The Commentary Magazine Podcast - The Stakes in Gaza

Today's podcast takes up a conversation between Israeli official Ron Dermer and our friend Dan Senor in which Dermer says a failure to secure victory in Gaza means Israel "has no future."

Up First from NPR - Auto Emissions Rules, Alabama DEI Law, Reddit Goes Public

The Biden administration gives electric vehicles a jolt — with new EPA rules that aim to make two-thirds of new cars, trucks and SUVs electric or hybrid by 2032. Alabama follows other conservative states by banning public schools and universities from spending money on diversity, equity, and inclusion. And some of Reddit's most loyal users are so upset the company is going public, they might try to bet against its stock.

Honestly with Bari Weiss - The Free Press in Israel Part 3: The Gathering Storm

Today, we close out the Israel series with a conversation with the journalist Haviv Rettig Gur, who is one of the most important and insightful writers of our time on Israel and the Middle East.


We talk about many things, including: the uncertain future for Israelis, for Palestinians, and for Jews around the world; the larger fight happening within Islam that this war represents; what progressives in the West don’t understand about that fight, or about the Middle East more generally; and why ordinary Americans need to understand that history has not ended—and that we’re still very much living inside it.


Today, Part 3 of The Free Press in Israel: The Gathering Storm.

the memory palace - Episode 214: Newsboy

The Memory Palace is a proud member of Radiotopia from PRX.

Music

  • Un geant dans la mer and Triste soiree III from the score to Marie et les naufrages by the genius, Sebastian Tellier. 
  • Love is Blue by Jackie Mittoo and the Soul Vendors.
  • Rocky Passage by Jeremiah Chiu and Marta Sofia Honer
  • Morris Visits Dr. Pratt from John Barry's score to The Wrong Box
  • Adios Muchachos from Andre Popp
  • Moonlight in Vermont from the great Dorothy Ashby. 
  • Midnight Moon by The Portland Cello Project
  • Dance PM by Hiroshi Yoshimura
  • And we hear Blind Andy Jenkins' "Floyd Collins in Sand Cave" followed by Vernon Dalhart doing the same song under the name, "The Death of Floyd Collins." We also hear Jimmy Osbourne do Andy's, "The Death of Little Kathy Fiscus."

Notes

  • I have a note in my years-long running list of possible story ideas that says, "event songs," but I could never remember why. Then I was reading Charles Hirschberg and Mark Zwonitzer's, Will You Miss me When I'm Gone?: The Carter Family & Their Legacy in American Music and was reminded of Andy's story (that book is great).
  • I also recommend the always-useful, Country Music USA, by Bill C. Malone for more on Andy and his era as well as Creating Country Music: Fabricating Authenticity by Richard A. Peterson.
  • If you want more about poor Floyd Collins, you could turn to Robert K. Murray and Roger W. Bruckner's, Trapped!: The Story of Floyd Collins.
