11:00 a.m. Martin Luther King on the Three Evils of Society

A nearly forgotten speech given by Dr. King at the first and only National Conference for New Politics (see, we’ve been at this crap for a long time), focusing on war, racism and poverty.

1:00 p.m. Emmylou Harris: Rare Tracks and Forgotten Gems

This is our very first hour featuring Emmylou Harris, but I promise it will not be our last! Some of Emmylou’s friends come along for the ride.

4:00 p.m. War with Russia?

Chris Hedges interviews Stephen F. Cohen, professor emeritus of Russian Studies at Princeton University on the dangerous game we are playing with Russia.

8:00 p.m. The All-Girl Revue

No day dedicated to the women of rock would be complete without one of one of my very favorite playlists, so enjoy!

US-investment-in-5G

Good Morning, Ungovernables! TGIF and all that stuff, right? Unless you’re in retail, like I am. No matter. We’ve got a great lineup for you today here!

11:00 a.m. In the Spotlight: The Music of Steely Dan

These guys made some of the most innovative music on the planet in that sleek jazz-rock style. A great band.

2:00 p.m. Dr. Martin Pall on the Health Dangers of 5G

Dr. Martin Pall of the Biochemistry Department at Washington State University discusses the health dangers of the looming 5G techology. We think this is a very dangerous technology and encourage you to also look here.

5:00 p.m. Petty Theft: The Covers

No matter where they played, Tom Petty & The Heartbreakers paid homage to those who inspired them and had an effect on their success. Here, the Heartbreakers do their mentors proud covering Chuck Berry, The Beatles, The Grateful Dead and Bo Diddly. One of my favorite playlists EVAH.

8:00 p.m. Chris Hedges: Fascism in the Age of Trump

There are no solutions on eiher side, unfortunately. Many think Donald Trump was sent to “drain the swamp.” The exact opposite is true, despite those who remain delusional. Donald Trump is a product of a very sick system, much like his 2016 challenger, The Hillarious One. But make no mistake about it. Our present march to fascism, and it is happening, is being led by The Orange Scourge.

Remember, to check out the Playlist tab for content!

Note: We will again be uploading a bunch of new material over the weekend, and it will require shutting the server down. Time is TBD, but we will be sure it is later in the evening.

Good Morning, Ungovernables! Hope you’re all doing well this fine morning, and here is your programming on #BecomeUngovernable Radio.

Beatles Rock the Rooftop

10:00 a.m. The Beatles Rock the Apple Studios Rooftop (1969)

Long after their touring days ended, the Beatles decided to conduct an unannounced, improptu concert during lunch hour to the thrill of the people below. The London police, however, were not so thrilled with the resulting traffic, and eventually shut the boys down. But not before they gave their countrymates one hell of a performance!

1:00 p.m. Chris Hedges and George Galloway

Chris Hedges interviews former British P.M. George Galloway on the state of politics in both the U.S. and the U.K. They touch on a wide range of subjects, including populism, racism, islamaphobia and antisemitism. Don’t miss this one!

3:00 p.m. In the Spotlight: The Music of The Rolling Stones

A musical revue of Mick Jagger and the boys, still on the road making music for the masses.

7:00 p.m. Happy 73rd Birthday, Linda Ronstadt! Live in Hollywood 1980!

Linda Ronstadt turned 73 years old on July 15. Although Parkinsons Disease may have silenced her voice, she’ll always have a voice on #BecomeUngovernable Radio. Today, we pay homage with her live performance in Hollywood in 1980.

We start at 6:00 a.m. and we don’t stop until midnight. Join us on #BecomeUngovernable Radio.

Pulitzer Prize-winning journalist Chris Hedges talks about life in the Empire of Illusion, and how everything is not as it seems.

7:00 p.m. Let It Be Naked

By the time the Beatles’ final album rolled around, they were just about ready to kill each other. In fact, they did not record together for much of the album. At the end, John Lennon packed up the takes and brought them to Phil Spector. Yes, that Phil Spector. He added his famous (or infamous, depending upon how you look at it) wall of sound and — with Lennon’s blessing — the album was released.

Let It Be Naked is the original version of the album as it was intended to be released — without Spector’s heavy hand

Our first presentation of the ultimate road band, Jerry Garcia and the Grateful Dead.

The memories remain, however, as I spent many hours of my youth there seeing some great bands.

Tune in today to #BecomeUngovernable Radio!

