Planet Waves FM is presented free from commercial interruption.


In tonight's edition, I look at the Charlie Hebdo massacre from several different angles -- why it is that we're confronted by tragedies like this over and over; the real state of "free speech" in France; the absurd hypocrisy of leaders from across Europe posing for a photo supporting free speech (while most of them prosecute journalists); and the astrology of the incident and what it says to me. At the top of the program I give an overview of the current astrology including the Sun's last days in Capricorn; Mars in Pisces and Mars conjunct Neptune; the Sun ingressing Aquarius, the Aquarius New Moon and Mercury retrograde in Aquarius. Did I say Aquarius? I think I did! My musical guest is bluegrass supergroup Old and In the Way.

In tonight's edition, I consider the life and ideas of the late NY Gov. Mario Cuomo, telling a personal story wherein he helped me crack one of the most challenging stories I've ever written, involving the safety of 1,300 students living in toxic dormitories. In addition to looking at the current astrology, I offer some thoughts on the 10th anniversary of Eris, the planetary discovery that compelled astronomers to define the word 'planet' for the first time. My musical guest is the magnificent Jane Siberry.

In tonight's edition I sign off on 2014, roll some credits and comment on why I cut back my TV watching by 98%. This includes one last visit for the year with Marshall McLuhan and his grandson Andrew McLuhan. The central concept of my decision involves the way that TV drags us to the scene of every disaster. Along the way, I look at some ideas in the book Understand Media.I also fill in a bit about the history of the Uranus-Pluto cycle going back to the Sixties and the Uranus-Pluto square back to 2008 -- with a look at the astrology of 2015.   This program is sponsored by our Core Community members.
