Show #6 (2012-11-9)

Includes a song my old band from the 80’s recorded last year (at home via internet) dedicated to all the popular uprising around the world and the righteous rage behind them.

Lyrics are by Eyal Linur & Myself (Beni Balak) with the help of my kids Felix & Thalia.

Let me tell you a tale about this angry old hound,
who decided one day to simply bite off the hand,
that for so many years had been feeding him shit,
it’s the day that the pigs are put into the pit!!
Even sheep on the farm understand on their own:
The fat pigs, are in charge of our world and out home.
But every pig, has it’s day and that day has arrived,
Cause the dogs are all here and no pig will survive!

To kill ‘em all — before they’re too big!
To kill ‘em all — in the day of the pigs
To kill ‘em all — before they’re too big!
To kill ‘em all

If your feeling sexy, when you’re stressed and wild.
Let it out of you, Act it out outside.
What a macho man, hot with righteous rage.
Go and kill ‘em all, So it won’t be me!

You can try, you can run, you can call the police.
You can hide, you can hold up a white flag — oh please!
You can scream out for help, from your private militia,
it’s too late, the mad dogs; we are already with ya!
You can crawl on your knees to the basement and hide.
You can cry, make some calls, offer deals on the side.
Take a pick or a shovel, get ready to dig,
It’s the day of the dogs and the night of the pigs!

We spent the hour with Viki Nantz (The Uterati, Fighting Back in the War on Women, 2012)

Here most recent film:

The Uterati, Fighting Back in the War on Women
In 2011 A.D., the word uterus was banned from the Florida House of Representatives, even as GOP members in that room were voting to regulate all uteruses across the state via 18 anti-choice bills.  As these extremists and their national leaders continue their war to limit access to contraception, women’s health care clinics, comprehensive sex education and abortion services, the Uterati are fighting mad and are fighting back!  Join Susannah Randolph, Sue Idtensohn, Sally Blackmun, Jenna Tosh, Martha Haynie and Joyce Hamilton Henry as they stand up against the GOP’s war on women, and stand up for the full emancipation of women everywhere.  Also featuring Rev. Bryan Fulwider, Joe Saunders, Shirley Jantzen, Pat Scully, Ida Eskamani, Alexa Nelen and and many others.

Continued our eclectic discussion about the economics taboos you don’t hear about in pop-economics on the mainstream media.  Show#3 (2012-10-19)

We played one of my all time favorite songs by The Clash, Guns of Brixton (from the London Calling LP):

“When they kick out your front door
How you gonna come?
With your hands on your head
Or on the trigger of your gun

When the law break in
How you gonna go?
Shot down on the pavement
Or waiting in death row

You can crush us
You can bruise us
But you’ll have to answer too
Oh, Guns of Brixton

The money feels good
And your life you like it well
But surely your time will come
As in heaven, as in hell”
