially heard on KPFK Saturdays, 10amhttp://www.ralphnaderradiohour.com



2-3 Ralph Nader Radio Hour Catch-up

Ralph talks to Democratic Congressman and constitutional law scholar Jamie Raskin about how progressives can break the Republican stranglehold on the federal government. And union organizer Jeffrey Farmer describes the pitched battle between the Teamsters and XPO Logistics, one of the largest transportation companies in the world.

Congressman Jamie Raskin represents Maryland's 8th Congressional District in the House of Representatives. He is the Vice-Ranking Member of the House Judiciary Committee, and serves on two Judiciary subcommittees: the Subcommittee on the Constitution and Civil Justice; and the Subcommittee on Crime, Terrorism, Homeland Security, and Investigation. For more than twenty-five years, Congressman Raskin has been a professor of constitutional law at American University's Washington College of Law. He authored several books, including the Washington Post bestseller Overruling Democracy: The Supreme Court versus the American People and the highly-acclaimed We the Students: Supreme Court Cases For and About America's Students.

Jeffrey Farmer is the Director of Organizing for the International Brotherhood of Teamsters, a union representing more than 1.4 million members throughout North America. A thirty-five year veteran of the labor movement, Mr. Farmer has been a member and worked for several unions before being asked by President Jim Hoffa to create a new Teamsters Organizing Department with the goal of making the Teamsters one of the largest, strongest and fasted-growing unions in North America.