4:00 p.m. The Secret World of U.S. Elections

Journalist John Pilger spends some time talking to Julian Assange of WikiLeaks about the state of our nation’s election cycle. With November 2020 looming on the horizon, this is a timely interview.

Like Chris Hedges and George Galloway, we expect Dr. Paul Craig Roberts to be a fixture on this station. He is an important voice in our movement, and this is a great jumping off point.

Good Morning, Ungovernables! Here is your special programming for today!

11:00 a.m. In the Spotlight: The Music of Linda Ronstadt

An amazing talent has been silenced by the ravages of Parkinson’s Disease, but she’s left us a musical history like no other female singer of her generation, spanning every possible kind of music there is. Today, we put Linda Ronstadt in the spotlight she so richly deserves.

2:30 p.m. Chris Hedges on America’s Sacrifice Zones

Listen as Chris Hedges talks about communities destroyed by mankind and left to die on the vine. Flint, Michigan, is but one such sacrifice zone.

4:00 p.m. Tom Petty & The Heartbreakers: Live in Chicago (2003)

Tom Petty & The Heartbreakers deliver a kick-ass performance in Chicago in 2003. It’s one for the books, folks.

Programming for Thursday, July 11, 2019

Good Morning, Ungovernables. We start out the day the way we usually do, with non-stop rock, rhythm and blues, and then we move into our specific set lists and informational shows.

We operate from 6:00 a.m. EST until midnight. (Occasionally, the station will be taken down earlier for maintenance and update.)

Here is our planned programming for Thursday, July 11, 2019.

9:00 a.m. Steve Winwood and Eric Clapton Live From Madison Square Garden, February 2008

If ever two names defined “legendary,” these are the guys. Clapton has had an illustrious solo career, but started with Cream, the Yardbirds, Blind Faith, and Derek & The Dominoes. Winwood the same, having enjoyed time with the Spencer Davis Group, Traffic, and Blind Faith (with Clapton). This set is taken from their historic live performance at New York’s Madison Square Garden in February of 2008.

Winwood-Clapton

3:00 p.m. Chris Hedges on the Wages of Rebellion

In 2015, Chris Hedges wrote a book called The Wages of Rebellion: The Moral Imperative of Revolt. Although written for years ago, his message resonates today. Not much has changed, and we’re the only ones who can effect change — from outside this system.

6:00 p.m. In the Spotlight: The Music of Steely Dan

One of the finest bands to ever strap on a couple of guitars, Steely Dan offers a great library of innovative sound. Sit back and enjoy! Walter Becker and Donald Fagan are truly musical geniuses.

8:00 p.m. America’s Three Holy Wars with Howard Zinn

Our first broadcast featuring Howard Zinn. In this nearly hour-long talk, he discusses what he calls America’s three “holy wars.” These are the wars we are not allowed to criticize — The Revolutionary War, The Civil War, and World War II.

Welcome to Day One!

Welcome to what feels to me like the umpteenth introduction of #BecomeUngovernable Radio. I promise, however, this one is for real. I promise to try daily to post special programming. Not only will we have some of the best music around, but we’ll have podcasts, interviews and, eventually, “live on air” programs.

Become Ungovernable Radio Intro-FINAL

#BecomeUngovernable Radio operates from 6 a.m. to midnight every day. All times are Eastern Standard Time. Times may change or be adjusted as demand requires and our audience grows!

At present, we have about 25,600 of our 50,000 songs uploaded. We will continue to upload over the next several weeks. As we upload more, we will add more special programming.

For our official “launch” on Sunday, July 7, here is the planned special programming that will break up what we call the “General Rotation” (which we hope you will love).

9:00 a.m. That Sweet Soul Sound

Generally speaking, a classic Motown play list featuring Marvin Gaye, The Temptations, and Aretha Franklin, to mention just a few.

1:00 p.m. Tom Petty & The Heartbreakers, Live from Lucca, Italy (2012)

You haven’t experienced the Heartbreakers if you haven’t experienced them “live.”

4:00 p.m. Interview: Chris Hedges with WikiLeaks editor-in-chief Kristinn Hrafnsson

The politically-motivated imprisonment of Julian Assange and continued persecution of Chelsea Manning are issues of prime importance to us. This is an excellent and timely interview.

7:00 p.m. Linda Ronstadt, Live in Hollywood (1980)

Despite a prolific career, there has never been an official Linda Ronstadt “live” album until February of this year. All songs were chosen by Linda Ronstadt for this amazing performance coinciding with the release of Mad Love.
