Interview with Pearse Redmond of Porkins Policy Radio, Newsbud & BFP by Abby & Robbie Martin

"Bobcat Goldthwait directed this moving documentary about comedian and peace activist Barry Crimmins. The film is masterfully structured in such a way that it starts as a typical film about an artist, who a group of people believe more people should know. Comics who were given opportunities thanks to him or have memories of his early work appear on screen. Goldthwait then hits the audience with information about a horrific experience from Crimmins’ childhood, and the film is instantly transformed into something incredible...His brash wit and knowledge of current events produce material that still is edgy today. His material is inspired by a motivation for peace and justice...It is refreshing to know there are people in the world of comedy like Barry." - Kevin Gosztola on Shadowproof.com Instead of making Barry go through the plot of 'Call Me Lucky', we spend most of the time talking about the state of the modern comedy scene & how the Reagan-era never ended.

Donald Trump's comments about arabs in New Jersey cheering from rooftops on 9/11 have sparked controversy and outrage, but what if Trump is confusing 2 different real events together and inaccurately repeating them as a memory? Is it possible that even someone as ridiculous as Trump could be a 'victim' of the intentionally racist script we were indoctrinated with on the day of 9/11 itself? Why were there 3 separate mainstream media stories between 9:40am and 1:30pm on the day of 9/11 itself that placed blame on Palestinian terrorist groups for the attacks? Robbie tries to answer all these questions and more in this solo episode of Media Roots Radio. Please donate at MediaRoots.org

US sponsored violence on the ground in Colombia has been constant for five decades, killing more than 220,000 people and displacing millions. Colombia is removed from most US foreign policy discussions, yet the American military has been more involved there than any other country in the world – including Afghanistan. From immunized war crimes to rampant rape, human rights lawyer Dan Kovalik talks about the disastrous effects of five decades of US militarism in the region and the crushing of resistance movements under the auspices of fighting the Drug War.
