Radioactive

Before CNN and Fox News, before shock jocks and powerful pundits, there was Father Charles Coughlin, an ambitious priest who invented political talk radio as we know it, brought down one president and crowned another, and was at one point considered the most powerful man in America. He was also a rabid antisemite who wrote fan mail to Mussolini and cheered on Hitler, and who used his enormous platform to spread hate.  In this 8-part podcast, Detroit journalist Andrew Lapin weaves together archival materials and incisive interviews to tell the story of Father Coughlin's alarming rise and dramatic fall. It’s a cautionary tale of how an unscrupulous bigot can manipulate mass media to spread hate and gather far too much political power. Radioactive is produced by Tablet Studios, with support from Maimonides Fund, and in association with The WNET Group’s reporting initiative, Exploring Hate: Antisemitism, Racism and Extremism.

روزها در راه

پادپخش روزها در راه، روایت بیست سال از آفتاب‌های غروب کرده و خورشد‌های برآمده بر سر این سرزمین است. از آذر 57 تا آذر 76. ما بیست سال را از دریچه چشم شاهرخ مسکوب نگاه می‌کنیم. مسکوب را می‌توان با عناوینی مثل روشنفکر و نویسنده و مترجم معرفی کرد، اما برای ما او بیش از هرکدام از اینها، یک تماشاگر دقیق و یک روایت‌گر باانصاف است. او برای ما از روزها، خبرها، اتفاق‌ها، حماسه‌ها، حال‌ها و بدحالی‌های مردم صحبت می‌کند و چه شیرین هم صحبت می‌کند.

The Flamethrowers

“The Flamethrowers” captures the punch-you-in-the-mouth energy and sound of right-wing talk radio. Host Justin Ling takes us from the fringe preachers and conspiracy peddlers of the 1920s to the political firestorm that rages today. With humour and candour, Ling examines the appeal of broadcasters like Rush Limbaugh, who found a sleeping audience, radicalized it, and became an accidental kingmaker — culminating in the election of Donald Trump.
